    I would be a little stuck with the starter as I dont eat pate, but I am soooo clumsy that soup would end up all down me lol.

    But I would choose - Soup, Pork (mmmm that sounds really lovely, very hungry now!) and pecan pie!

    Mmmmm delish! Bx

    I would eat it very happily, BUT I think if you are offering a creamy mushroom dish as the veggie main course, you may well find it not to everyone's taste... there are definitely 'safer' veggie options out there as a LOT of people don't like mushrooms, especially if they are a main focus of the dish so can't just be left to one side.

    As I say, I would happily eat it as I happen to like mushrooms. But you asked us what we thought and that's what I honestly think... I would change the mushroom dish if possible to something else.

    I agree on the mushrooms front- I cant abide the things and I think they are a real "marmite" food. I wont even hve them in the house

    CCB!? We're offering the butternut squash soup and the mushrooms as well. I'm veggie and I love mushrooms! It's been quite popular so far 3 non-veggies have also chosen it. We're also offering salmon tho and the only other vegetarian has gone for the salmon. I got so bogged down with worrying about what everybody else would like in the end we went with our favourites. We've had half our rsvps back now and no issues so far! HTH xx

    Just to add I love your menu but might want to double check with your guests as out of 100 people we have 10 people who are (apparently) allergic to mushrooms! Don't know if that is an unusually high proportion or if some of them actually just don't like mushrooms so say that they are allergic.

    We are getting married at CCB too and went for the vegetable crepes for our veggie main and have had a few non-veggies choose it too so seems to have gone down well.

    I only have one or two people who eat the veggie option and no actual veggies, and I just asked them what they'd eat before we chose our menu. Your food sounds lovely! I'd be very happy if I was a guest at your wedding.

    And CC is so gorgeous x
