Welcome to the
wedding menus
“We aim to carry through the idea of affordable luxury to the food and drink offered
here at Easterbrook and my personal goal is to bring forth the key elements of fine dining for any number, offered at a reasonable price. Our team have created menus based on using quality Scottish ingredients and I am always keen to put together bespoke ideas for couples to incorporate any dietary requirements and personal tastes. Like any other part of your special day, I would encourage you to talk to me or your Fairy Godmother if you’d like to create a bespoke package and I wish you the best of luck with your big day. Jonathan Brett, Head Chef

Not only can you enjoy visually stunning food and drink at your reception, you can complete the look by dressing your room and adding some stunning finishing touches. Exclusively available at Easterbrook, Covers & Candy offers a range of options from stylish chair covers, dramatic centrepieces, stationery packages and more. To accompany your food and drinks package, how about considering a Candy Buffet which is available with a colourful concoction of retro favourites, or a more luxurious version if you’d really like to treat yourself? This beautifully presented table can make an inspired centrepiece for your reception and can even make a fun filled alternative to favours - what great value! For ideas, inspiration and more just get in touch with your wedding co-ordinator.
All prices are inclusive of linen, crockery, glassware, service and VAT at the current rate
