Summer Success

The Porthia team catered our wedding back in the summer. Being quite the gastronomer it was great to speak to like minded people about the importance of food on our big day. Every detail was discussed and catered to perfection including those with allergies or strange dietary requirements. Guests had great feedback and it was decided by my wife that the Beef was the best she had ever had. I’d highly recommend the team and plan to use them for future events.

Wonderful day, wonderful food

Our wedding last autumn was great but the food was exceptional. Colin and team made our day magical. Nothing was too much trouble, food was delicious and we felt we received a very personalised service. Our guests were still commenting weeks later! Thank you Colin for making our special day even more special.

Amazing wedding dinner

Contacted Porthia catering for our wedding. We discussed everything well in advance. In the days leading up to the wedding, everything was checked, discussed and adjusted again. The menu, which was fully tailored to specific allergies, was great! Nice dishes with a special touch. Those who were there the day before and the day itself to set up and arrange things, also in one word, great. Everything was possible, everything was allowed. And everything was perfect! This chef knows exactly how to cook for groups, beautiful presentation of the dishes and we were well looked after. Definitely recommend them.

Our perfect day with thanks to Porthia

From start to finish Porthia were fantastic in making our day so perfect. Friendly and helpful staff catered for our every need. The food was delicious and plentiful (would recommend the porchetta rolls as an evening snack). Thank you Porthia!

We could not have asked for more

When planning our wedding, we quickly realised how much there was to organise. When it came to the food, we wanted something high-quality yet affordable. A friend recommended Porthia, and after our first meeting, we knew we were in good hands. They took care of everything, allowing us to focus on our special day without worry. The food was hearty and absolutely delicious, and my wife was thrilled with the cake! It was a huge weight off our shoulders knowing they had everything covered. Porthia provided exactly what we needed for the day to run smoothly, and we couldn’t be happier with their service. Highly recommended!

Gorgeous food!

Thank you to the entire Porthia catering team for an amazing menu and service at our wedding. We wanted a seafood theme and the food surpassed our expectations. Everyone commented on the catering. Lovely service as well.

The food at my wedding was Amazing

I got married last September and Colin from Porthia Catering did the most fantastic job for us. Nothing was too much trouble- Colin was happy to come to our house with ideas initially, and he then returned a couple of days later with some of the ideas that we had discussed The Oysters were great, but the Lobster Spaghetti was to die for.

Amazing culinary & service experience for our wedding banquet

Colin & his team prepared & served an incredible spread for our wedding reception in August ‘24. For the starter we had pate of foie gras, the main course was fillet of beef, finishing with a delicious Eton mess for pudding. An all-round incredible experience. Wish I could award Porthia more than 5 stars!

Fantastic food with zero hassle!

Colin was fantastic from the very start of the process, guiding us though a menu, to the very end, when the dishes were whisked away. The food was commented on by everyone as both being tasty and looking exceptional. We had a wide selection of antipasti, salads and mains all personalised to our tastes. Will 100% be using him again - although hopefully not for another wedding any time soon!

Fabulous wedding feast

Colin and his team catered our wedding in April 2022 and the whole experience was wonderful. We wanted our wedding meal to be abundant and delicious, and Colin delivered a feast for our guests. He was so easy to work with and made the process straightforward from start to finish. On the day itself, we were blown away by the quality and quantity of food - our wedding breakfast was large sharing dishes of Italian food for the starter and main, with our wedding cake served for dessert, and then gourmet cheese toasties in the evening. Loads of our guests told us that the wedding breakfast was the best food they have ever had at a wedding, and one said it was the best meal he'd had full stop. Don't hesitate to hire Colin and his team.
