We used Astridges for our wedding, and could not have been happier from first meeting through until the wedding day. They were so accommodating, even managing to make it work when a guest left it until the wedding day to let us know they were a veggie! They really allowed for a hands off approach from us, and we’re very attentive to our requests. No prompting or reminders needed for any little details throughout the whole day, even the last minute additions.
So many of our guests commented on the great food, and also the great service from the service staff, and my partner and I could not have

Outstanding outside catering yesterday by Paul Astridge for my wife's latest big birthday. The afternoon cream tea for 20 in our garden was a great success even with the Covid restrictions, and the food was fabulous. The strawberries dipped in white chocolate are to die for! Maybe you should hide them from your guest's! I can't recommend Paul enough, as a very safe pair of hands to cater for your important event.

Paul catered our wedding at short notice and provided a covid secure service for our small full-day ceremony, serving canapes and then an afternoon tea. Ahead of the day communication was great and Paul made us feel at ease and understood what we were aiming for. On the day the attention to detail was fantastic and despite the covid restrictions Paul managed to make everything feel special. The quality of food was extremely high and our guests commented on how excellent everything was. There was almost a fight for the sausage rolls. Thanks Paul and team.

Paul catered our wedding a few months ago and we were delighted with the food and service. He was so patient and kept excellent communication with us considering all the changes due to covid. We had a canapé starter, roast pork and a trio of deserts. The food was delicious, epic crackling, and service was excellent too. Such attention to detail and did everything they could to make our day go smoothly. Gutted there weren't any leftovers!

Thank you Paul from Ken and I for those lovely yummy brownies. They’re super delicious. It was so good to see you the other day making your deliveries. Such strange times but great you’re making these luscious brownies and getting out and about.

Paul catered for our wedding and the food was amazing! Before the big day we discussed food options and he was great at offering ideas and suggestions. It was tailored to our exact needs. I was pretty stressed on the day but he had everything under control. A true professional, I would highly recommend him.
