Reviews of Kemp & Kemp Catering Limited
Weston, Staffordshire
Richard and Karen really are the dream team!
Karen understood exactly what we wanted right from the start and made it so effortless helping us choose everything we wanted.
Richard's infamous checklist kept us on track and helped organise everything catering (and everything else too) making sure we had everything in place well ahead of time so there was no stress involved on the day. Their Fabulous Team led by Andre had everything in control on the day and People cant stop talking about how great the food was!
Kemp and Kemp absolutely nailed it, THANK YOU!

If you are thinking about booking Kemp and Kemp for your wedding catering then do not hesitate! Richard and Karen are just the most brilliant duo and we were confident from the first time we spoke to them that we would be in safe hands. They provide a wonderfully personal service and their food is second to none. All of our guests raved about the quality of the food and the generous portion sizes! Richard loves to be organised and sends brilliant checklists to keep you on track – it made the day run so smoothly. They really do go above and beyond and will solve all problems and challenges that arise with minimal fuss and stress. They will stay calm and keep you calm too. I cannot recommend them more highly – booking them was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.

Kemp and kemps balanced professional and personal perfectly. We knew from the moment we made contact that they would provide amazing food and exceptional service - they did just that!
Their organisation and planning was second to none and was immensely helpful when planning a DIY wedding. Throughout the process and from the moment our drinks reception started they ensured our wedding ran smoothly.
The menu Karen designed was perfectly suited to the style of our wedding, we were almost spoilt for choice! The tasting session was invaluable in helping us shortlist - all the food was delicious and Karen was really helpful!
Our guests were blown away with the food, it was of exceptional quality without any pretentiousness! We’ve had loads of compliments, particularly on the three cheese tarts and the make your own pudding, which definitely featured heavily on Instagram!
We couldn’t recommend Karen, Richard and their team highly enough.

Karen, Richard and their team were fab throughout the whole process!
Most importantly the food was absolutely delicious! There was lots of it and it wasn't fussy and pretentious but my goodness it looked and tasted amazing!
Karen and Richard were also so helpful in the run up to the wedding as well though - helping us sort out timings on the day and troubleshoot any things we might not have thought about their experience was invaluable.
Thank you!

The BIGGEST THANK YOU to you and your team for all the support and suggestions leading up to and on the day of our special day. You guys absolutely smashed it!!!! - so many of our guests commented on how wonderful the food was... and different too! Liam was so relaxed and helpful - he had everything under control with such a genuine happy smile, I could literally ask him for anything!! I am so grateful for all your support in the lead up - the checklist covered more than everything which gave me such confidence in handing it over to you guys.

From start to finish Kemp & Kemp, made the whole process ever so easy. Karen and Richard are incredibly organised and gave us lots of guidance for helping the day run smoothly, not just from a catering perspective! The food we had on the day was absolutely perfect and we've had so many of our guests comment on the quality of the food. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kemp & Kemp as wedding caterers.

We got married nearly three months ago and people are still telling us how much they loved the food. If the quality of food is really important to you at your wedding, talk to these guys.
We knew we wanted a sharing board style, probably a roast meat main and something very chocolatey in the dessert, but had no real idea beyond that. An hour talking with Karen about different foods we love, and we basically had our ideal menu sorted. And when they delivered it, it blew away people including some who are very used to 5* hotels and high-end corporate catering.
For the planning, Kemp & Kemp had helpful tools and advice - if you're looking for an independent caterer then you're probably aiming for a fairly DIY wedding, and that makes Richard a godsend! The Famous Checklist is exhaustive, and highlights every little detail of exactly who is doing what and when, that might otherwise fall down the gaps between venue, caterer and other suppliers.
On the day their staff were great - efficient, organised, pragmatic and yet patient and friendly when the smokers, the weak-bladdered and the circulating bride and groom kept getting in their way.
They ran a really good bar for us too, and tidied all the glasses and the rubbish up at the end of the night so we had far less to sort out on the Morning After than we expected.
Also...there was no hassle, no ambiguity, no arguments. They said in explicit detail up front what they would and wouldn't do, and stuck to it. You might think that's to be expected, but I know friends who haven't been that lucky, with terms being changed or renegotiated even in the week before the wedding.
Bottom line, if you want the food to be brilliant and you want caterers who will make your dream wedding simpler to put together, these are the guys you should talk to.

Read lessThe level of service we received from Kemp & Kemp was exceptional! We had the difficult challenge of organising a UK wedding from NZ but Kemp&Kemp helped make the process very straightforward. It all started with a phone call discussing our favourite food and food styles, then they sent us through some bespoke food choices. They were incredibly thorough with checklists which really helped ensure that all our other suppliers and vendors were just as organised and put my mind at rest that everything would go smoothly despite the fact we had never seen the reception venue! I suggest looking at the checklist as soon as Richard sends it through so you have plenty of time to work out certain details. The day before the wedding Richard advised we bought more bubbles which I'm really glad we did as our guests were rather 'thirsty'! Everything went incredibly smoothly and I didn't have to worry about anything on the day as Richard had arranged to check if we wanted to move timings (we did as photos take aaaaages), he arranged for nibbles to be bought to us whilst we were having photos taken, and the food service itself was exceptional. All our guests have been complementing the food and how much they loved the sharing style we chose. Btw - the servings are VERY generous and a few of our guests thought the starter was the main and got rather full!! I will admit I was a little concerned about the size of the deposit (250 pounds, not loads but we had already spent a lot on the food) and there were lots of stipulations about everything being clean/not broken etc. But it is just another example of Kemp&Kemp being incredibly thorough and organised and despite our rather rowdy wedding reception (!) we received our full deposit back.
Thanks so much - couldn't recommend you highly enough!

We were lucky enough to have Kemp & Kemp cater our recent wedding. Their organisation and professionalism in the run-up was second to none and meant that everything went perfectly on the day.
Richard and Karen are great to deal with and they really went the extra mile in order to deliver what we were looking for and had loads of helpful tips and suggestions.
The food was really delicious and all the guests have been raving about how great it looked and tasted. Having it served on sharing boards made it all the more enjoyable, different and memorable.
All in all the service provided was first class, we were delighted with everything they delivered and would highly recommend them to anyone considering choosing them for their wedding.

Kemp and Kemp are fantastic! From the first email sent, to the follow up after our wedding, Richard and Karen have put us at ease completely. Their communication has been excellent and so carefully thought out, to provide us with all the information we needed, exactly when we needed it. The care and attention they give to brides and grooms is second to none and I wholeheartedly recommend them for this award.
