Today we had the absolute pleasure of catering for Diane and Francis’s beautiful wedding at the magical Millbrook Estate. We love working closely with our couples to create truly bespoke menus that reflect their favourite flavours, personalities and vision for their special day. Every wedding is wonderfully different, and it was such a privilege to play a small part in Diane and Francis’s celebrations. Wishing this gorgeous couple a lifetime filled with love, laughter and happiness. 🥂

Julie and John’s fabulous micro wedding at the magical Shotts House was an intimate celebration filled with love, laughter and wonderful food. Their wedding feast began with pheasant pâté, salmon pâté and a refreshing heritage tomato and burrata salad, followed by a beautifully traditional roast dinner with all the trimmings. To finish, guests enjoyed an indulgent selection of cheesecake, molten chocolate lava pudding, apple tarte Tatin and a delicious cheese course—the perfect menu for such a very special day. Congratulations, Julie and John! ❤️

Who doesn’t love a proper retro buffet?

We took a delicious trip back to the 1970s with a table packed full of nostalgic favourites: homemade sausage rolls, Scotch eggs, vol-au-vents, sliced ham, cocktail sausages, potato salad, pickles and plenty of other much-loved classics.

There’s something wonderfully joyful about this kind of food. It’s generous, familiar and made for sharing although we gave everything the La Petite Bouchée treatment, using quality ingredients and making as much as possible from scratch.

A fabulous feast full of colour, flavour and just the right amount of nostalgia. Now, who’s ready to bring back the cheese-and-pineapple hedgehog?

We were absolutely thrilled to receive this wonderful feedback from Ellie and Alex, who celebrated their wedding at the beautiful Intimate Wedding Venue Tree Top Escape on 3rd September.

Working closely with them, we created a bespoke Devon Coast and Land menu inspired by their Devon childhoods and the exceptional produce found across our coast and countryside. Every detail was carefully considered to ensure the food felt personal to them and perfectly suited their special day.

At La Petite Bouchée, we believe your menu should be as individual as your celebration. Whether you already have a clear vision or would like us to guide you through the possibilities, we’ll work with you to refine every course and create your perfect menu one that reflects your tastes, your story and the season.

From the first ideas to the final plate, it’s a collaborative process designed entirely around you.

Two days, two venues and one very special wedding celebration.

It is always a huge privilege to cook for someone’s wedding, but this one felt particularly special. We have loved getting to know Abi and Geoff over the past 15 months while they’ve been planning their weekend, and we genuinely wanted every detail to be just right for them.

The celebrations began at Tree Top Escape with their intimate family wedding: canapés, a bespoke three-course dinner and quite possibly the largest cheeseboard we have ever created much of which is now apparently residing in the father of the bride’s fridge!🤣

From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so welcome. It was a wonderful day, filled with warmth, laughter and genuinely lovely people.

Then it was back into the kitchen at 6am the following morning to prepare for 150 guests aboard MS Oldenburg at Bideford Quay. Delivering 1,250 canapés on a working ship, while navigating the wind, moving guests and the occasional flying ch*****ne flute, certainly kept us on our toes. Once we found our rhythm, the whole team came together brilliantly.

Abi and Geoff were an absolute joy to work with. Across both days, they made everyone feel appreciated and valued and that kind of warmth makes you want to raise the bar even higher. Abi mentions the importance of clear communication in her review and we couldn’t agree more. It’s always at the centre of everything we do.

I could not be prouder of Team LPB. Aimee, Kelly and our gorgeous Mandy worked with such skill, calmness and good humour. Everyone gave their absolute all, supported one another and helped create something truly memorable.

We did it and what a weekend it was. 🥂
