Food Your Guests Will Truly Remember
One of the biggest worries couples have is simple:
“Will our guests love the food?”
At Newcastle Gardens, the answer is always yes.
We provide personalised, in-house catering services under the direction of a professional chef with more than 30 years of experience in upscale dining establishments, consulting, and wedding and event catering. We avoid typical problems like misunderstandings, delays from outside vendors, and constrained menu options by handling catering in-house, ensuring that your event goes smoothly and your food is unforgettable.
We offer completely customizable wedding catering services. Our chef collaborates closely with couples to craft a unique wedding menu that embodies their preferences, culture, and goals. Our catering and event planning services offer you total flexibility, regardless of your preference for interactive food stations, buffet-style service, or plated dinners.
We proudly accommodate:
- Food allergies and dietary restrictions
- Gluten-free and food-specific menus
- Personalised menu requests
The result? A dining experience your guests will talk about long after the celebration ends.
True Farm-to-Fork Catering
Fresh, seasonal produce is grown right on-site and used directly in our menus. This allows us to elevate our catering events with ingredients that are local, flavorful, and thoughtfully sourced—enhancing both taste and presentation.
This farm-to-table approach is part of what sets our catering services for events apart and ensures every dish feels fresh, intentional, and crafted with care.
