On February 5th, we hosted our third Busman’s Holiday at the stunning Guildhall in Northampton—and what a night it was! This event is our way of saying a huge thank you to the incredible staff, venues, and suppliers we work with throughout the year.
But this one was extra special. Why? Because we had something huge to celebrate—our recent win at The Wedding Industry Awards, where we were crowned Caterer of the Year 2025! We wanted to celebrate hard, surrounded by the people who make everything we do possible.
Of course, this unforgettable night wouldn’t have been the same without our amazing suppliers. Each one brought their expertise, creativity, and passion to make the evening truly magical.
Franchesqua Sings – A Mesmerizing Duo of Voice & Sax
The incredible Franchesqua Sings took the night to another level with her soulful, powerful vocals, joined by the unbelievably talented saxophonist Rory. Together, they didn’t just perform—they became part of the party, weaving through the crowd, dancing, and playing right in the middle of the action. Their ability to connect with guests made the night feel even more intimate and special. Their high-energy tunes had everyone moving, their performance was an absolute highlight of the evening!
