The best wedding supplier you can find!
Without Andy, Debbie and their team our wedding certainly wouldn’t have been the same. From initially meeting Andy and Debbie a at our menu tasting session, to saying goodbye at the end of the night on our wedding day (this bit is a little blurry!) Buen Apetito have been an absolute pleasure to communicate and work with.
The menu tasting was one of our favorite planning experiences and it was a really special evening for both of us and our families to spend the evening trying lots of extremely delicious food. It was also great to spend some time with Andy and Debbie and we all felt so reassured and excited to know they would be joining us on our big day.
Planning a wedding can feel stressful and overwhelming at times but Andy was always at the end of the phone to help with any questions, advice or just to give us some reassurance we had everything under control.
On our wedding day, the food was fantastic. Having Paella cooking in front of our guests added to the atmosphere and certainly made everyone hungry! So many of our friends and family said how delicious both the paella for our wedding breakfast and pulled pork buns in the evening were – many of them having seconds!
Buen Apetito were not just our caterers, but they also provided the cutlery and plates, poured and served our welcome drinks and delicious (even keeping a secret canape stash for Liam and I), served our wedding breakfast, adapted timings as and when needed, helped clear plates and glasses, served our evening food and became great friends for the weekend!
We cannot recommend Andy and the team enough. THANK YOU!Without Andy, Debbie and their team our wedding certainly wouldn’t have been the same.

Our guest are still talking about the food
WOW. Is all I can say about the service and food. From the start of enquiring all the way to the day of our wedding Andy, Debbie and team were there every step of the way. Nothing was too much for them and our guests are still saying how amazing the food was. We researched a lot into catering especially as we knew that Paella and tapas was the one thing we desperately wanted and so glad we booked the BEST in the business. Thank you so much Andy, Debbie and team you made our day perfect.WOW. Is all I can say about the service and food.

Christine & Dan – 5th November 2016
110 GUESTS @ BRISTOL
We had Buen Apetito for our wedding a few weeks ago. From start to finish they were just incredible! Nothing was too much trouble, they travelled to our home so that we could sample some lovely desserts and go through everything before the big day.
They arrived early on the morning of the wedding, set out all the tables with beautiful dishes to eat three different types of paella from. They also catered for the fussy children at our wedding who wanted burgers instead.
The food was amazing!! Chicken and chorizo, seafood and vegetarian paellas, all which were gluten free too.. 2 cheesecakes and a double chocolate cake for dessert which were also gluten free and SO delicious!
We then had burgers in the evening, which received so many compliments from our guests. The day ran so smoothly!
The staff were so professional and friendly.. the lady who runs the venue was so impressed that she has put them on her recommendation list!
Great job guys! Thank you so much!

80 GUESTS @ CALSTOCK, CORNWALL
Just wanted to thank you once again for all the hard work that you both put in to helping make Lois and John’s wedding such a happy occasion!

Paul and I feel it was a great success, so well done to you all.
We would not hesitate to recommend you, you really were a pleasure to do businesss with!

Gabrielle & Huw – 28th January 2017
160 GUESTS @ LONDON
From the first telephone call until after our wedding, Andy, Debbie and the whole team could not have done enough for us. They were professional, polite and willing to go above and beyond to make our special day one to remember.
The food was delicious (we had canapés, paella, desserts and pasties & chorizo & halloumi brioches for the evening buffet). They were constantly working throughout the day, serving food, drinks and running the bar. It was the perfect choice for us as we wanted something a bit different to meat and two veg for the wedding food, and as they were completely self sufficient, there was no problem with catering for us in our tipi marquees.
Our guests were so complimentary of the staff and food, which goes to show the dedication to the service they provide.
We would wholly recommend Buen Apetito caterers.

Molly & Lex – 2nd June 2017
110 GUESTS @ BRISTOL
We employed Buen Apetito to cater for my daughter, Molly’s, wedding on 2nd June 2017.
The wedding was held in a marquee in our garden and we chose to serve paella, prepared by Andy and his team, as a main course, along with starters and sweets.
From the earliest days of planning right through to the day itself Buen Apetito proved to be a fantastic choice. Nothing was too much trouble, and as Molly’s plans developed over the months before “the day” she was in regular contact with Andy with new ideas, requests and suggestions all of which were met with a really positive and helpful response, even if the requests involved drink which they hadn’t provided. These people are “yes” people! It was obvious from the start that they genuinely wanted to help to make the wedding a massive success and their involvement meant that any anxiety and worry we might have had about things like detail and timings were absorbed by Andy’s team. They served the fizz, they made the coffee, they moved the furniture, they manned the bar, they dealt with the rubbish, they cleared away, they simply managed all those countless details often forgotten with discreet professionalism and without any fuss!
And not only that, they cooked delicious paellas, piping hot and served in individual traditional bowls by swift and smiling staff.
So, a really big THANK YOU to Andy, Debbie and their staff for making our special day such a success.
l have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Buen Apetito to anyone considering a similar function, and I have given Andy my phone number should potential customers wish to speak to me directly.

Rosie & Steve – 27th May 2017
110 GUESTS - BEACONSIDE HOUSE
For our wedding, Andy and the Buen Apetito team served Paella for our main meal as part of a 3 course wedding breakfast, as well as doing canapes after the ceremony, burgers and pasties in the evening, and serving drinks throughout the day and evening. Having our wedding at a country house with marquee, a venue with no catering included, it was fantastic to find one catering company that did everything we wanted, including serving the drinks for our free bar.
We wanted something a bit different from standard 3 course meal, but a bit more formal than a buffet. Paellas were served in smaller sharing paellas (pans) in the middle of each table and was the perfect solution for us. They offered this full package at a brilliant price too!
Andy and Debbie were very flexible, adapting to provide the catering in exactly the way we wanted, offering just the right amount of advice to us. It was a pleasure working through the plans with them. On the day, the food was delicious with many compliments from our guests, and we didn’t have to worry about a thing all day as the Buen Apetito team provided great service and food throughout. I’m very glad we chose Buen Apetito for our wedding catering and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone who is deciding on their wedding catering options.

Jo & Rob – July 2017
116 GUESTS @ UPLOWMAN
Andy and Debbie were fantastic throughout our entire wedding planning process. Really responsive, always helpful and flexible to our (my) requests- even doing banoffee pie for us especially, which wasn’t on the menu at the time!
We had a lovely evening tasting all the canapes and paella and they were so friendly and welcoming. In the run up to the wedding they were always there ready to answer any questions and being massively helpful. It was so reassuring and we felt safe knowing that they would be there, knowing exactly what to do, ensuring things ran smoothly.
They arrived promptly (before us actually!) to set up the day before and early in the morning on the day itself. When we arrived at the venue it smelt INCREDIBLE and everything was under control, with waitresses serving drinks and canapes. The 3 paellas looked amazing… such a spectacle. The canapes were all lovely and the paella went down a storm (even with the fussy eaters!), most people had seconds and many had thirds.
Everyone commented on how wonderful the food was. Their paella is the absolute BEST we have ever tasted. The desserts were all delicious too (especially the banoffee pie!) and all at incredibly good value.
Andy and Debbie and their staff were so friendly and lovely to deal with, from start to finish, whilst being ultra professional and efficient. We can’t recommend them highly enough. We would like to do it all over again!
