Wedding Catering in Richmond — A 2026 Planning Guide

How Wedding Catering Pricing Works in Richmond

Most Richmond couples spend between £20 and £45 per head on wedding catering. Pricing scales with three things: the menu tier (Bronze/Silver/Gold/Platinum), the level of service (drop-off vs. served buffet vs. plated), and staffing for venues that require setup, service, and clearance.

• Bronze — from £15/head (min 20 guests), drop-off, ideal for nikahs and small receptions
• Silver — from £20/head (min 25 guests), chafing dishes + serving staff, our most-booked tier
• Gold — from £25/head (min 30 guests), expanded menu, full staff, crockery and desserts
• Platinum — from £30/head (min 40 guests), full silver-service, live stations and dedicated event manager

Halal Sourcing & Documentation

Every Jaflong wedding uses halal-sourced halal meat and is prepared in our dedicated halal kitchen at TW10 7NF. We provide halal supplier certificates, Food Hygiene Rating 5 documentation, and a full 14-allergen matrix on request — useful for venues, imams, and family members who ask.

Realistic Timings on the Day

We arrive 90–120 minutes before service, set up chafing dishes or live stations, brief venue staff, and serve in waves to keep food at temperature. Most Richmond venues (Bingham Riverhouse, Petersham Hotel, Richmond Hill, Ham Polo Club) have well-defined caterer access — we know them.

• Civil/Nikah ceremony catering: canapés + drinks reception
• Wedding breakfast: served buffet or plated, 60–90 min service
• Evening reception: street-food stalls, live tandoor, or late-night curry

Booking Process & Tastings

We respond to enquiries within 4 business hours and hold dates against a 25% deposit. Complimentary tastings are available for weddings of 100+ guests; smaller events can attend a paid tasting credited back on booking.
