And taking centre stage… a Giant Homemade Pork Pie with the Bride & Groom’s initials!

This sumptuous “picnic” themed wedding took place at an equally gorgeous Sussex venue, Hollybank House, a listed country house with a stunning 10 acre garden in the beautiful town of Emsworth – where coast meets countryside. What a feast, what a location!

Wedding guests loved the fact that this was so different to normal wedding fayre – wicker hampers groaning with a variety of our homemade breads and homemade pickles and just look at that pork pie initialed with the name of the bride and groom! Another triumph!!!

Inspired by an Italian Olive Grove…

Inspired by an olive grove owned by the family in Italy, Claire and Peter Langley-Smith’s wedding had an authentic Italian theme, which made for a wonderful wedding in Lavant last weekend.

The food reflected the flavour of Italy with risotto balls, parma ham, carpaccio of beef in evidence together with the smell of barbecued lamb and roasted potatoes cooked with rosemary drifting across the lawn. Sumptuous! The sun shone and guests enjoyed sipping prosecco in the garden before moving into the marquee for the wedding breakfast.

Glamping (Glamorous Camping) was the theme for our latest wedding event at the Billy Can Campsite!

We really enjoyed our very “outside” wedding experience at Billy Can Camping near Arundel, West Sussex. The sun was shining, a breeze was blowing and it almost felt like a holiday – definitely want to go back and have my own party there amongst the tipis with Arundel castle on the horizon!

As ever, the Green & Graham team do love a good wedding, pair that with the great outdoors, the beautiful Sussex vistas and the creative challenge of creating 100% veggie wedding fayre that appeals to all guests (even the non-veggie ones!) and it all makes for a very memorable big day. An incredible day, lots of fun and we wish Lucia and Pete the very best for the future.

The creative catering challenge… how to make all-pink diddy dainty doughnuts?!!!

We had an absolute blast at our latest wedding event; the theme of “All Pink” was EXACTLY as it says on the tin – ALL PINK. Everything. Even the teenie tiny doughnuts, sugared (with pink sugar, obv) proved to be the mightiest of creative catering challenges but after the initial pink bullet-like bombshells, our talented team went on to master the substantially more appealing “light and fluffy” variant!

Literally everything from the frock to the flowers, the crockery to the doughnuts, was all pink. While the wedding took place but a stepping stone from the beach. Mix that with the 1-colour theme and it really made for an unbelievably stunning event bursting with creative touches and colourful, eclectic clashes that just worked like a charm.

A very dreamy wedding day!

The first of our summer weddings came and went – all too quickly – in a fun-filled, dreamy blur. Blessed with blue skies and beaming sunshine, we’re thrilled that the wedding guests experienced a truly beautiful Sussex wedding deep in the countryside this week, one which was made perfect by pastel lanterns and sweet peas. On the menu; mini shepherds pies, rack of Goodwood Estate lamb, pea puree and roast vine tomatoes – totally delicious, totally true to the Sussex countryside. And we always like to source local produce – somehow it always makes it taste even better!

The wedding marquee looked amazing, awash with vintage flower arrangements, brightly coloured glasses and the ceiling bobbing with an abundance of pastel-toned paper lanterns – they even had a retro candy bar for guests to enjoy. Dainty but striking and definitely very dreamy!
