We\u2019re looking at the wedding catering trends<\/a><\/span> for 2022, green menus and why winter weddings are having a moment.<\/p>

This year\u2019s main trend is RELIEF! After the emotional whiplash of two years of isolation, lockdown, and quarantine – couples are simply rejoicing in the ability to be with each other and their loved ones once again. A whole new value has been bestowed on what we once took entirely for granted, and weddings are reflecting this.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Couples are moving away from stuffy formalities and instead embracing a more sociable, intimate style of event.<\/p>

So how does this translate to wedding catering trends?<\/p>

Well, where once we were seeing very formal set menus with small, carefully constructed portions, we are now seeing flavourful sharing feasts! Picture rustic mezze boards, tapas, antipasti, bowls, and platters overflowing with delights, allowing your guests to have as much or as little as they like.<\/p>

You\u2019ll find this more casual approach to your wedding breakfast really brings people together in an entirely unique, intimate atmosphere. This also allows you much more freedom when planning your food, as you won\u2019t be confined to small plates and portions; if you want sharing platters overflowing with ten different variations of your favourite brownie recipe, we\u2019ve got you.<\/p>

If you\u2019re in need of some inspiration, check out our sharing feast ideas here<\/strong><\/a>, but it really is just for inspiration purposes, because we\u2019ll cook you up whatever you can dream of.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Another wedding catering trend that we\u2019re seeing make its way to the forefront of the crowd in 2022 is vegan and vegetarian menus<\/a><\/strong>. As more people are embracing the health benefits of a meat-free lifestyle and being more environmentally conscious, vegan wedding catering is making its voice heard. Although a lot of people are often quick to turn their noses up at the very thought of a vegan meal, we find that when it\u2019s done right (and we mean really<\/em> done right), even the most devout meat-eaters tend not to even notice that their meal was entirely plant based.<\/p>

At Kemp & Kemp we\u2019re hugely proud to have been pioneering truly innovative, well-rounded, vegan, and vegetarian menus for many years now, so we\u2019re delighted to see them really receiving the recognition they deserve on the wedding scene. And no, when we say \u2018vegan\u2019 we don\u2019t mean \u2018bland mushroom sludge\u2019, we mean vibrant, sizzling, crackling, colourful dishes absolutely crammed full of flavour – that your guests will be raving about for years to come.<\/p>

Similarly, couples are looking more and more for good, honest food. They want to know where their ingredients have come from and that they haven\u2019t come at the expense of the planet. Kemp & Kemp is committed to sustainability, always using locally sourced, fresh, and seasonal produce, avoiding unnecessary airmiles and supporting our local farmers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The demand for winter weddings that we are seeing is higher than ever before. Highly prized spring and summer dates are being booked up so far in advance, and at such increased prices, that winter weddings are becoming the more feasible alternative for a lot of couples.<\/p>

There also seems to be a collective realisation within the industry that, actually, winter weddings are incredibly romantic and unique. We\u2019re completely falling in love with the aesthetic of candlelit winter feasts, frosty photographs, log fires, mulled wine, hot chocolates \u2026 We could go on!<\/p>

If that wasn\u2019t enough, winter really is the season to go big with your food and indulge, which obviously we are entirely on board with. Of all the wedding catering trends emerging this year, this is probably a firm favourite of ours! We LOVE working with you to craft sparkling winter menus, (boeuf bourguignon, gourmet sausage and creamy mash, buttery fruit crumbles).<\/p>
