This is what we have to choose from (all a bit ponsey tbh) but what would you order from the list below if you were invited to my wedding, as i have to choose one starter one main and one desert for everyone and i have no idea what to go for (im also not allowed to deveate from this list either ) ....

STARTER

A salad of infant pears and cantaloupe melon with citrus cooked king prawns

A risotto of buttered corn and broad bean with crisp skinned sea bass

Hot smoked salmon with a palm sugar and mustard crust, wasabi tobiko caviar and citrus butter sauce

Pressing of duck with soda bread tweels and micro garlic

Pressing of duck with soda bread tweels and micro garlic
(only because I hate seafood of any kind

Porchetta of pork with carved fillet and textures of onions and tempura sage and apple mash
(didn't like what was served with chicken but usually chicken is the safest option followed by pork as some people still have bse issues)

Peach panacotta, vodka jelly and red fruits

(Refreshing and light but not suitable for kids)

veggie
Linguine of spinach and blush tomato with smoked bean curd & a ricotta and
Caraway fritter

(sounds lush)

Just a thought why don't you survey your guests and then take the results from that as your choice? At least then it makes it easier to decide which will be the best to serve.

Is there a veggie starter??

For me it would be:
STARTER
A salad of infant pears and cantaloupe melon with citrus cooked king prawns

MAIN COURSE
Roast Beef with seasonal vegetables roasted potatoes and baby Yorkshire pudding and served with cooking juices

DESSERT
Warm chocolate brownie with white chocolate mousse and maple syrup

VEGETARIAN OPTION
Linguine of spinach and blush tomato with smoked bean curd & a ricotta and
Caraway fritter

well i don't like any of the starters so couldn't really choose but for main i would go for beef as you can't really go wrong with that and then the brownie as it is my fav pudding!!

good luck choosing!

xx

dove the veggie starters are any of the veggie options but a smaller portion apparently!!

hmm prawns, beef, brownie or sticky toffee pudding (would have trouble deciding between those two deserts) xx

Wow, What an amazing menu. I would go with Prawns, beef and brownies. Yummmmmy :-) x

I'd go for sea bass, roast beef and sticky toffee pudding. I'd also go for the tagliatelle for the veggie option. Sounds fab though. xxx

the thing is is my venue charges £80pp and to do a choice would mean they will charge more to the point of £100pp as it means more chefs! (already asked and this is what they have said!!)

what i might do is have a veggie meal and a meat meal that way people could have either meal and decide before they got there?? does that sound ok?

It also means when you do the seating plan you can show the staff where the veggies are sitting so they serve the right meal to the right table.

I think it's quite common to have to pick the menu for your guests. I can't remember a wedding where there was a menu choice for a sit down meal that I've been to. Obviously they did different stuff for kids or people with special dietary requirements, but other than that, everyone got served the same thing.

awwwww if theres a price difference of 20pp i wud choose! go for the safe options like starters- the prawns then a veggie option of mayb tomato n basil soup? cos every1 like sthat lol mains u will hav 2 go wiv the beef cos all others hav sumting weird on it that u mtie get people not likin and every1 likes roast dinner lol and dessert they all sound gud but cos ure havin a summer weddin i wud go wiv the cold dessert and hav a kiddies choice x

kaya i bene to 3 weddins lin last 2 years and we always had a chocie ( mayb not as nice as them options lol) mainly between a beef dinner and chicken wrapped in bacon n a veggie option!

I been to a fair few to, and only had a choice at 1, and that was cos it was at a buffet. lol.
Maybe it's different in different parts of the country. I've not found a single venue down here that's let you have a choice for your guests other than a buffet :-(

ooo the brownie sounds lovely, and im a vegetarian and the tagliatelle sounds yummy (:

Salmon
Beef
Brownie

Sounds yummy :)

i'd go for the salad for starter
beef for main
chocolate brownie for dessert
:)

A salad of infant pears and cantaloupe melon with citrus cooked king prawns
Roast Beef with seasonal vegetables roasted potatoes and baby Yorkshire pudding and served with cooking juices

torn between Peach panacotta, vodka jelly and red fruits or

Warm chocolate brownie with white chocolate mousse and maple syrup
