Your wedding food. It’s one of the things your guests will always remember and a huge talking point on the day, so of course you want to get it right. At Hodsock Priory we take our food seriously and want you and your guests to be talking about the wedding menu for all the right reasons.
From stylish canapés to heavenly three-course sit-down meals, we’ll make sure every part of your big day is utterly delicious. We use the very best, in season and – where possible – locally sourced ingredients to create the perfect wedding menu for you and your guests. Our team can cater for all kinds of special dietary requirements, as well as offering a tasty children’s menu, so every single guest gets to enjoy our fantastic food.
A delicious welcome
Once the wedding ceremony is over it’s time to get the celebrations started. At Hodsock Priory you and your guests can catch up over an elegant drinks reception amongst the grand setting of our historic house. We offer a delicious choice of canapés to give your guests a taste of the fabulous wedding breakfast to come. Whether you prefer classic canapés like baby Yorkshire puddings with rare fillet of beef, something a little more informal like our honey and mustard cocktail sausages, or Asian-inspired canapés like our moreish salt and pepper tiger prawns with sweet chilli sauce, we’ll serve up tasty bites everyone will be raving about.
The main event
Take your seats in Hodsock’s classically beautiful Pavilion for a wedding breakfast like no other. We offer four different menu packages to suit your foodie preferences and wedding budget – each one indulgent and utterly delicious. We understand that your wedding menu is such a personal thing. It’s something that really does define your day, so we offer total flexibility. You are very welcome to mix and match across our menus to create your perfect dining experience. Alternatively, our Head Chef and team would be delighted to craft a bespoke menu specifically for your celebration. Whatever your foodie heart desires, we can help.
Food to refuel
We don’t want your evening guest to feel like they’ve missed out. That’s why at Hodsock Priory we put as much effort into our evening menus as we do the wedding breakfast. Take your pick from a hearty hog roast, authentic Neapolitan sourdough wood-fired pizzas, sumptuous help-yourself buffets or an informal BBQ.
Fun foodie extras
At Hodsock Priory we love to help our couples personalise their wedding day – and this includes the food. We have a creative choice of fun foodie ‘add-ons’ to really elevate your day. Savoury fans will love our Hodsock cheese tower. This quirky alternative to a traditional wedding cake is made up of tiers of artisan cheese, served with crackers, homemade chutneys and more.
If you’re more of a sweet-tooth couple, why not treat yourself (and your guests) to our dessert grazing table? Featuring chocolate covered strawberries, brownies, blondies, mini Bakewell tarts, mini treacle tarts, flapjacks and seasonal fruit, it’s guaranteed to be a crowd pleaser.
We know you won’t regret hiring our ice cream tricycle for your summer wedding. There’s a choice of three ice cream flavours, which you can personalise with chocolate flakes, sprinkles and sauces in your choice of cone or tub. Delicious!
Late night munchies
Once the celebrations are over, we would be delighted to serve up a late-night treat to you and your overnight guests. Before you head to your on-site bedrooms at Hodsock Priory, our team will serve fabulous sharing boards of cheese, Iberico ham, olives and more, with a glass of port to round of the evening.
The drinks
Your wedding is going to be the biggest party you ever throw, so you want to do it in style. At Hodsock we make sure the drinks are flowing and offer plenty of choice to suit your style – whether that’s champagne, bespoke cocktails or world-class wine. We also have plenty of refreshing non-alcohol options, like virgin mimosas, rose lemonade and 0% alcohol beer. For something a little bit special, add on our drinks dressing bar – where guest can personalise their tipples with a selection of fruits, berries, herbs, syrups and liquors.
