Is this what the food at Princess Eugenie’s wedding will look like? We show the menu from Royal favourite Petersham Nurseries
THIS is what could be on the menu at Princess Eugenie’s royal wedding, from scallops to sweetbread starters and fillet of hake.
Prince Andrew’s daughter, who’s due to marry fiance Jack Brooksbank this autumn, is one of the few royals to use Pinterest to share inspirational pics.
The 27-year-old included Petersham Nurseries, in Richmond, south-west London, on her board .
She captioned the snap of the fancy garden centre: “Love the Petersham Nursery in London as a wedding destination xx”.
Like her cousin Harry, Eugenie is marrying at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle – making it highly unlikely they’ll travel back to London, a 22 mile trip, for the reception.
But the royals do have the option of bringing a touch of Petersham to Windsor, as the gardening experts offer a mobile food and flowers service to brides and grooms.
