Buffet Meals

A buffet meal is the most popular of all Wedding Receptions.  The guests can go up and help themselves to a wide array of menu items and take as much (or as little) of each item as they like.  Elizabethan Catering Services Ltd., has a very successful formula of menu items, and can advise you on the best choices.
However, you are the customer, and you might like to make the choices more extensive, and more “upscale”.  We would prefer not to assume what you would like, but just advise on what has worked well in the past.

All of our buffet meals are supplied with the very best service equipment from Germany, and are sure to impress your guests.  If there is a menu item not listed, please let us know and we will make it for you.  All of our menu items are made on site using the freshest of ingredients, and from recipes we have generated from over 20 years of experience.
