A more casual option for larger weddings; where you want your budget to go more towards food than service.
Space is needed for the buffet tables & for guests to wait in line; it is also often a slower service - so a good amount of time is needed.
Hot Wedding Buffet
4 Hot Dishes:
Outdoor Reared Roast Pork Shoulder:
Infused with Lemon Thyme, Garlic, Cracked Pepper, Cinnamon & Cider;
