Amazing service

Amazing service from Prestige bars and catering in coming to the rescue for our wedding when another supplier pulled out two weeks before. Quick turnaround, professional service, great selection of food to meet our budget and the bar was well stocked and fairly priced with an extra special request met in stocking a selection of our favorite gins! The staff were brilliant and went above and beyond and our guests all had a great time. Would definitely recommend to anyone needing bar and/or caterin

Absolutely fantastic

Ian and his team were absolutely fantastic when they provided an Italian Feast for our wedding. They bent over backward to accommodate our requirements including replacing the traditional meat main courses with imaginative vegetarian options. The team on the day were so professional, efficient, cheeful and helpful, we couldn't have asked for more. The food was delicious, everyone commented on how good it was, including people who lived in Italy! And there was loads of it, so we were feasting on

Food was delicious and plentiful

Prestige did both the bar and the catering for our wedding. We chose Prestige after attending several events catered for by them and we were always impressed with the food and service provided. This didn’t alter for our wedding, from initial enquiries, to lots of questions and service on the day I cannot fault any aspect of their service. The staff were polite and efficient, the food was delicious and plentiful and the bar was well stocked with excellent service.

The service was beyond brilliant

We had a post wedding garden party where Ian provided all the culinary drama of cooking 3 different paella! We and our guests were delighted by the atmosphere created, the aroma and of course the wonderful tastes. The service was beyond brilliant and I cannot recommend them enough. From initial enquiry to collection of equipment the service was first rate. Thank you so much.

Perfection, delicious

We have recently used Prestige for our private garden wedding. They were brilliant from start to finish. Ian and his team setup quickly the day before the wedding. On the day the team serving our food and keeping things clean and tidy were brilliant, they were all helpful & friendly - nothing was too much trouble. What fabulous guys you have. The chef & his team were also amazing, we chose to have tapas and sharing dishes and every single item was cooked to perfection & delicious.

Superb service

Prestige provided the catering and the bar at my daughter and son-in-laws wedding at Woolverstone Hall. They were incredibly helpful in the lead up, with the various food allergies of guests, and provided a superb service on the day. We have had a large number of calls and emails saying how much our guests enjoyed the day, and comments specifically about the range and quality of the food.

The food was absolutely delicious

We used Prestige Catering for our recent wedding and were blown away! Ian and Kerry were professional, organised and helpful, and the food was absolutely delicious. We had canapes, starter platters, a barbecue, cheese and a buffet and it was all superb - my only regret is that I couldn't eat more of it! Lots of positive comments from our guests too. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others. Thanks, Harriet and Ed.

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

A grand Italian feast for a true, old fashioned Italian family. 12 courses, 6 hours and amazing food - with an amazing amount of drinks as well! Hard work but such great fun! We also recently did a 'Rocky Horror Show' themed wedding in Colchester which was fabulous!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Relaxed, friendly but very efficient and professional.

What about your business are you most proud of?

So many clients have become really good friends who we still keep in touch with.

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

Think about what YOU both want and go for it. Don't worry about the others - it's your day! Have the menu that suits and reflects your personality. After all, if you are generous enough to invite your guests to eat and drink with you they should certainly be gracious enough to accept your choices!

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

Too many to choose from and too personal to list here.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

After the initial emails or phone calls we really like to meet up in person to give us a 'feel' for how the couple would like their day to go. The personal meeting is so very important and can be just a general chat or combined with a food taster of some dishes / styles they are considering. I'm sure that it's not just our food - but after meeting a couple in person we have a 'booking success' rate of around 96%! K K and forward vuntil we have it
