Planning help
Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Think about children’s portions
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
At food time, we carve and serve, then tidy up.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.
