Hosting a buffet reception and not sure where to start? Don’t fancy paying a fortune in caterer costs? Try Waitrose online ordering and home delivery service.

With plenty of vegetarian options too, they even provide eight varieties of wedding cake and ice sculptures. You can place your order as little as five days before the date for food and 42 days for the cake.

A few selections…

Set buffets – think filo tarts, assorted rolls, salads, tortilla wraps and beyond

Canapes – from crostinis to a smoked salmon and black lumpfish roe chequeboard

Desserts – Cheese boards, fruit baskets, tarts, gateaux and mousses.

Even the wedding cake – with three tiers of rich fruit topped with white pearl icing and fabric flowers, the one above is £215. We quite like the three tier chocolate twist too, laced with orange liqueur and fudge icing £165
