Weddings by Camberwell Arms
In 2019 we launched Events by Camberwell Arms, our off-site catering team.
The simple idea that underpins our off-site events is bringing what we do here at the Camberwell Arms to you, wherever you would like that to be
Since 2019 we have provided catering for weddings at dozens of venues across London and beyond. Chef Director Michael Davies is at the helm, working alongside a small team of seasoned professionals.
The approach we have to planning weddings is simple and uncomplicated. We believe a wedding day should focus on celebrating love, encourage connections and conversations, and should avoid any form of stress or complications.
Whether you’re looking for delicious food and drink for an intimate ceremony or expert help in planning an event from beginning to end - our dedicated and experienced team is here to help. Trust us to look after you, it’s what we do best day in, day out. Whatever your vision is for your event, we will create a bespoke package to meet your exact requirements using our years of experience catering events of all sizes, at some of London’s and the UK’s most exciting and unique venues.
Our wedding feasting menus reflect the simple but excellent cooking that you will find in our restaurant kitchen, accompanied by the same attentive but informal service the Camberwell Arms is well known for. Our dishes are seasonal but tailored to your preferences, with different celebration styles and levels of personalisation are available.
Ahead of the big day we will provide you with a consultation with our events team, a tailored quote and proposal based on your preferences, a pre wedding full menu tasting at the Camberwell Arms with our Events Head Chef and a selection of wines for you to enjoy at your leisure when choosing the wine for your wedding. Throughout the process you will be in contact with a dedicated member of our events team to discuss all aspects of your booking.

The Camberwell Arms catered and staffed our wedding for 100+ people. We chose them having tasted their food at another wedding, and they pulled off the same feat for us. Food was on time, staff were very organised and polite, and the late night food was spot on.
Our guests were greeted with canapés and fizz, followed by a meal, followed by a cocktail hour and then a bar. Everything they did was professional, from setting the tables to our (precise) instructions to finding those with allergies and making sure they got the right food. They also made sure the kids got food & pudding they would like.
The food was delicious but what really made the event smooth was the delivery.
I cannot recommend them highly enough.

We recently had catering from Events by Camberwell Arms for our wedding and it was amazing. Mathilde was so easy to work with, and a great communicator and fixer in the run up, with such a positive attitude.
The food itself was absolutely delicious, all our guests were talking about it! Thanks to Katy for being so accommodating. The family style sharing is such a good idea. The interactions are great and such generous portions. On the day Lucy (?) in particular was fabulous, but the whole team did so well!
We would throughly recommend using the Camberwell Arms for any event you have! Can’t thank them enough.

We hired Camberwell Arms to cater for our wedding which was one of the best decisions we made during our the planning process.
We’re such big foodies, so the food was always going to be a hugely important part of our wedding day. At other weddings the food is often forgettable (and if it’s remembered, it’s usually for the wrong reasons!). But Camberwell Arms created SUCH delicious food that our guests have been raving about it since the big day which almost feels unheard of at weddings.
The menu they curated for us, infused our English and Indian heritage which we're highly grateful for considering that's not their usual cuisine to deal with.
They were also extremely accommodating for the large amount of dietary requirements we had to consider too.
A special shoutout to Mathilde who was so patient and incredibly accommodating to us. She went above and beyond just planning the logistics of the food and helped us figure out what we needed to do on the day in other areas.
It was so lovely to plan with Mathilde - making us feel very safe in her hands!

Events by the Camberwell Arms were the absolute best for our wedding catering. They are so much more than just caterers - they helped us work out venue layout, timings, table set up, and even made the final call for us on having our ceremony outside on a day where the weather kept changing!
The food was INCREDIBLE. Everything was absolutely perfect - basically our dream meal. So many of our guests came up to us raving about the food. My partner and I had some ideas about what sort of food we wanted, but the CA team really made it everything we could have wanted and more.
Mathilde and her team went above and beyond in ensuring things ran smoothly - which isn’t always easy, as there’s so much going on behind the scenes.
They also thought about so many little elements which just really made the day so perfect - like when our guests went to the drinks reception and we went to have our photos done, Mathilde bought out two glasses of fizz for my partner and I to enjoy during our pics.
Our venue was quite new and as a result, we had a small situation with a fire alarm going off that the venue was unsure how to switch off. Mathilde and her team handled it with so much good grace and calmness. They are are so professional and we couldn’t have asked for more.
Honestly we wish we could do it all over again, and a large part of that is down to Camberwell Arms - so thank you so much.

Thanks to the team at the Camberwell Arms we had the most incredible wedding last week - everyone was raving about the food and couldn't believe the quality + presentation given it was an offsite venue. Many people said it's the best food they've ever had at a wedding! We loved the thought put into the menu and knew as soon as we had the tasting that it was going to be an outstanding meal. Mathilde was incredible throughout the whole process and thought of absolutely everything and kept the day running smoothly - we honestly could not recommend her enough for her co-ordination. The whole team worked incredibly hard and we really can't thank the Camberwell Arms enough for what an amazing day we had!

Camberwell Arms were hands down the most amazing team we could ever have hoped to work with for our June wedding at my parents' house in south London. Right from the start, Mathilde listened carefully to our ideas and understood the kind of vibe and family-style sharing feast that we wanted to create. She advised us at every step of the way, working with us on a bespoke menu, drinks service, and lots of personal details and touches that were important to us. Nothing felt like too much trouble, and we really appreciated her guidance, experience and reassuring presence throughout the entire process.
On the wedding day itself, everything ran incredibly smoothly thanks to Mathilde's management, Lauren's delicious food, and the entire team’s care, kindness and attention to detail. They somehow managed to take everything that we had communicated and turned it into our dream wedding menu. We have had so many compliments on both the food and the service, and it just made everything so much better knowing that we were in such safe hands. Thank you so so much to Mathilde, Lauren and the CA Events team for bringing to life the at-home wedding of our dreams! Isabel and Matt

We used the Camberwell Arms for our December wedding and they created the most beautiful winter menu for us. The communication from start to finish was so professional and the day went off without a hitch. Everything from the private tasting, menu creation, on the day service and the staffing provided was 10/10. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

I’ve worked with the Camberwell Arms as a photographer for a few years now, and I can only say that it’s an absolute pleasure collaborating with them. Not only is their creative, seasonal food exceptional and their drinks selection perfectly matched, but they are absolutely lovely people to work with, and I can’t recommend them enough for any type of event.

It's always lovely working with Lauren, Mathilde and the fantastic team. Their professionalism and dedication to the service are truly impressive. The food is always delicious. My personal favourite is their potatoes & taleggio tart, and not to mention their homemade focaccia.

The Camberwell Arms, who catered for our wedding at Beckenham Place Mansion, deserve the highest praise for their exemplary service. Their professionalism shone through, and their patience and attention to detail during the planning phase were exceptional, guiding us through despite our numerous questions and lack of expertise. On the day of the wedding, their faultless execution ensured that everything proceeded seamlessly and punctually, contributing to the overall success of the event. All the staff were very professional and friendly, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that added to the joy of the occasion. Their outstanding culinary skills were showcased in every dish, earning unanimous praise from all our guests.

Camberwell arms were the caterers for our Wedding in July 2023 and the food was all the guests were raving about. I remember the chef said to me at a tasting that weddings don't have to mean bad food or easy recipes and she was right. Everything tasted so delicious the sharing platters were so sociable and meant less waste and the team were just so amazing from start to finish! Would 100% recommend as it really helped make our day perfect.

The Camberwell Arms catered our wedding reception a couple of weeks ago - we already love the restaurant as it's our local, and having them cater our wedding was just wonderful. The food was exquisite as always, a beautiful seasonal menu that we were able to handpick, including canapes, perfect wine choices and a lovely drinks reception after our ceremony too. All our guests commented on not only how amazing the food was, but how incredibly efficient the service was, and how pleasant every single member of the team was. The team went above and beyond helping us move chairs from ceremony venue to the hall, and in the entire build up they were calm and completely stress-free, something that really helped us relax into what can be quite a stressful process of planning a wedding. It quite simply could not have been better and we are so grateful to Mathilde, Lauren and the entire team for all their work to make the day run so smoothly and be so incredibly delicious! Thank you, highly recommend to anyone for events of all kinds!
