Here at Philleigh Way we love a good wedding, and we love playing a part in delivering an amazing and memorable experience on a bride and groom’s biggest day. You can find out more about what we offer (it starts with the food, but goes right through to consulting and delivering on anything from location and logistics to equipment hire and drinks) over on our dedicated Wedding Catering page, but we’d like now to briefly take you back to the summer of 2019 and one of our favourite weddings of the year, to give you a flavour of what a Philleigh Way wedding is like. We’ll aim to post more of these articles, celebrating the celebrations that we’re involved with, through the 2020 season.
We’ve still got some availability for weddings in 2020, both midweek and even a couple of those “peak” weekends in high summer, for events large or small, in Cornwall or further afield. If you’re going to be tying the knot this year, we’d love to speak to you about how we can help.
Now, without further ado:

“Come hell or high water we will be there for you. When I heard that the Boardmasters Festival 2019 was cancelled because of the threat from 80mph winds, I phoned the bride whose wedding was scheduled for the next day on the cliffs at Maenporth, because we were due to be catering for her in a marquee! I asked what she thought about the expected gales and she said, ‘Let’s go for it.’ I replied, ‘If you’re in, I’m in!’ So the Philleigh Way team and I did it – cooking the entire wedding breakfast on top of a cliff. It was pretty blustery and the marquee was shifting a bit! But we did the married couple proud and it was a really happy day.”
