Winter wants depth, comfort and richness, but that doesn\u2019t mean heavy. Our goal is to create\u00a0seasonal wedding menus\u00a0that feel warming, elegant, and full of personality. While the British produce calendar may look quieter than at the height of summer, the glorious brassicas, winter roots, game, shellfish, mushrooms and citrus of winter can really shine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Surprise comes from contrast.

Isabella is an art historian specialising in embroidery at The Royal School of Needlework. Her dress was an Alice Temperley featuring stunning embroidery and the cake had an embroidered pattern also. The whole wedding was completely unique to the couple.

So we designed a menu that meant she didn\u2019t miss a thing. They had hand-dived scallops cooked in miso butter and seaweed for starters. Then hay brined chicken for main and a classic sticky toffee pudding for dessert.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4606\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4606\" style=\"width: 902px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4606\" src=\"https:\/\/www.huntshamcourt.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/Alex_Izzy_Luna_0813.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"902\" height=\"1353\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.huntshamcourt.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/Alex_Izzy_Luna_0813.jpg 1067w, https:\/\/www.huntshamcourt.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/Alex_Izzy_Luna_0813-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.huntshamcourt.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/Alex_Izzy_Luna_0813-336x504.jpg 336w, https:\/\/www.huntshamcourt.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/Alex_Izzy_Luna_0813-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.huntshamcourt.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/Alex_Izzy_Luna_0813-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.huntshamcourt.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/Alex_Izzy_Luna_0813-118x177.jpg 118w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 902px) 100vw, 902px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4606\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Luna Photography<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center\"><b>Do you have any tips for couples planning a winter wedding menu \u2014 perhaps ways to add a seasonal twist or enhance the guest experience?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Lean into the season, don\u2019t fight it.
