Pre Dinner Drinks and Cocktail Food
As guests arrive they are offered a selection of beverages from the bar together with cocktail food, served butler style.
This would usually be for one to one and a half hours.
Wedding Breakfast
Guests are then invited to be seated in the main function room. The Master of Ceremonies welcomes the guests on behalf of the bride and groom and advise them of how the evening will proceed,eg when the speeches are, plus any house keeping items.
Following this either the Wedding Buffet or the Set Menu is served. With the buffet meal the bridal group have the choice of either being served at their table or selecting from the buffet.
After the bridal group have been served the Maitre 'D will arrange either sevice of the set menu or for each table of guests to proceed through to the buffet.
At Miramar Links there is always plenty of food and guests are encouraged to have second helpings from the buffet.
Between the main course and dessert is an ideal time to have speeches and the ceremonial cutting of the wedding cake.
The choices for desserts are endless. You can have a selection of desserts served at the buffet or choose just one dessert which is plated and served to the tables by the waiting staff. One of the benefits of selecting one dessert is that your guests only have to get up once to the buffet.
Here we have shown the Cardomom and Orange Panna Cotta that is listed on the sample buffet menu It is surrounded by a berry fruit couli and a moat of passion fruit couli.
This is a deliciously light dessert and great way to end the wedding breakfast.
Tea and Coffee
Freshly brewed Coffee and a selection of Twining's Teas are served buffet style to enable your guets to have tea or coffee when ever they want. Serving of the wedding cake.
