Thank to all the team at ridgway

Thank to all the team at ridgway from quotes, booking and to the day. The guests had nothing but compliments of the food on the wedding day, from the kids to some fussy eaters! The food was a great hit.

We can't thank them enough. 😃

Ridgway not only cooked us an amazing Wedding Breakfast meal which all our guests enjoyed and commented on. Ridgeway also went the extra mile in the finer details. There was special needs children at the wedding, and they catered for them very well, some needed liquidised food, and these were brought out first to help keep them calm. They double checked everything with us, and we had a free food tasting day before the wedding to make sure we were happy with everything.

All the guests loved the food.

We recently used Ridgway for our wedding & couldn't say a bad word about them! We have quite a lot of allergies - I am celiac (gluten free) and my new husband is dairy free (normally a caterers worst nightmare) and they couldn't have been more accommodating. They made the entire wedding menu gluten/dairy free (canapes/main meal/evening meal) at no extra cost & it was completely stress free. All the staff were lovely on the day and Laura was an absolute pleasure to deal with.All the guests loved

We couldn’t be happier with Ridgway Caterers.

We couldn’t be happier with Ridgway Caterers. The food was exceptional - every guest commented on how delicious their meal was, and everything was beautifully presented. The team went above and beyond to make sure everyone was looked after, paying special attention to those with dietary requirements. They truly couldn’t have done more, and we’re so grateful for their care and professionalism from the minute we made our initial enquiry. Thank you for helping make our day so special!

We definitely recommend Ridgway!

We definitely recommend Ridgway! They catered our wedding and were great from start to finish. They were really accommodating and Maxine was brilliant at making sure everything ran smoothly and that we enjoyed all of the food. Lots of guests commented it was the best wedding food they had ever had. The pizzas in the evening were amazing and probably the best I’d tasted! We loved the options and went with a more relaxed menu which went down a treat. The staff were brilliant

100% recommend.

Ridgway were absolutely incredible when catering our wedding on 4th August at Alcumlow. So many of our guests commented on the amazing food throughout our wedding breakfast and were blown away with the choice of pizzas served in the evening. From the taste test session to the actual day, everything was such a smooth, easy process. Maxine was amazing at making sure everything went smoothly and we were so grateful to all the staff for their professionalism and attentiveness. 100% recommend.

How to Arrange an Appointment for Your Wedding or Event Catering

You can schedule an appointment with us by phone, email, or through our social media channels. We offer flexible options for your meeting, whether it's in the comfort of your home, over the phone, or in our showroom (subject to availability).

What Do We Discuss During the Meeting?

During our meeting, we aim to understand your vision and plans for your special day. We'll talk through menu ideas, event details, and any specific requirements you may have. After gathering all the information, we’ll prepare a detailed proposal and quote. If you'd like a tasting session, we can arrange that in our showroom.

Can We Try the Food Before Booking?

Yes, we encourage it! We offer private tastings in our showroom for a selection of dishes you're considering. There’s a £55.00 charge for the tasting, which will be deducted from your deposit once you confirm your booking. You can bring up to 4 additional guests to the tasting at £55.00 per person.

What Happens Once We’re Ready to Book?

To secure your date and price quote, we require a booking fee along with a signed copy of our terms and conditions. This confirms our services for your event. The final balance will be due four weeks before your big day, once all details and guest numbers are finalised. Upon payment of the booking fee, your date is confirmed.

Can I Offer My Guests a Choice Menu?

Absolutely! We can tailor your menu to suit your preferences. Offering a choice menu won't affect the price as long as it's finalised and pre-booked at least five weeks before the event.

What Does “Price Per Person” Include?

Our price per person for a full wedding breakfast includes everything you’ll need: crockery, cutlery, luxury white table linen, service staff, kitchen equipment, table setup, fresh locally-sourced food prepared on-site, refrigerated transport, as well as all washing-up and clearing away afterward. There are no hidden fees, but extras like coloured linen or additional evening food may come at an additional cost. All prices are exclusive of VAT.
