    Melon for me as I don't like that particular combination of salad.

    I'd go for salad. I think melon just smacks of 1980's banqueting menus!

    Salad....do you think the "wellington" bit on your menu may a typo from the caterers ? I understand what "fanned" melon is but the wellington bit is bizarre.

    Melon, I don't really see how the salad follows the mains very well.

    (I also have a melon addiction ?)

    Salad - melon is fruit so should be a dessert.

    (Also - the starter goes before the main ? )

    I love melon, but do feel that salad would suit the masses more ?

    What do you prefer?

    I don't particularly like any of the starters unfortunately but am fussy with both because of their textures gives me the jeebies thinking about it!

    I love both melon and salad. I can eat salad with everything, but I find mozzarella the blandest of cheeses, so I'd plump fot the melon in this case.

    If it was me though I'd offer a choice of Melon or salad and drop the prawns.

    I love melon but my OH hates it, actually makes him feel ill so we're not allowed it at our wedding! I think the salad would suit most people.
