	MARQUEES Without a doubt a Wedding Breakfast that takes place in a marquee is a stylish affair. Reputable Marquee companies can now offer top of the range products and equipment that can allow you to transform a garden, field or paddock into a fairytale setting for your big day. You may be surprised by how little space is needed to set up an impressive venue. Heaters and air conditioning ensure an ambient atmosphere whatever the British weather, making this an increasingly popular choice with brides. Most Marquee companies, however are not Catering Specialists and that is where we come in. We are highly experienced in all aspects of Marquee Catering and although your Marquee company may suggest a Catering Company most clients prefer to have a choice of Caterers. With our expertise we will ensure that your stunning location works in a practical sense with regards to your Catering needs. We will meet you on site to discuss your reception and advise you on aspects which may need consideration given the location. Although all our menus are available for Marquee work, depending on the menu chosen and facilities available it may be necessary to bring in a full field kitchen. Our menu prices are based on the assumption that limited kitchen facilities are available at the venue, where the hire of a field kitchen proves necessary you should anticipate an additional cost from hiring in specialist equipment, which in most circumstances will not exceed £250 plus vat. PRIVATE HALL & FUNCTION VENUE HIRE The days of dreary old Church and Village Halls have long gone. There are now some really exciting and original Venues to choose from. Hiring a Private Hall means that you will probably have more choices with regards to the location, you may also, for example, have a personal association with a particular club or hall, which will make the venue special to you. You will certainly have more choice when it comes to choosing a Caterer and providing the food and drink. Although you may already have some ideas of your own, you may also wish to consider the following venues, which are known to us and which we think are extra special.

THE LANDMARK ARTS CENTRE--TEDDINGTON, MIDDX

This is a really fantastic Venue perfect for creating the WOW factor. We are very proud of our association with the Landmark Centre as their preferred caterers. The magnificent Grade II* listed building was formerly the Church of St Alban the Martyr. The construction was completed in 1889 and the church used for worship until the early 1970s, being informally known as the 'Cathedral of the Thames Valley' in recognition of its towering presence. The church, originally designed for a congregation of 1200, became redundant and was neglected for many years. However a passionate campaign by local people and others interested to preserve Victorian
architecture meant that the building was rescued to become the home of a new charitable art centre and is now also available for
private hire. Few other venues can comfortably hold 200--220 for a seated Wedding Reception. Visit the Landmark Arts Centre web site at www.landmarkartscentre.org
