“We used SaltWind to provide catering support for our father’s wake. The team were very easy to work with and the food was outstanding. It was delicious, fresh, well presented and drew much praise from all who attended. First class and highly recommended.”

Tamar Sage·Wake·

“The catering for our wake was well received by our guests, all of them gave back good fed back on selection of sandwiches, cake and scones. Thumbs up all round. Pasted on your details to several people who enquired as to who do the food.”

Martin Tamblyn·Funeral

“Salt Wind Catering provided the food for our Dad's Funeral Wake. Previously we had a buffet from them for Mum's 90th birthday. On both occasions the food was absolutely perfect. I will use this company again without hesitation , the way it arrived , all boxed and ready to go made it so easy to just take the lids off and start eating ! Thankyou for lovely food in a convenient way , it made both occasions very special.”

Kathy Hendra·Wake & Birthday

“We booked Salt Wind for our wedding and they genuinely were the most accommodating and responsive suppliers we've ever used. We were blown away by their service. The hog roast was delicious and the pasties and scones in the evening went down a treat. Thank you so much for making our day run smoothly! Would absolutely recommend!”
