Catered to our every need
Magda and Joe were fantastic from the get go. In our culture, we have very specific dishes at a wedding so we went in with a solid idea of what we wanted. But this was unlikely to be replicated by going to an external caterer (the dishes we wanted are only available in a Chinese restaurant but we didn't want our reception there) however the menu that they came up with blew us away. They came up with a fantastic 10 course menu and we tasted each dish before the big day. The results were hugely satisfying. Even our parents, who used to be in the food catering business were impressed with the favours that were produced and we knew they were going to be the ones to get approval from. On the day itself, everything ran smoothly and on time, we were very well looked after and many of our guests complimented us on the food choices. Thank you Magda, Joe and Team for the wonderful experience! We could not recommend them enough.

Best day
We used Crafted Events for our wedding in June this year and they were incredible! From the planning stage where I spoke regularly with Magda, discussing variations of ideas that she always had patience and suggestions for, through to the day itself when they seamlessly and effortlessly (or so it looked!) served us drinks, canapés, our wedding breakfast, a sweets grazing table and a pizza van for our evening guests! Weddings can be so busy and fly by so fast, and we didn't have to even think of what we needed, Magda and the team were already there and prepared to get it for us. Our wedding breakfast was absolutely delicious and the canapés were my personal favourite - fresh, flavourful and so beautifully made. Our photographer commented that the sweet grazing table was the most impressive he'd ever seen and we were amazed by it. At the end of the night they cleared everything away and wrapped up the leftovers for us to take home the next day. I cannot stress enough how pleased we were with Crafted Events, Magda and the whole team. They were pivotal in making it as special and stress-free as it was and we're so so glad we went with them. If you're considering using the team for your event, I highly recommend them!

Super
We could not have been more impressed with the team for the catering they did for our wedding! We started the whole wedding planning process with a lots of ideas, but little direction (!) & the team worked closely (and patiently!) with us to devise a menu that suited both our theme, venue and the guests. They delivered an incredible BBQ feast with canapes. Thank you

The catering was absolutely excellent. From the outset Magda helped curate a wonderful selection of canapés and bowl dishes. With so many choices of gourmet food it seemed a little daunting at first, but It’s clear the company have great experience in guiding you to make appropriate choices for particular events. The team were wonderful, friendly, hard working people. They were prompt, courteous, and very tidy. The food was absolutely excellent, and beyond the quality we had expected.

FAQs

How would you wow the judges on Masterchef?

Oh, I’d definitely wow them by combining flawless technique with a bit of creativity and a touch of the unexpected! I’d start with a classic dish—maybe a perfectly cooked risotto—but then I’d add my own twist: edible gold flakes (because, why not?), and a surprise burst of citrus to balance out the richness. And, of course, I'd plate it like a work of art—because we all know the judges eat with their eyes first! If they asked for something sweet, I'd serve a dessert with layers of texture—like a chocolate mousse that melts in your mouth, paired with a crispy praline and a tangy fruit compote. You can’t go wrong when you balance richness with freshness! But really, I’d just make sure I had a big smile and a confident “let's make this magical” vibe—because cooking is all about passion and fun, right?

What is the most innovative dish you have created for a wedding?

One of the most innovative dishes we’ve created for a wedding was a deconstructed seafood tower. Instead of the traditional multi-tiered display, we served individual portions of lobster, oysters, shrimp, and crab claws in beautiful, edible shell bowls. The twist? Each “bowl” was made of crispy, baked parmesan cheese, adding a savory crunch to the delicate seafood. We paired it with a fresh citrus aioli and a micro-herb garnish, which elevated the whole experience. It was not only a stunning visual centerpiece but also a completely unique way to enjoy seafood, turning it into an interactive and personalized experience for guests. They absolutely loved the concept—and it was a huge hit!

What is the food of love?

The food of love? That’s a tough one, but I’d say it’s something that brings people together and makes them feel cared for. For me, it’s definitely comfort food with a twist—dishes like creamy risotto or a rich chocolate mousse that evoke warmth and indulgence. There’s something about sharing a meal that has a bit of soul to it that creates connection. But, if we’re talking about pure romance, I’d go with oysters—elegant, indulgent, and known for their aphrodisiac qualities! Paired with a glass of champagne, they’re the perfect start to a celebration of love. Plus, when you share a dish that’s so intimate and special, it just feels like the love is in the air (and on the plate)!

What is your secret ingredient?

It’s definitely passion! When you pour your heart into every dish, it really makes all the difference. But if I had to pick an actual ingredient, it would be a dash of citrus—whether it’s a squeeze of fresh lemon, a zest of orange, or a hint of lime. It brightens up the flavors in almost any dish and adds a burst of freshness that can take it to the next level. It’s all about finding that perfect balance, and sometimes, a little citrus is the magic that ties everything together. Plus, it always adds a little zest to life—and who doesn’t love that?
