AB Dorset Catering brings your dream wedding menu to life in Dorset, Somerset and Devon. From intimate gatherings to grand celebrations, we create bespoke culinary experiences for your special day.
We've been part of countless love stories across Dorset, Somerset, and Devon. From intimate celebrations in cosy barns to grand affairs in stunning manor houses, we've done it all. And let me tell you, each wedding is as unique as the couple themselves.
We don't do 'one size fits all' here. Every menu we create is as individual as you are. We start with a consultation where we get to know you - your likes, your dislikes, your quirks, your family traditions. Are you dreaming of a formal three-course affair? Or perhaps a relaxed sharing feast? Maybe you fancy a street food inspired menu, or something that reflects your heritage? Whatever you're after, we'll work with you to make it happen.
Of course, we're blessed with some of the finest produce right here in the South West. Succulent Dorset beef, freshly caught Devon seafood, artisanal cheeses from Somerset - we love showcasing these local flavours in our menus. It adds a real sense of place to your wedding feast.
But it's not just about the main event. We can take care of everything from canapés to evening food. Imagine greeting your guests with delicate morsels of local delights - maybe some Dorset Blue Vinny cheese straws or mini Cornish pasties. And when the dancing's in full swing, how about some proper West Country bacon baps or a gourmet pizza station to keep everyone fuelled?
We know planning a wedding can be a bit overwhelming. That's why we've made our process as smooth as possible. We'll go through all options available, within your desired budget. We'll refine things until it's absolutely perfect. Then we'll provide you with a detailed proposal and quote, with no obligation.

Our waiting staff are a special bunch too. They're not just there to serve food - they're part of creating the whole experience. They'll keep everything running smoothly, topping up glasses, clearing plates, and always with a warm smile.
So, if you're planning your big day in Dorset, Somerset, or Devon, why not give us a call? Let's sit down together, have a cuppa, and start planning the wedding feast of your dreams. Whether you're thinking of a lavish banquet or a simple, elegant affair, we'd be honoured to be part of your special day.

LUCY SKINNER.......
Andy and his lovely team catered our Wedding in Symondsbury. He was absolutely amazing throughout. Andy was always really responsive to emails and nothing was too much trouble. On the day Andy, Anna and the whole team were amazing. They were so friendly and helpful, catered for everyone’s dietary requirements and nothing was too much trouble. Everyone commented on how delicious the food was and also on how lovely Andy and his staff were. The canapés were delicious, the main food was also amazing and there was plenty to go round. I forgot to take photos but here’s a photo of the delicious desserts we had, including gluten free brownies. Thank you so much Andy. I highly recommend Andy to cater your wedding, you won’t regret it!!!
