Hog Roast Kingsbridge recently had the pleasure of catering for a Barbie-themed hen party, planned in celebration of bride-to-be Amelia’s upcoming nuptials. The mastermind behind this unforgettable celebration was none other than her dedicated maid of honour, Kat. Their lifelong friendship, which had been nurtured since childhood, was grounded in their shared love for all things Barbie. So, when the time came to plan the ultimate hen party, there was no question about the theme. And with the excitement of the new Barbie film in cinemas, finding on-theme outfits was a breeze for the thrilled guests.
The party took place in a charming local function space, which Kat transformed into a properly pink paradise. No detail was spared, as the venue was adorned with pink decorations galore—balloons, streamers, and delicate flowers created an enchanting atmosphere. A life-sized Barbie box cutout awaited guests, offering a playful photo opportunity that set the tone for the festivities.
But the pink-themed magic didn’t end there. A candy floss machine and an array of pink treats were elegantly displayed on a grazing table. To add a touch of sophistication to the Barbie-themed soirée, Kat had also enlisted the skills of a mixologist to craft a variety of Barbie-themed cocktails that delighted the guests.
Now, let’s talk about the culinary stars of the evening— Hog Roast Kingsbridge’s dedicated catering managers, Adam and Stacey. They went above and beyond to exceed all expectations, serving a lip-smacking feast with a smile that left everyone raving. The Hog Roast Dining Experience menu began with a selection of mouthwatering canapés to tantalise the taste buds.
For the main course, the guests were presented with a choice of succulent garlic and rosemary-studded lamb with mint sauce or delectable whole roasted free-range chickens rubbed with thyme and sea salt. Those with a preference for vegetarian fare were equally satisfied with Hog Roast Kingsbridge’s irresistible BBQ-pulled jackfruit rolls.
Sides included roasted new potatoes and a selection of vibrant salads, which perfectly complemented the main dishes. To wrap up the gastronomic journey, guests were treated to vacherins of strawberries with passion fruit cream or a refreshing fresh fruit salad, providing a sweet ending to this culinary adventure.
Amelia’s Barbie-themed hen party was a testament to the enduring power of friendship, with Kat pulling out all the stops to create an unforgettable celebration. Hog Roast Kingsbridge was honoured to be part of this special day, adding a touch of elegance and deliciousness to the festivities with our tasty recipes.
