Very happy memories
It was a wonderful experience creating a menu for my daughters wedding with james. He was completely on board with the theme of the wedding and created fantastic food that suited all our guest from vegans to meat eaters. We have many happy memories of that day and having the food completely taken care of gave me the opportunity to be to enjoy every moment.
I recomand JD catering to anyone who wants wonderful stress free food on their wedding day.

A truly memorable meal
James and his team were totally wonderful to work with. From the first point of contact, whilst casting around for quotes and ideas from various caterers, James was very responsive and really understood what we were asking for and the nature of our meal.
In theory it was a fairly straightforward request: a three-course, sit-down meal (with canapés beforehand) for 20 people. The snag: the kitchen was four floors higher! James saw this as no problem and was pragmatic and solved problems readily: he considered the menu choices and then made arrangements to hire a catering trolley.
The food was superb. The canapés were mouth-watering and morish - everyone then waiting eagerly for the meal itself - and the lunch was excellent: full of flavour and beautifully presented.
Everyone had had a choice between two dishes for each course (notified in advance) and James was mindful to check for any dietary requirements.
The experience was so good that, a few months later, I booked JD Catering Services again for a gourmet buffet lunch. Again it was a wonderful experience - and I don't think a recommendation could come stronger than that.
