Best of British

A Queen’s Guard, an English butler and a flying Union Jack…this farewell party was a celebration of all things British to mark the end of an Australian chapter.
Under the stars of a beautiful Sydney winter night, Katering transformed this family home into a stately English manor. Guests were greeted at the driveway by a formal Queens Guard before being welcomed into the home by an English butler for pints of lager, champagne and hearty British food.
The finely crafted menu included:
- Mini Yorkshire puddings
- Pigs in blankets
- Smoked trout mousse with crostini
- Bangers and mash
- Butter chicken curry
- Spotted dick and Eton mess for something sweet
As the night progressed, guests moved into the pop up nightclub for British cocktails and music. The quintessential Sherlock Hound and Winter Garden were shaken to order and garnished with wedges of orange and delicate edible flowers.
A black London cab ferried guests home at the end of the night with memories of a world full of good friends, warmth and English charm.

To celebrate the launch of Vittoria Coffee’s new organic range, Katering created a beautiful breakfast menu that was a perfect mix of fresh seasonal fruit and warming organic produce.
The light and healthy breakfast included:
- Assorted smoothies
- Rhubarb and pear compote with low fat Greek yoghurt
- Bircher muesli with grated apple, slivered almonds and berries
- Sweet corn fritters with sour cream and smoked salmon
Part of the Aroma Festival at the Rocks in Sydney, guests were entertained under the Vittoria Coffee marquee with baristas making delicious coffees to order.
Pots of apples, native flowers and succulents created a rustic feel to reflect Vittoria Coffee’s new launch into the organic market. We were thrilled to be a part of this annual Sydney event.

We have recently come across a wonderful and unique alternative to the traditional white marquee. SamiKata Tipi Events is Australia’s first nordic tipi hire company and we are loving this stunning concept. 
The beautiful katas originate from the Sami people of Lapland and have been imported from Sweden. Their appeal is in their versatility, SamiKata Tipis are perfect for intimate parties or can be joined together in various configurations to create an incredible space for over 200 guests. 
The neutral tones mean you have the option of dressing up your kata or leaving them elegantly simple. The sides can also be dropped to create a more traditional tipi kata style feel or raised to form a beautiful canopy. 
A stunning extension of any garden, beach or field, SamiKata Tipi recently provided kata’s for a Hermes beach party at Neilson Bay and have hosted many other exclusive events. 
Whether you are creating an impressive corporate event, an unforgettable wedding or a memorable birthday celebration we are loving Australia’s first tipi kata hire for creating truly unique and special events.
