What are you having to eat?

Bangers & mash! Autumn comfort food. No idea on starter and possibly a trio of dessert things - lemon syllabub, choc mousse, white choc cheesecake mini things.

We are having I think soup to start with, then a carvery. Which will be turkey and beef lots of veg and tatties. Then gravy, not looking forward to the gravy with ones dress so may pass on that or get a bib ?

Not sure on desert yet but only one.

We are hoping to have

Smoked Haddock fishcakes with chilli sauce

roast beef or beer casserole with veg for main ccourse and summerfruit pudding for desert

plus vegetarian options where needed.

When are you getting married as that might effect your decisions, we are having an autum wedding hence the slightly warmer more winter themed food

Smoked salmon with pickled cucumber salad

Chicken breast stuffed with spinach and ricotta, wrapped in pancetta with a cream and tarragon sauce. Served with roast potatoes and vegetables

Lemon cheesecake with fruit compote

We're likely going for Veg soup for starters, a peppered beef main & then a trio desert. Nothings definite yet, but we both instantly agreed on the same things ?

I'm all hungry now!

CD - I *have to* come to your wedding. That sounds like my ultimate meal and can think of nothing I'd swap any of those courses for!! ?

Yum! Hungry now though...
