We know one of the first ticks on the checklist is of course; the Date, then time to

book the Venue; and we feel the most important after that is Food!

We have teamed up with The Hatchery, to put together a few different menu option

ideas for your special day.

Blue Strawberry has been a leader in our industry for a mere “Pearl Anniversary”,

30 Years! Giving us vast experience, watching the magnificent changes in the

industry and curving these changes to become our own.

We pride ourselves on the utmost Quality & Reliability for your special day.

Celebrating through our food, which is nothing short of Delicious!

To get you started on your Food Journey, I have set some menu ideas below.

Ranging from different Canapés during Photo’s, moving to Starters, Mains &

Desserts for the reception.

Although we do have our own menu styles & options, this is just a little bit of what we

find is the most popular for fellow couples. We encourage Bridal couples to let us

know what their thoughts and ideas are for their day, so we can do our best to

provide you with exactly what you are looking for.

Have a look through our menus, we hope you find something that Excites you. If you
