Cat and Turtle Events Full Description
We provide a number of catering options, specialising in hog roast banquets. We also offer a delicious range of evening food options to soak up the alcohol and keep you going through the ceilidh, right up to a full package starting with canapés, through drinks reception, three hog roast banquet, tea and coffee service and running the bar into the evening. We can arrange everything from table and chair hire, to crockery, cutlery and glass hire. We can provide staff to set up, dress the tables, run a bar and clear down. We take as much off your hands as you're comfortable with, so that you can rest assured that your day will run seamlessly. We do not have a standard package - each one is completely bespoke and tailored exactly to your needs. Our chefs are unbelievably passionate about cooking. We locally source our ingredients wherever possible, and cook everything fresh onsite. We take pride in everything that leaves our kitchen, so we can guarantee you'll never be disappointed. Eliese has been co-ordinating weddings as part of her family business at Plane Castle for over three years, and has a meticulous eye for detail and planning, so you can be sure that your day will be everything you dreamed of, and more.

Hi, I've been co-ordinating and catering for weddings for a number of years at Plane Castle. I decided to branch out a couple of years ago, and provide wedding catering out with the castle. We really do love what we do, which shines through in our work. We have the passion, personality and skills to make your day everything you dreamed of. Kind regards, Eliese

Huge success!

Had the Cat & Turtle to our day after wedding celebrations in July 2019 and they were fantastic. Great efficiency in the lead up discussions, very accommodating, and nothing was too much trouble. The new potatoes with vegan butter were a huge success and the hog roast was delicious! Thank you to Elise and James.

Would recommend!

Cannot recommend these guys enough, they worked tirelessly from early in the morning to late at night ensuring all our wedding guests were catered for. Their easy, friendly yet efficient manner won over everyone, especially in such demanding circumstances - running between kitchen and marquee in torrential rain, thunder and lightning at one point!! Would book them again and have no hesitation in recommending them. Thank you! x

Fantastic hog roast, brilliant service!

We had Cat & Turtle as our caterers at our wedding in June 2019, we had a fantastic hog roast and brilliant service from Jame, Eliese and the team. From communication before the event right up to cleaning up they were really easy to work with and we were totally at peace on our wedding day knowing the food was in good hands and our guests commented many times on the quality of food and service. We'd 100% recommend Cat & Turtle for any weddings or events in the future. Dan & Emily

WOW!

These guys catered our garden party two weeks ago for the day after our wedding and WOW! Firstly; they came, set up, fed everyone, cleared up without any fuss. Just genuinely friendly, easy going guys doing a Great Job. That is a huge statement sometimes when dealing with vendors during a wedding. Secondly; the food. It was incredible!! Everyone was blown away. It was the perfect thing to warm everyone up, catered to a decent sized crowd of all ages, some vegetarians and some fussy eaters. Everyone was amazed. Thirdly; the price. We planned our wedding from Canada and got quotes from a few companies for our event and some were honestly a bit ridiculous. We began rethinking what we would be able to do with our budget and then I found these guys by chance. From that first email, we were put at ease and they went above and beyond in creating exactly what we wanted, giving that relaxed happy atmosphere that we were looking for, with amazing quality and an UNBEATABLE price. Seriously they were the nicest to talk to, most accommodating and then I thought the quote was a mistake. I will be recommending to everyone!!! Thanks guys!

Nothing but praise

Thank you so much Sonja, Steve, Elise, James & rest of the staff for making our son & daughter in law Rikki & Demi's wedding just perfect. We have nothing but praise for everyone of you. This place is a hidden Gem & loved the few days stay. Everything went great on the day/night & so glad they chose Plane Castle for there venue. The food was absolutely amazing (still forgot my deserts lol). We just felt so relaxed as you all had everything under control. Felt like one big happy family. Sonja I can't believe the times you were just there when needed from directions to tears, you are amazing. I wish everyone of you, special people the very, very best in life. This is an experience I will remember for the rest of my life. Thank you so much. Love from Joyce & George xx p.s sorry about Charlie, Steve lol

Engagement party

Thank you so much Eliese and James! The food you provided for our engagement party was delicious, and you were so professional and accommodating from our very first email. You made sure there were options for guests with a range of dietary requirements which was hugely appreciated! Would recommend anyone looking for a delicious hog roast and friendly service to book with Cat and Turtle :)

Fabulous

Don’t be mislead-no cats or turtles come to harm as you tuck into the delicious hog roast! We had a fabulous 50th birthday celebration last weekend-with Leonie and Chloe serving with smiles on their faces and a cheerful approach to making our evening special! Right from the initial booking enquiry our experience was very positive - very efficient and easy to work with. We would highly recommend them and would definitely book again-thanks so much!

Eliese and James, we can't thank you enough for the work you did on our wedding day!

Everything was perfect. You make a fantastic team and I will be recommending you to everyone I know. Thanks again, Rikki and Demi xx

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

Where would I begin? There was the one where the bride had arranged real life replicas of the Starwars cast to turn up midway through the ceremony. There was the one where they had a marquee filled with inflatable penguins. There was the one where the best man had arranged for a troupe of breakdancers to come in and take over the first dance. I have so many fantastic memories from the weddings I've worked over the years, it'd be impossible to pinpoint the "most" memorable! Every wedding is special and memorable in its own way - as cheesy as that may sound!

What about your business are you most proud of?

Again, a hard question to answer! After every single wedding, I end it on a complete high because I am SO proud of the service my team and I achieve and deliver, time and time again.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Remember it is YOUR day. It's not your sisters, not your mothers, not your mother-in-law-to-be's, not your photographers, not your wedding planners, and not anybody else's but YOURS!

Describe your typical process with a couple.

Usually there are a fair few emails back and forth to determine what kind of service you're looking for and roughly how much this would cost. Generally, we would then arrange for you to come and visit us for a tasting session and a chat about everything from the food to the way you met, to your pets and how you're planning your wedding day to run.
