Catering By Word of Mouth loves food; food that is fresh, natural, bright and colourful. They purchase the very best ingredients; and then blend them with skill and imagination to create unusual, stylish, mouth watering menus that tempt the senses and please the palate. Their team of chefs have a variety of skills and culinary experience. They relish the challenge of a spectacular formal banquet, as well as a relaxed dinner for eight; and they love to create fabulous food; whether it be an African Feast, a superb wedding dinner – or a good old South African Braai. Hiring Each year By Word of Mouth travel around the world in search of the latest, most ravishing, beautiful and fun additions to their Hiring division for you to choose from. They have just imported chairs not seen yet in South Africa but incredibly popular in Europe and America. They offer an extensive range of coloured glassware imported from Europe and the Far East, not to mention their in-house range of unique and upmarket cutlery and crockery, that will set your occasion apart from the rest. Their marquees are as simple as a tiny tent for tea or as a transparent cathedral under the African sky. They will build you what you want – on you balcony in Sandton, at your mansion on the Vaal or in your office car park. However seemingly impossible, they will make it happen! Beverages Food and drink go together like “love and marriage”. Beverages should complement the theme of the occasion whether it is a Moroccan tent, a beach party or a traditional wedding in beautiful gardens. More importantly though, your beverage selection should compliment the style of food that you have chosen. Attention to this detail is not enough and one should compliment the fine selection with outstanding service and a supply that does not overindulge or underestimate. Flowers At By Word of Mouth, flowers are always glorious; their designs and arrangements distilling and reflecting your ideas and tastes – whether contemporary or traditional, minimal or flamboyant.
