Testimonials from Life’s Kitchen Weddings

‘Life’s Kitchen worked with us to plan a fantastic meal, which everyone very

much enjoyed. We wanted the food to be both impressive to look at and delicious to eat - which Dave and his team certainly achieved. At least one of our guests

told us that it was some of the best food they had ever had at a wedding’.

‘We chose Life's Kitchen as they were the only caterer from all the suppliers we approached who actually met with us and went through the requirements for

our wedding prior to giving us a quote. Once we chose them, they did a fantastic job of meeting us on a regular basis and advising the things we should

considering. Having done this many times before, they gave us some great ideas and suggestions for the running of the day. Life’s Kitchen made the whole

process seamless’.

‘Where do I begin, just wanted to say thank you so so much for making our day very special. From my millions of calls and emails, you were just so helpful; I

must say am going to miss our calls and emails! Everything was beautiful, beyond my expectations and all because of you. Family and friends loved

everything. Everything ran smoothly and was very organised; you took care of everything and we were just able to enjoy the day without worrying. The food,

where do I begin? The beef was just perfect, most people said it was the best beef they have had!’
