Wedding catering in Bishops Cleeve Tithe Barn, near Cheltenham

Friday, October 10, 2014
Ten months in the making and today was finally the day!
Trio of desserts: dark chocolate torte topped with raspberries, shotglass of eton mess and raspberry mojito sorbet 

Bishops Cleeve tythe barn. It was renovated and refitted a few years back and now makes a great space for a wedding. The hall looks new, fresh and bright - a lot of other venues could do with the same treatment!
Tewkesbury town band played the wedding couple in to the wedding reception. We saw them at a few events this year - great sound! 
Found these cocktail skewers for the canapé mini burgers in homemade carrot and cumin buns - perfect for a wedding
Also found a couple of perspex stands for the canapé beer battered fish and chip cones - looks much better when you hand them round!

Main course was chicken, parma ham, cherry tomato and basil pie - sadly no pics of that. With 2 kitchens (one on bottom floor, other on top floor) there was quite a lot going on as it was going out.....
The brides grandfather had been in the milk trade and had a large collection of vintage milk bottles which they used for flowers on the tables. Always nice to add your own touch!

A classic beauty! VW camper vans are all the rage for weddings - as bridal cars (like they used here), camper vans converted as bars, ice cream vans, a photo booth, a coffee bar
 Oh dear - give a camera to a teen to take some pics for the blog and this is what happens.......
