How it works
Changes on the day are fine: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your wedding. Winter weddings in Nashes Green are dark by about 4:00pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.
- Share your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the venue and the date, then send a quote.
- We fit our timings around your running order and the venue.
- On the day we set up in good time and fry fresh at the agreed time.
- We pack up quietly once everyone has eaten.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
