I think we would have to say our own wedding day! Much like all couples so much planning went in to the day! It was 3 years in the planning process so it was so incredible to see all of our ideas come together in such an incredible way!
What is your most memorable wedding?
We hosted the bar for a beautiful Indian wedding back in 2021. Watching the whole day unfold from day to night was just magical. They had an Indian section of the wedding to begin with with all the traditional ceremonies etc followed by a "english style" civil ceremony. Everything from the Bride & Grooms outfits, Wedding Parties attire, decorations, food, music and location was exceptional! It was such a moving day & during the speeches none of us behind the bar had dry eyes!

Our trailer! We really think she is gorgeous! We have three serving hatches which enables us to cater for bigger events in a much more time effective way meaning our Customers are not left waiting for ages queuing when they should be enjoying themselves!
What about your business are you most proud of?
The growth of our business has been exceptional even during hard economic times created by the pandemic. The growth we have seen is down to our dedication to exceptional Customer Service & always going the extra mile!
What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Make sure your decisions are based on what you both want. It can be so easy to end up going overboard to please your guests when actually the whole day is there for YOU! :)

Use a Pinterest board to get all of your ideas together, we would this really useful as a 'mood board' for our big day!
Save money where you can...
Invitations - We used some from Paperchase and wrote them out together. That saved me £400 off the cost of having some bespoke ones made. People throw them away after anyway!
Bridesmaid / Groomsmen Outfits - Could they purchase their outfit for the big day as a present to you both instead of buying an actual present? We did this with our Bridal Party and it saved us a small fortune!! I had 5 Bridesmaids and Matt had 5 Best Men!
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
We are suckers for doggy ring-bearers!

First stop with any wedding couple is to pop you over a brochure so you can take a look at what we offer in more detail! Then once you have had chance to have a look we like to discuss your event on a Skype call so that we can discuss the finer details of the day. We will tailor the bar to your specification so you can then leave the rest to us and focus on the rest of your wedding planning. We will then contact you a few weeks prior to the event to ensure all details remain the same before turning up on the day to WOW you and your Guests with our hugely unique bar experience!
Describe your typical process with a couple.
