Diamond Wedding Anniversary Family Garden Party

We recently had a relaxed afternoon garden party for my parents diamond wedding anniversary celebrations.

After a huge amount of organisation on our part, to get everything just right for them and the family, we wanted the food to be just as perfect, and it was. Alan's team swung into action. Having set up and prepared with no fuss, Lisa and Toby served welcome drinks and canapés on the lawn, followed by a celebration BBQ meal, and finished off with home made desserts and cheese. The delivery was understated and relaxed and everything was served with a smile. And at the end, everything magically cleared away. Perfect! I highly recommend The Corporate Chef for family celebrations.

Pre-wedding BBQ

Corporate Chef catered for our pre-wedding BBQ, the night before our big day. The food and service they provided was top tier and we had so many compliments from our guests. They were easy to deal with throughout the booking process and no request was ever too much. I would 100% recommend.

Amazing food at our wedding!

We couldn't be happier with The Corporate Chef for our wedding catering and bar service.

From start to finish, Alan, Ilaria and their team provided outstanding service and absolutely delicious food (every bit as good as the tasting). They were incredibly flexible and collaborative in working with us to design our canape and wedding breakfast menu, accommodating dietary requirements and tweaks to the menu with ease.

On the day, the food was beautifully presented and cooked to perfection. Many of our guests commented on how amazing everything tasted, especially the Slow Roast Lamb Shoulder. The service at the wedding breakfast was great, with the whole of each table being served at the same time.

The staff were professional, attentive and helped everything run smoothly. We were impressed by their ability to deliver such high quality from their temporary kitchen setup.

The bar team were also great and lots of people commented on what a great job Peter had done in running the bar.

Alan, Ilaria and Ella were all very responsive and helpful throughout the planning process, putting us at ease and making the catering side of things stress-free. For example, even little things like helping us work out how much glassware to hire were a massive help. The pricing on the website was very clear and there weren’t any surprises.

Alan and Ilaria also came to our dry hire venue for a site visit and helped us plan where the temporary kitchen would go and where we could put the bar. They answered all of our many questions and really helped ensure it was the best day ever!

We would love to use the corporate chef again in the future and would strongly recommend them to anyone else.

Fantastic food, fantastic team

Alan was great to work with in the run up to the wedding working out the BBQ menu and costs etc. Very responsive to emails and nice to talk to on Zoom. We had multiple dietry needs among our guests and Alan figured out a fab menu to cater for everyone. The food was amazing (especially the chicken) and our guests kept telling us how good the food was! Alan's team were also really lovely which just added to the atmosphere. I would recommend to anyone.

Wedding Caterer

Alan and his team catered for our wedding last weekend and we could not have asked for more from him and his team.
We went for a choice of canapés, a two course wedding breakfast with petit fours and teas and the fish and chip cones and veg pakora in the evening. Everything we tried was perfect (the pork belly main was the best pork we had ever eaten!) and the portion sizes were very generous and prices very competitive. All our friends commented on how wonderful the food was! His staff were extremely attentive and checked in that my husband and I had been served at least one of each of the canapés which was really helpful while we were busy! We also paid for some staff to help with running a self serve bar and clearing up during the day. All staff worked non stop during the day and despite being run off their feet were friendly to everyone throughout the event. When things got a bit chaotic in the evening his staff took the initiative to serve from behind the bar which was definitely needed! Alan was also very helpful during the planning of our event and making suggestions to help the day run smoothly. Thank you Alan & your team you really made our day!

Wedding Catering

We originally found The Corporate Chef on a recommendation from one of our other wedding suppliers. We decided to book in for a tasting in which Alan came to our home and cooked for us - it was great and we decide to go ahead with the booking.
Our wedding was at my parents house in a marquee with 120 guests to cater for. The day went smoothly, the tables all looked fantastic with Alans team setting up the cutlery & glass wear. The staff on the day were all friendly and professional and would we definitely use the corporate chef again.
Now to talk about the food. All of the food was fantastic but especially the Goats cheese Brulee! A definite 10/10 and lots of wedding guest have even asked for the recipe. Alan listened and took on board all our ideas for the desserts, and they were absolutely superb.
Overall we were delighted with our experience with The Corporate chef and would definitely recommend them.
