Amazing food, amazing service

Lavinia and Phoebe catered our tipi wedding and we couldn't recommend them more highly. Food is important to us and they really listened to what we wanted and created a beautiful menu that felt personal to us. The service they provided was incredibly professional and despite some truly nightmarish weather on the morning, they were still able to deliver the highest quality food and perfectly to schedule. Amazing food, amazing service and a brilliant experience from start to finish. Wish we could

Perfect caterers for our wedding

Sunflower Kitchen were the perfect caterers for our wedding. They created a bespoke menu, based on what we like, and were highly responsive and thoughtful throughout the whole planning process. On the day, the food was delicious and our guests were so full of both food and complements for the Sunflower Kitchen team. Thank you Phoebe and Lavinia

Lavinia and Phoebe made our day perfect!

We had the Sunflower Kitchen cater for our wedding - canapés, lunch and evening food. Everything ran so smoothly and the food was INCREDIBLE. So many people came up to us to say it was the best wedding food they’d ever had. And they commented how lovely, smily and efficient all the staff who were helping on the day were. Lavinia and Phoebe are so great, friendly, easy going and made our day perfect!

EVERYTHING was beyond fabulous.

I cannot recommend Sunflower Kitchen more. They catered our wedding and could not have been more brilliant. The food, the service, EVERYTHING was beyond fabulous. Special mention has to go to the beautiful beef and spectacular salads. If you want something really special, these guys are who you want.

wow, did they deliver!

We used Phoebe and the Sunflower Kitchen team for our wedding, and wow, did they deliver! Their food was a hit, with options that were as delicious as they were plentiful, perfect for our big guest list. The service was top-notch — friendly, efficient, and genuinely caring. They even added personal touches that made our day feel even more special. The quality of the food was outstanding; it was the kind of meal you talk about long after the last dance. Our guests genuinely tell us it was the be

Working with Sunflower Kitchen was a delight

Sunflower Kitchen created a menu for our wedding day dinner that met and went beyond our expectations. We asked that the menu was locally sourced and seasonal and they put together a 3-course menu that was full of flavour, colour and used local ingredients in imaginative ways. The food was lovingly prepared and many of our guests said it was the best food they have had at a wedding. Dietary requirements were varied, and catered for with much thought and care.

Perfect!

My wife and I were lucky enough to have Sunflower Kitchen cater for our wedding. After talking her through the vague ideas of what we wanted, Phoebe designed the most incredible 3 course menu encompassing all the aspects we'd asked for. On the day, Phoebe and her team provided amazing service throughout the afternoon and beautifully authentic Middle Eastern cuisine for our guests. We cannot recommend Sunflower Kitchen enough.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

Initial consultation, walking through how we work, what you'll need, answering any questions (not just on the food! ask us for any recs) and discussing menu plans. We go away and come up with a couple of proposed bespoke menus following this chat, then you come for a tasting so we can all meet and you get to try the food! We're always on the end of the phone for couples with any queries at all, and will come for a site visit before the big day.
