Wedding Catering

The perfect food for your perfect day

Wedding catering with a personal touch

On your big day you want everything to be perfect. At Platter & Slate, we understand that the food plays an enormous part in making your wedding day special, and that you will want to know you have entrusted the wedding catering into good hands.

Platter and Slate is not a bulk caterer churning out standard offerings and relying on junior staff to oversee events. Our head chef Deanna Smith manages all our weddings personally. She will design a bespoke menu for your wedding, which is ideally suited to your vision for the day. You will receive personalised service from her, starting with menu discussions, through to a tasting of the proposed wedding menu. On the day she will be on hand to deal with any concerns and to ensure that the food and service are impeccable.

For traditional receptions, or something a bit different

We can deliver whatever type of wedding food you would like on your special day, whether it is drinks and canapés, buffets, sharing platters or picnics, or afternoon tea.

Wine and food pairings

We can also recommend the perfect wine to accompany your wedding food, perfectly tailored to complement your menu choices, and the best fizz for the toasts, at a price to suit your budget.

Seasonal ingredients for the freshest taste

As with all our food, wherever possible we use seasonal ingredients for our wedding catering menus. All our meat is free range and we use sustainable fish, which we source directly from Billingsgate market (where we have our kitchen) so it is as fresh as possible.

Highly trained & experienced catering chefs

Our head chef Deanna Smith works with a team of expert chefs who are highly experienced and have trained at Leith’s School of Food & Wine. Some (like Deanna) have also taught there. You can therefore be assured that the cooking will be of the highest standard.

  • "Deanna was very friendly, flexible, full of imaginative ideas and a very good communicator. We felt safe in her hands! And the food was both fabulous and plentiful. Guests raved about it, and many (including our wedding planner!) said it was the best wedding food they'd ever had. "

    –Alison Rose

  • "Deanna did the catering for our wedding reception. She served canapes that were beautiful, delicious and original - not the usual tired, boring ones that most caterers provide. The main course dishes were also truly wonderful: creative, varied and unique. Deanna was thoroughly professional from start to finish and all our guests loved the food! "

    – Susan Adelson

  • "We feel very lucky to have found and secured Platter and Slate to caterer our wedding. Deanna was brilliant to work with. It felt like we bonded very quickly and refined the menu together. Deanna is very passionate, her ideas are creative, the food very tasty, and refined."

    – Peter Hodsman

  • "Dave and I are so happy to have had platter and slate do the catering for our wedding - the food was exactly how we’d imagined it to be and the guests were raving about it all evening. Deanna is a true artist - the best lamb our guests had ever eaten."

    – Eve Otway

  • "I care passionately about food, so when we were deciding on who we would get to cater our wedding... I spoke to more than 15 companies across London. Deanna was completely delightful from the very get-go. I am allergic to gluten, which can sometimes create difficulties, but Deanna proposed a menu that was so delicious that no one even noticed that it was gluten-free."

    – Eleanor Nairne

  • "All our guests praised the food, and we could see what a slick operation Deanna ran on the day. We’re so glad we worked with Deanna and would recommend her to anyone who wants the food to be one of the highlights of their wedding."

    – Emma & Jonny
