Martine was communicative throughout for my father’s 90th birthday and the result was a very smooth event with great food -
canapés starter; mains brought to the table hot and mini desserts. They are very flexible and can do buffet style if preferred. Out of all caterers, this was the best menu choice for the season (we chose coq au vin for a winter party meal, which was ideal).
Always ask for full staff/food/utensil or cutlery hire costing as you go along so no surprises at the end and Martine is happy to add or remove elements to suit your needs as long as you do that early enough in the booking. Overall would recommend for an event of 13 or more people and Martine was flexible when our numbers fluctuated once I got final RSVPs through. Thanks More...

Thanks Paul we are so pleased you had a wonderful party and it was great to be part of your day. We appreciate your kind words. Martine

Many thanks for your excellent service. From start to finish everything went smoothly. We agreed the catering choices and amount required which was one of the areas I was concerned about as I didn’t want to run out of food but the amount was perfect. The delivery was effortless (i didn’t even need to be there) and the quality of food was great. I would definitely recommend you and already did to people that asked on the night. Many thanks for contributing to making my 50th celebration such a success 👍 More...

Working with Martine and her team we could not have asked for a better catering experience for the wake of my brother in law. The mix of traditional and Greek-style buffet was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented, and it was perfect for the occasion. From start to finish, Martine was fantastic to work with, the communication was clear and responsive, she was really flexible with our needs, and nothing felt like too much trouble. On the day, the staff were incredibly friendly, professional, and respectful, which meant a great deal to us. So many guests commented on how much they enjoyed the food. We’re very grateful for the care and kindness they showed and would highly recommend them. More...

Martine and her team catered for my father’s wake (100+ people) at West Horsley Place. The food was delicious with hardly any left overs and the service discrete, yet extremely efficient. Both food and drink were attractively presented. Martine was a dream to liaise with prior to the event and she gave me useful tips that helped towards the success of the catering. Her ‘can do’ attitude to the last minute increase in numbers was much appreciated too. She and the venue worked well together; it was an extremely positive event. Thank you Martine. More...

Martine and Christine from Russel it Up, were amazing and helped to make mum's wake more bearable. The service from first phone call to clearing away was efficient and promptly delivered. On the day, the food was fresh and very good and both Martine and Christine managed the whole event impeccably, not only caring for our guests but making sure my brother and I were taking time to sit and eat. I would highly recommend this company for your event More...

Thank you Yvonne for your kind words. It was our pleasure to be of help. Martine x

It all worked like clockwork. From the first contact with Martine to the delivery of the food the process was smooth and fault free. It was our Diamond Wedding Anniversary attended by our extended family who included vegetarians and those with gluten issues. With Martine's help we were able to devise a buffet which suited everyone and which was both delicious and plentiful. Cannot recommend Martine and her team highly enough. More...

My event was our 60th wedding anniversary and from the minute I had a conversation on the phone with Martine I felt I was in good hands. We wanted a finger buffet for about 40 people. She made really good suggestions for what might be suitable . Her communications were as good as her food - reliable and professional. Everyone loved the food, so fresh and tasty. I would not hesitate to use RIU again. More...

Martine and team were excellent from initial contact, quote, briefing meeting right through to clear up after the event. 21st birthday - delicious cocktails & canapés, then sliders later in eve. 60 attendees with waiting and bar service. Cannot find fault and highly recommend More...

Many thanks David. It was a lovely celebration and was great to be part of your special day.

Martine and her team from Russell It Up Events provided all the catering at my 50th birthday. This was at my house and there were 60 guests. They did an absolutely fantastic job. Planning was meticulous and Martine took the time to come to my house beforehand to work out how best to set everything up. We had canapés, Thai mains and a range of desserts. The food was of really high quality, taste and presentation. The service provided was meticulous, relaxed and efficient. I had so many comments afterwards from friends about how good the food and service was. Thank you Martine and team for helping to make my party special and one to remember. Really appreciated all your hard work. More...

It was our first time getting someone from the internet and we were anxious but Martine managed to win our trust very quickly. She also used her extensive experience to guide us about what to include in the celebration of our daughter’s 21st birthday to make it much more enjoyable and memorable. She was very prompt with queries and gave detailed responses. Her team who came on the day were friendly, very competent and professional. She took away all the worry and the stress! We had an amazing party! All the guests loved it! More...

Thank you so much for your kind words

Martine at Russell It Up Events provided the catering at my mother's wake. The whole process was very smooth right from my initial enquiry through to the delivery of the food on the day itself. Martine is friendly and professional and was able to advise and guide me on my choices, and catered for the varied dietary requirements of our guests. She thought of details I hadn't considered. I'm delighted that we used Russell It Up Events, and the food was very well received by guests on the day - when you are organising a funeral, knowing that you have a good, reputable caterer on board leaves you free to concentrate on the funeral itself.

Thank you so much we are so pleased that you were happy with our service

Martine has been fantastically helpful. Quick to respond initially, both by phone to discuss and then to quote. We are on a very strict budget so sadly we are not proceeding, but she has still offered to help on a much more limited basis if needed. Definitely worth contacting!

Martine catered for our drinks and canapés Xmas party and she and her team were wonderful - great food, pleasant service and cleaned up before they left

Martine was fabulous to deal with. Efficient, reliable and very simply did exactly what she promised to do without any fuss. When organising a funeral this is exactly the service that's needed. I will be very happy to use Russell It Up Events in the future - hopefully for a happy occasion next time! More...

I was recovering from illness and wanted to give a lunch party but I knew I couldn't do it myself, so last Friday, 28th October, Martine and her daughter Antonia did it for me. Thanks to them It was the most stress-free and relaxing party I've ever given! They did everything including serving AND clearing up every last crumb, the food was delicious and they were so easy to deal with and a pleasure to have around. More...

Russell it up events did a superb job for our summer party! They were very professional, friendly and helpful, and the food was excellent! ! I would thoroughly recommend them to anyone. Fantastic! More...

We had a wedding afternoon party for our daughter and son-in-law at our house for about 40 people. Russel It Up provided the catering and there was plenty of food for all.
Martine came around some weeks before hand to discuss our requirements - a lot of vegetarians, vegans and a couple of lactose and nut intolerants. It was very easy - we selected the sort of things we liked and she gave us a range of prices. Everything was delivered to the table on the day and was enjoyed by all. There was a nice range of canapes, salads and tarts and absolutely delicious. She organised providing the plates, glasses and cutlery - and the best bit - no need to wash up - just return it dirty.

Russell it up events catered for a family birthday party in early August. We were very impressed with the effort Martine and team put into understanding what we wanted for our celebration.

The food was absolutely delicious and very much appreciated by our guests.

It was delivered ready to be served on lovely platters.

We had a lovely day and it was stress free, leaving me time to catch up with loved ones, instead of rushing about getting things ready.

Thank you Martine and Claire. More...

We used Russell It Up for my Father in Law's funeral wake. We asked for vegetarian options as those were his wishes. The food was excellent, communication good and all was delivered on time. Martine made a stressful occasion much more relaxed and I would choose her again, although hopefully for a happier occasion! More...

Wonderful food. Very efficient and well organised. Martine is so nice and made everyone feel well looked after. Just a perfect catering company for any event.

Martine was great to work with and we will definitely use her again.
We can only say a great big thank you for making our day so special.
A 100% score can not really do them justice. My recommendation would be just book them, you won’t be disappointed. More...

We booked Russell It Up because of the great reviews on Bark. We were not disappointed. The day went very smoothly and the team were a pleasure to have around on our special occasion. The food was great! They set everything up smoothly before the event started and packed everything away at the end so we didn't have to lift a finger. The whole day ran exceptionally well and we will definitely be in touch for future events! More...

Martine was a joy to work with. Not only was her food complimented by our 65 guests for our Ruby Wedding party on Saturday night, but she also provided a delicious buffet for a family celebration for 24 the following day. Her input and guidence with running the events was very helpful and both functions ran smoothly allowing us to enjoy our guests company and the wonderful canapes and bowl food. Thank you Martine and team. More...

Martine and her excellent team were very well prepared and organised.
Made me feel completely calm as they soon as they arrived. Martine allowed me to just focus on my guests.
The food was sublime, first class and delicious. I would have no hesitation in booking Russell it up Again 100%. More...

Martine and her staff were very professional and accommodating to our various needs and requirements for the wake we had. Based on our experience of Russell it Up we would highly recommend them. Thank you Martine
