Wedding Bells at River Cottage

We always have a stream of photos, and stories from our events so we thought, as a team, we would keep you updated, as live as possible with all the event action. For photos, recipes, tips and quotes, keep an eye on the Events Team Blog.
Tim and Laura wanted a very River Cottage wedding. The menu, specially created by the River Cottage Kitchen Team for couple, was based around seasonal and local produces. Friends and family gathered in the Kitchen Garden where they enjoyed glasses of bubbly and a selection of Gill’s canapés while a local band played.

The spit roast lamb which had been cooking all day in the courtyard was then served up for dinner along with a selection of delicious salads. This was followed by the couples favourite, crème brulee but with a summer twist of strawberries and raspberries.
After dinner the barn was transformed for dancing and the couple where able to take to the dance floor for their first dance! We were very pleased to host our first wedding here at River Cottage and we wish Laura and Tim every happiness.
