Eve and Elliot's Wedding

Eve and Elliot had chosen a fabulous rural venue in the heart of rolling Essex countryside. We presented the newly wedded couple and their guests with a glass of champagne before we jumped on a tractor to be back at the reception venue ready for the wedding breakfast service.

Eve and Elliot wanted to make use of the venue's lovely gardens by serving a picnic, but what a picnic we provided!  Each couple had their own stunning ivory boxes decorated with Eve’s choice of shocking pink ribbon with hand-made labels detailing their name and specific menus (such as kid’s menu, vegetarian, gluten free). Under the shocking pink tissue paper each picnic box contained canapés, a four course menu with petits fours, a bottle of wine, plates, cutlery, glasses, and of course shocking pink napkins.
