We Brits have a special relationship with the great outdoors. We’re a nation of walkers, picnickers, and festival-goers, armed with a deep-seated optimism that this time, just maybe, the weather will hold. It’s this spirit that makes an outdoor event in the UK such a brilliant and uniquely British affair.
From a rustic country wedding in a Cotswolds field to a farm festival in the Yorkshire dales, taking your celebration outside opens up a world of possibility. But let's be honest, the star of any memorable get-together is the food. The right catering doesn't just feed your guests; it creates an atmosphere, gets people talking, and becomes a central part of the experience.
As event professionals who have planned parties in every corner of this green and pleasant land, we know the ins and outs of outdoor catering. It comes with its own set of challenges, from unpredictable forecasts to logistical hurdles. But fear not. We’re here to share our expertise and guide you through planning a fantastic al fresco event, anywhere in the UK, without the stress.
One of the greatest joys of an outdoor event is the freedom to choose your backdrop. The UK is blessed with a stunning variety of spaces, each offering a different feel for your celebration.
Once you’ve found your perfect patch of the UK, it’s time to think about the delicious food that will grace your tables.
Outdoor catering has come a long way from lukewarm sausage rolls and soggy sandwiches. Today’s suppliers are creative, passionate, and can deliver incredible food in almost any location. The theme you choose will define the atmosphere of your event.
Understanding the budget is a crucial first step. While prices can vary slightly depending on your region, a general guide for quality outdoor catering across the UK is between £12 and £30 per person.
At the more accessible end of the scale, around £12–£20 per head, you’ll find a fantastic range of single-offering caterers. This price point is perfect for securing a high-quality food van serving one type of cuisine exceptionally well, such as wood-fired pizza, fish and chips, or gourmet hot dogs.
When your budget moves into the £20–£30+ per head bracket, your options expand significantly. This can cover a full-service, multi-course BBQ, an elaborate buffet, a paella and tapas package, or hiring several street-food vendors. You're investing in more variety, more staff, and a more comprehensive service for your guests.
Over our years in the industry, we’ve learned that a successful, stress-free event comes down to a few key principles. Following these golden rules will ensure your outdoor celebration is remembered for all the right reasons.
The sheer number of catering options can be overwhelming. The key is to narrow down your search effectively from the very beginning.
Vague pricing and slow communication are the enemies of smooth planning. Insist on clarity and efficiency from the start.
Your event should be a true reflection of you. Don't settle for a one-size-fits-all package when you can have something tailored to your tastes.
The people you hire are an integral part of your event. Their attitude and professionalism can make a huge difference to the overall atmosphere. A great supplier provides more than just a service; they provide a fantastic experience for you and your guests.
This is your party, and you deserve to enjoy it. The final rule is to ensure you have the safety nets in place to allow you to do just that. Book through a platform that vets its suppliers and offers protection like a money-back guarantee. Knowing you're in safe hands is the ultimate stress-reliever.
Across the rolling hills, ancient woodlands, and beautiful coastlines of the UK, countless perfect spots are waiting to host your celebration. With a bit of planning and the right team of professionals, you can create a truly unforgettable outdoor event.
