It's summer. And, whether you're planning a dreamy waterside wedding or a garden party in the sunshine, you can't go wrong with a light and delicious menu, which utilises the rich bounty of the season. We're talking fresh fish caught in local waters, cheeses churned on nearby farms and vegetables nurtured in Cornish soil.

A classic menu of soups, salads and sandwiches is a fail-safe choice to tickle your guests' taste buds. Soups are a versatile and crowd-pleasing option, packing a variety of fresh vegetables and flavour into one uber colourful dish. Follow the soups with salads bursting with zesty tastes and textures, from crispy squid to smoked salmon and crunchy peppers to tender chicken. Serve up a scrumptious array of sandwiches alongside the salads, filled with succulent beef, creamy cheese, fresh vegetables and delicious dressings. For maximum impact, choose ingredients that look as colourful as they are delectable to whet your guests' appetites.
