FOOD
& DRINK
One thing couples particularly love about weddings at Dodmoor is the freedom & choice around food and drink, alongside the guidance and recommendations we’ve built up over the years working with some incredible suppliers.
Some couples keep things relaxed, while others go for a more traditional wedding breakfast with beautifully served courses.
Whatever the vibe of your day, there’s plenty of flexibility to make the experience feel relaxed, enjoyable and completely natural for your guests.
