After the Butley Dash 5K, we would be delighted if you could join us for Welcome Drinks at Butley Priory from 7.00 pm.

Food will be provided by Reggia Pizza, who are Italian-born, Suffolk-based Neapolitan pizza makers.

We are thrilled to have worked with Peter Harrison, a local Suffolk-based chef to create a bespoke wedding breakfast.

Peter has over 30 years restaurant experience across the UK, France and Australia. He has worked in Michelin starred kitchens, local boulangeries, and as head chef at neighbourhood restaurants, before opening his own award-winning establishment in Kelsale for five years.

Today, Peter specialises in private events, focusing on using the abundance of good local Suffolk produce to enhance new dishes.

This personalised menu is a celebration of things close to us, local food, shared history, and a few personal favourites along the way.

• The sea bass and samphire is a nod to Olivier’s #ArtOfPlating days, and foraging for wild samphire around Aldeburgh with school friends - bringing a little of the coastline and old memories to the table.

• The burrata - an achilles heel for both Katie and Olivier, is served with ripe tomatoes as an ode to their balcony veg patch - which has seen an abundance of ‘toms’ over the years.

• The bread selection is a small, fun recognition of our Irish roots and long-standing love of bread (Olivier’s housemates can vouch for his daily inhalation of toast).

• Venison was an easy choice! A Suffolk delicacy and something we both love, prepared simply and seasonally.

• The potatoes come from Davina Greenwell’s farm, grown locally and generously shared by a very good friend, who has housed us, fed us and supported us on our many trips to Suffolk.

• And for dessert, chocolate mousse was never in doubt, the bride’s favourite, inspired by her Da, who’s secret recipes made the best desserts. Accompanied by the king of Dutch biscuits - speculaas.

For evening food we will have a chip van serving the groom’s favourite, cheesy chips.

The morning after the night before!

We will be hosting brunch from 11.00 am at the Farmhouse of Butley Priory as an opportunity to rehydrate, nurse sore heads and debrief about the wedding.
