Laura and Eddie! What a party! This wedding was the last wedding we did in a marquee at the Townhead Estate and it was definitely a celebration!

We started the weekend doing a pre wedding event with our Vintage trailer serving 4 pizzas

Pepperoni Pizza
Margherita Pizza
N’duja, Spicy Pepperoni, Buffalo Mozzarella, Roasted Red Pepper and Fresh Rocket
Prosciutto, Buffalo Mozzarella, Shaved Parmesan, Rocket and Balsamic Glaze

Their guests loved this and it helps calm the nerves and increase the excitement for the Saturday!

Wedding day

Making sure the celebration took up most of the day Laura and Eddie got married at 11:30am in the Barn and then enjoyed canapés in the marquee and on the terrace.

Canapés

Honey Mustard Sausages
Crostini with Buffalo Mozzarella, Sun Blush Tomato and Basil Pesto
Mini Yorkshire Pudding with Pink Roast Beef
Chilli and Garlic King Prawns
Peking Duck Pancakes with Plum Sauce

Laura and Eddie were having some beautiful pictures taken around the lake and the grounds of Townhead with their photographer Joe Mathers and their Videographer Craig Woodburn, they asked us to serve them their canapés before their starters! Can you blame them!

Making the way down towards the lake the guests were invited into the marquee Laura and Eddie hired from Original Marquees and decorated with amazing floral arrangements from Free Range Floristry.
