Last week we had the pleasure of returning to one of our favourite Hunter Valley venues, Leaves and Fishes, to cater the beautiful wedding celebration of Jess and Connor.

This was a truly intimate gathering, with the couple choosing to celebrate alongside a small group of their closest friends and family. Events like these always feel incredibly special, allowing everyone to slow down, connect and fully enjoy the moment together.

Guests were welcomed with a selection of delicious canapés as they mingled and explored the stunning grounds of Leaves and Fishes. The venue is lush, green and full of character, often described as a tropical oasis tucked away in the heart of the Hunter Valley’s wine country. Surrounded by greenery and peaceful waterways, it creates such a beautiful setting for a relaxed celebration.

As the evening unfolded, guests gathered under the stars where a beautifully styled long table for twenty had been set. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfectly reflecting Jess and Connor’s vision for a celebration centred around connection, great food and great company.

Dinner was served as an abundant banquet style main course, designed to encourage sharing and conversation. Guests were able to serve themselves and build their perfect plate while chatting across the table, enjoying speeches and soaking in the special atmosphere of the evening. (Menu below)

It was a stunning day from beginning to end, and we feel incredibly grateful to have been part of Jess and Connor’s wedding!
