How will our two thoroughly modern, very distinctive royal couples approach choosing their wedding menu?
Royal wedding receptions follow a fairly standard design - a large canapé reception followed by a smaller, more private dinner for around 120 guests, finishing with dancing and further merriment in the evening.
It’s worth remembering that whilst the Royal family are required to follow protocol, they always lead (rather than follow) fashion.
When it comes to choosing their food, I think that both couples have the confidence and maturity to make every aspect their own.
Out will go scripted French menus (so last century) and dishes named in honour of the bride and groom (far too egotistical). Instead, there will be utmost emphasis on provenance of the food. Not just lamb but Welsh Salt Marsh lamb, not just raspberries but Scottish organic raspberries; a selfless showcase of the very best British ingredients.
I will write the next two posts on my thoughts on what each couple will go for.
