Words can’t really do justice to how grateful we are for having Homegrown cater for our wedding (April 2024). As a newly diagnosed coeliac, I was nervous about finding a caterer who would put me at ease for the wedding food. Alice, Ellie and the team put us at ease from the start, saying that they would be able to cater for the whole wedding menu being gluten free. We thought the gluten free Yorkshire pudding request might be a tough ask, but Alice went above and beyond to ensure the recipe was perfect, so much so that our guests didn’t even know any different. This was the same for other elements of our menu that needed to be tweaked to enable it to be gluten free. Alice even managed to source some gluten free pastry for one of the canapés that we had.
The food was absolutely sublime, and we’ve had so many guests commenting that it’s some of the best wedding food they’ve ever tasted. The “Nice and Toastie” van for our evening food couldn’t have been a bigger hit. It was something so unique, and the toasties themselves were delicious.
We also had Homegrown cater for our evening before the wedding, and they did a full English breakfast for us the morning after. Again, the food was wonderful, and having that pressure off, knowing everything was in hand just helped the whole weekend to feel relaxed for everyone.
Ellie’s attention to detail throughout the whole planning process really put us at ease from the outset, and she was so lovely to work with in the run up to, and on the day itself. The rest of the staff who were there throughout the whole weekend were wonderful, and we’re so grateful to everyone who helped to make the food for our weekend just perfect.
We couldn’t recommend Homegrown Hospitality any more if we tried.

From the first meeting with Ellie, we knew they were the perfect caterers for us. She listened to what we wanted and took in to account all of our preferences to create the perfect menu. She was also the calming presence on the day that meant we had 100% confidence everything was going to run smoothly.

Chef Alice created some unreal food for the day. The guests are still talking about the sausage & mash now.

A huge thank you to Ellie & Alice and all of the Homegrown team!!

Couldn’t recommend highly enough

If you need a caterer then look no further - this company was absolutely incredible. The food was incredible from the snackapes to the kebabs on the evening. When we’ve spoken to people since the wedding, all they talk about is the food! Ellie was incredible and helped us arrange the day! She went above and beyond and we cannot thank her enough. She even helped us last minute as our wedding co-ordinator quit and saved the day with teas and coffees.
Thank You again for everything! ❤️ hopefully our paths will cross again!

We hired Homegrown Hospitality to cater our wedding and they did not disappoint.
From the first phone call to the last, it was a dream. The only part of the wedding that we never worried or stressed about was the catering.
On the day Alice, Ellie and the team were so organised, friendly and totally exceeded all of our expectations. The compliments they received from not only us, but all our guests were outstanding.

A huge huge thank you to the team at Homegrown for looking after us from day 1! You helped us create the perfect day. You’re all absolutely fantastic and we loved celebrating with you. Thank you for all your help and advice along the way, forever grateful to you all. Thank you 🤍

I could not recommend Ellie and the team here more! They did the catering for our wedding at The Merchant's Adventurer's Hall in York and truly made our day all the more special!

They hosted us for a glorious tasting before the wedding and everything they did for us was done with a smile and such joy! The food was incredible! Particularly the Yorkshire Puddings!!

They thought of absolutely everything we needed and were a pleasure from start to finish! Book them before it's too late!!

I would just like to say a big thank you for your help and assistance during Zoe’s wedding day. The food was magnificent, above our expectations and people are still talking about the food! Your food and services were first class and I will certainly recommend you to anyone who is looking for an outside caterer. I also would like to say thank you to your staff (please pass it on to them) I’ve never met such a lovely friendly and efficient ladies, nothing was too much trouble for them, they are a credit to Homegrown. I wish you all the best Alice and thanks again for making Zoe & Ricky’s day memorable.
