Help!!

We want a feast for our wedding... no fancy three course thingamajig, just a good old fashioned feast - each table will have one or two whole chickens and then other dishes as well - salads, veggie option, jacket potatoes etc. The problem is, I don't even know where to start... We can't do it ourselves, because we need someone to make sure the hot dishes are hot and to clear the plates etc, so would we get a caterer for this?

I've never hired a caterer before and they all seem to do their own menus. What do we do if we know exactly what we want already?

    I love that idea! All the caterers I spoke to would basically accommodate what we wanted even though they had their own suggested menus.

    Our plan had been for a posh indoor picnic and we had quite specific ideas of what we wanted the baskets to include. Ultimately we changed venue and didn't need a caterer. If I were you I'd talk to each of the caterers you are considering and see what they can offer. I'd be surprised if they insist that all they can do is what their menu states.

    My friend had exactly this for her wedding and it was fantastic. It was well over 10 years ago so whether her caterer is still going I wouldn't know. I'll see if she can remember who it was.

    I know a caterer who may be able to do this. They run a pub and a hog roast company. https://www.facebook.com/hogroast.yorkshire

    I was going to suggest contacting hog roast companies, they might be able to do that easier
