When it comes to planning the perfect ‘big day’ you may have an idea in mind or you may need a little guidance along the way.
Either way, attending a wedding fair is the best way to see exactly what you can achieve and even see a sample of the suppliers’ work beforehand.
We cater to weddings all across Lancashire and we have a long list of suppliers we have specifically chosen to work with that are eager to meet you and help you create your dream wedding.
Our wedding fairs give you the luxury of speaking one to one with them all and see your dreams start to come to life.
TASTE TEST
Our wedding fayres are meticulously created for you and whoever you may bring along. We want you to get the most out of your visit to us so we are always happy to create a little taster for you to enjoy.
Throughout the day you will be able to see our staff offering out canapes for you to try. These canapes are miniature versions of things you will find on our wedding menus. From savoury to sweet, you will enjoy a mini sample menu that will help get you thinking about the kind of food you would like your guests to be served.
From here we can arrange for you to come and have a consultation or invite you to one of our wedding food tasting sessions where you can chat about your menu and taste as you go.
Not sure where to start with your wedding menu? We have sample menus available to send out to you covering a variety of different styles and options. From BBQ’s, Buffets and Hog Roast to your traditional sit down meal (and everything in between) there can be a lot to choose from but rest assured we will support you any way we can.
BROWSE
The whole reason why wedding fayres are SO important is that you get the chance to see other providers who can help create your perfect day and see what it is they do.
Wedding fayre exhibitors have their own stall situated perfectly so that there is no chance of you missing anyone and are there to discuss what they do and how they can adapt what they do for your day. You can ask them as many questions as you like, chat about your day and even take their contact information.
We know that this can be a lot to remember so we put together little goodie bags for you with each service provider’s details and a little something from ourselves for you to go home with. So if you do forget anything or need to ask any more questions, you have everything you need right in front of you.
Getting the chance to browse other wedding service providers is an opportunity you do not want to miss especially when you’re in the planning stages. All of our suppliers are local to us and you!

FAQ's
What is a wedding fair and what happens at them?
A wedding fayre is your chance to come and say hello to us, your potential caterers, and other local service providers. From photographers and videographers right down to your wedding day transport and everything in between. You will be greeted with a smile and you can take your time to walk through each and every stall and start to make your dream day, your reality.
What time do your wedding fairs start and end?
Our wedding fayres start and finishing times completely depend on the time of year and how many people book into them. You do not need to book however we will base our timings on these pre bookings so that we can prepare all of our delicious treats ready for when you arrive. We usually aim to start as early as 10am and start to pack everything down at around 4pm.
How many wedding fairs do you run throughout the year?
Our wedding fayres take place once every four months so we host 3 per year across our venues. This way we can ensure that each wedding fayre is tailored to the particular season in which we are hosting it and gives you a chance to see what we can create all year round.
Where are your wedding fairs hosted?
Our wedding fayres are hosted at one of our three venues and can change depending on which season we are in or how many suppliers are showcasing on their tables. Our main venue for hosting our wedding fayres is our stunning Thurnham Hall which has a backdrop perfect for pictures and we have a full outdoor space for our suppliers to set up and our guests to have the chance to see and experience all we have to offer.
What should I wear? Do your wedding fairs have a dress code?
Wear whatever makes you feel comfortable, we do not enforce a dress code at any of our wedding fayres as this day is about making your dreams a reality - we want to get to know you!
Will I get any freebies or a gift bag when I attend one of your wedding fairs?
What is a wedding fayre without goodies? When you arrive you will be given a gift bag with a little something from each supplier to go home with, along with their individual flyers and all of their contact information so you don’t have to worry about missing anything. As well as this, our talented chefs will be preparing and serving some special canapes and snacks throughout the day.
I am a wedding-based business service, how can I exhibit at your events?
That’s great! We are always looking for fresh, new suppliers to come along and join us at our wedding fayres. All you would have to do is email us at georgia@chefscatering-northwest.uk and we can arrange everything from there.
How much does an exhibitor stall cost for your wedding fairs?
The cost to exhibit your business at one of our wedding fayres does differ slightly based on which venue we are hosting at. This can be anywhere between £50 - £100 depending on how much space you need and which location you would be exhibiting at.
