FEATURED WEDDING
We wanted relaxed, sociable food that felt right for Manchester — nothing stiff or formal, just great flavours and everyone around the same table. Follow The Smoke absolutely nailed it. About 130 guests, a converted mill venue in Ancoats, and a feast that kept going all evening.
From the arrival canapés right through to the late wood-fired pizzas, the whole evening had real energy. Slow-cooked meats, sharing sides, everything replenished without anyone having to ask — and our guests with dietary needs were looked after quietly and without any fuss.
The pizzas made live in front of everyone were the moment the room just lit up. Proper theatre, incredible smell, and honestly the best pizza we’ve ever had.
We’d have them back in a heartbeat. Thank you so much.
