Weddings 2019
July 2019
Hi Carolyn Thank you Carolyn so much for your catering, we loved the food (as did our guests!). The salmon and cheesecake in particular went down a treat!! You did wonders organising a pretty laid back couple who didn’t really know what we wanted on our first meeting, and absolutely nailed our catering and welcome drinks!! Everything went without a hitch, and your ability to organise us meant that we had the most relaxed and chilled out experience that we wanted!! We’re still waiting for our pictures, and will send any relevant ones through. Many thanks Annie |

Hi Carolyn, We really can’t thank you enough for the wonderful catering you provided for our Wedding in June. We knew as soon as we met you that you were the right lady for the job. Your team laid the tables perfectly and it all looked exactly as we imagined. The food was amazing and so many of our guests commented on how good it was. You made sure the whole day ran smoothly. Love Abi |

Everything you did from those initial meetings to the day itself was faultless – thank you so very much. Hope the rest of your summer is as successful as I’m sure it will be. Sarah x |

I just wanted to say thank you so much for everything. I couldn’t have wished for a better caterer and a cooler woman to do my wedding. From the word go, you got it and just went with it, and I am so grateful for everything and all the extra bits you did to ensure we had the best day. The dinner went so smoothly, everyone enjoyed the food and the waitresses were so lovely and professional and I just felt so lucky and proud.
I will be your walking talking promoter from now on, and will be recommending you to everyone I know, as (to quote Tina Turner) you’re simply the best. Thanks again SO much, you are a wonderful woman and really made our day amazing. Best wishes and big hugs, Caroline, James and Harry xx |
Firstly, thank you and your team for an amazing catering event that you provided us with at Caroline and James’s Wedding. I could not fault the professionalism of your whole team who were attentive and caring. The food was excellent, and the quality too. I had so many positive comments, and for that and every other reason, I thank you.
I shall be singing your praises from the roof tops from now on, but if you would like any write ups or feed back anywhere in particular, please let me know. It would be my pleasure. Jane Maskell, Berkhamsted, September 2018 |
We wanted to thank you and your hardworking team for the fabulous food and service you supplied for Adam and Julia's wedding on the 2nd June.
Your team worked like Trojans all the way through, but were still polite, helpful and smiling and the end of the night. There were lots of compliments about the food which was probably the best BBQ food we have ever had (but don’t tell Ivor that as he loves 'man cooking' on the BBQ!). I don’t know whether we will need more catering at any point but we would certainly come back to you if we did. Either way we would be happy to supply a reference if ever needed. Thanks once again for helping make the day even more special for all of us. Rosie & Ivor Eisenstadt, Berkhamsted |
Thank you, and your team, for doing such a wonderful job at our wedding. It all ran so smoothly. We had many compliments about the food and all your staff who I met were wonderful. You really were brilliant from the moment we met you and knew you were the right person for the job! I had also thought the cake maker had decorated the cake - which exceed all my expectations, but Mum told me yesterday that she didn't, so i'm assuming you did! - THANK YOU!
Everything really was brilliant. We would recommend you highly! Lizzie and Erik, Ringshall, July 2018 |
On behalf of my wife and I, we want to thank you and your colleagues very much indeed for making our wedding celebration such a success.The whole evening went without a hitch and Jane & I are so grateful to you for your professionalism and for paying such great attention to the details. Nothing could have gone better.
I hope our paths will all cross again and we will definitely be recommending you all to friends and family. Peter & Jane Ashman, Tring, January 2018 |

Wedding at Hastoe Village Hall, August 2017
A mainly Irish guest list for this BBQ and lively party. A beautiful bride and a fabulous day. Dear Carolyn, I just wanted to thank you for all the catering, presentation and serving you and your lovely team did for my daughter's wedding on 12th August. (Loretta and Rory) When I met you with Loretta a few weeks before the wedding, you made me feel that I could totally relax and leave everything in your capable hands. Everything was absolutely wonderful. I have had so many people remark about the food and every aspect of the day. We all had a truly wonderful memorable day. Thank you again.

Dear Carolyn We are sorry we haven’t written before, but as you can appreciate it’s been rather hectic since Dani’s wedding. We would like to thank you for a super wedding reception you provided on Dani’s wedding day. The food was fantastic and enjoyed by everybody and we have received numerous complimentary comments. Your staff should also be congratulated for the excellent service they provided. Once again we would like to thank you for all your efforts and would not hesitate to recommend you or contact you for the next one if or when the need arises! Best wishes Colin & Beryl Franzmann |

Thank you so much for your wonderful food and organisation for our wedding reception. We loved the delicious dishes and many of our friends called to say the same. You kept everything flowing so smoothly and unobtrusively, while tidying up everything superbly as you went along.

Summer Wedding in Longwick for 120 guests.
Carolyn Williams has worked for me on several occasions and I am delighted to recommend her. She has catered for two family weddings, a Christmas party at Tring School for 60 school staff and a retirement garden party for 70 guests. Carolyn manages to work in the space available and gives excellent guidance on layout and presentation. Her menus are carefully chosen using fresh local ingredients with alternative suggestions for special dietary requirements including vegans and gluten free. Carolyn’s staff are well trained, helpful, friendly but unobtrusive. If you employ Carolyn you will be assured of a top class event and a very memorable meal experience. |
