Buen Apetito Wedding, Corporate & Party Catering

"From start to finish Andy, Debbie and the team were so friendly, attentive, easy to communicate with. Guests loved watching the Paella and One Pots being cooked in the big pans which provided a good source of entertainment and complemented our tipi reception excellently." "the food was fantastic, and having Paella and One Pots cooking in front of our guests added to the atmosphere and certainly made everyone hungry! So many of our friends and family said how delicious both the paella for our wedding breakfast and pulled pork buns in the evening were – many of them having seconds!"

I don't have enough positive words to express how brilliant Buen Apetito were for our wedding earlier this month. Andy, Debbie and Marcus put on an absolutely amazing tasting a few weeks before our wedding - Marcus even created a special twist to create my favourite dessert (chocolate orange). The service by the team on the day itself was exemplary - so polite, attentive and thoughtful. The food was as amazing - we had messages in the days following telling us how much they had loved every bit of it. We even had some burgers and paella the next day as we were tidying up the venue to continue to reminisce about how good the day was! Thank you all so so much - we are so glad you were such a key part of our day.

Without Andy, Debbie and their team our wedding certainly wouldn’t have been the same. From initially meeting Andy and Debbie a at our menu tasting session, to saying goodbye at the end of the night on our wedding day (this bit is a little blurry!) Buen Apetito have been an absolute pleasure to communicate and work with. The menu tasting was one of our favorite planning experiences and it was a really special evening for both of us and our families to spend the evening trying lots of extremely delicious food. It was also great to spend some time with Andy and Debbie and we all felt so reassured and excited to know they would be joining us on our big day. Planning a wedding can feel stressful and overwhelming at times but Andy was always at the end of the phone to help with any questions, advice or just to give us some reassurance we had everything under control. On our wedding day, the food was fantastic. Having Paella cooking in front of our guests added to the atmosphere and certainly made everyone hungry! So many of our friends and family said how delicious both the paella for our wedding breakfast and pulled pork buns in the evening were – many of them having seconds! Buen Apetito were not just our caterers, but they also provided the cutlery and plates, poured and served our welcome drinks and delicious (even keeping a secret canape stash for Liam and I), served our wedding breakfast, adapted timings as and when needed, helped clear plates and glasses, served our evening food and became great friends for the weekend! We cannot recommend Andy and the team enough. THANK YOU

We used Buen Apetito for our wedding in August 2023. We honestly could not recommend them enough. They did 3 days worth of catering for us (Friday, Saturday and Sunday), and every single dish we had was excellent. Even when catering for 125 people on the Saturday all the food was beautifully presented and tasted delicious. The Paella's around the pool on the Sunday went down a treat with all guests - one we would definitely recommend. Tasha and the front of house team were excellent as well - extremely attentive and made sure everyone had enough of everything. All the team were friendly, down to earth - I really can't recommend them enough!

Andy, Debbie and Marcus catered our wedding at Exeter Castle back in April 2023. We initially chose Buen Apetito because they made everything easy for us – transparent pricing, clear menu options, and an easygoing initial meeting that laid out what we could expect from them. Andy and Marcus were happy to tweak the menu to fit our preferences both before and after our tasting, and what a tasting it was – we got to try some of everything and were eating delicious leftovers for days! On the day the Buen Apetito team were the perfect mix of friendly, professional and efficient. Nothing was too much trouble and everything ran to time. Marcus catered for all dietary requirements seamlessly within the menu, and the food was delicious and plentiful. In fact plentiful is an understatement, there was So. Much. Food. Our guests left happy and full and we couldn’t have asked for anything more.

We couldn’t recommend Buen Apetito, Andy, Debbie and the team highly enough. If we could give 10 ⭐️ we would. They made our wedding incredible. The food was exemplary, all our guests raving about how good the food was. We had canapés, paella and evening food. We arrived late from having photographs taken and were greeted with our very own board of canapés, so thoughtful. Guests loved watching the paella being cooked in the big pans which provided a good source of entertainment and complemented our tipi reception excellently. From start to finish Andy, Debbie and the team were so friendly, attentive, easy to communicate with. They left no stone unturned thinking of things we hadn’t even thought of. Debbie cut our cake perfectly and served it on platters. They were so flexible with our timings throughout the day which needed to be pushed back slightly. If you’re getting married, choose Buen Apetito for your catering, you won’t regret it.
