Top Caterers for Sweeter Valentine’s Day Events

One of the best ways to celebrate Valentine’s Day is through the language of food. From luxurious chocolates to cupcakes and sweets, food should be at the heart of this romantic occasion. Food speaks to the senses; it sets the mood, and creates lasting memories. 

Whether you’re planning a Valentine’s ball with candlelit tables, or bringing together various couples at another special event, Platter Up can ensure your day is extra special. From platters to grazing boards, we create beautiful food that’s mouthwatering and delectable. 

We appreciate that it’s not just about what’s on the plate; the experience, presentation and quality of the meal are what truly make the occasion special. Themed events are one of our specialities and we love making all life’s occasions special. 

Whether you're hosting a romantic soirée, a Galentine's Day bash on the 13th February, or a corporate Valentine’s event, Platter Up will ensure the food is top-notch. Let’s look at one of our most well-loved platters!

Our Valentine's Day Dessert Platter

One of our most popular choices is our Valentine's Day Dessert Platter. This gives you the chance to indulge in all kinds of yummy goodies, including salted caramel brownies, love heart biscuits, mini cupcakes with pink frosting, doughnuts filled with a rich and creamy chocolate filling, raspberry macarons, strawberries and cream chocolates, and heart-shaped confectionaries.

When it comes to Valentine’s Day events, we appreciate every detail counts. Not only are our platters overflowing with treats, they look simply exquisite. They make the perfect centrepiece for your table and will be popular on Instagram.

Understanding Your Vision

Before booking a caterer, think about the tone of your Valentine’s Day celebration. Is it an intimate dinner party, a grand event with live music, or a relaxed gathering? 

Working with clients in and around London, Platter Up takes Valentine’s Day dining to the next level. We work with you to bring your ideas to life, ensuring the food complements the romantic theme perfectly.

Whether you want to include fresh fruit like strawberries, or a more indulgent platter that appeals to our sweet tooth, we’ve got you covered. 

Creating Your Dream Menu

Valentine’s Day calls for something a little special. Look for caterers who offer versatile and seasonal menus, featuring dishes that feel indulgent yet balanced. We can accommodate various dietary requirements, ensuring no guests feel left out due to allergies or preferences.

Popular solutions include our grazing tables and platters, with our Valentine’s Day designs as pretty as they are tasty. They can feature a cornucopia of goodies, including Love Hearts sweets, heart-shaped marshmallows and chocolates. 

Food Personalised to Your Celebration

Platter Up is dedicated to tailoring our services to your needs. Whether you want a bespoke cocktail menu, creative canapés, or a signature dessert, customisation is key to making your event feel unique and personal.

Quality and Presentation

The best food isn’t just tasty—it’s a feast for the eyes too. Choose Platter Up and you’ll find that the presentation exceeds your expectations. Our sweet and fruit platters are perfect for this type of celebration. 

Value for Money

Valentine’s Day is a day for indulgence but coming so soon after Christmas, it’s still important to stay within budget. Many businesses want to treat their staff, but without splashing out to the same degree as during the festive season.

We offer a wide range of options for special events and businesses. Our caterers in London are dedicated to striking the perfect balance between quality and affordability.

Creative and Bespoke Menus

Platter Up excels in crafting bespoke menus tailored to the occasion. Whether you’re envisioning a romantic dinner for two with an indulgent sharing platter, or a lavish buffet for a larger crowd, we can deliver. 

Exceptional Attention to Detail

From heart-shaped treats to elegant table arrangements, Platter Up knows that Valentine’s Day is all about the little touches. Our caterers pay close attention to every detail, ensuring the food and presentation match the mood of your event.

We can also provide stunning finishing touches, like flowers and foliage.

Whether you need full-service catering, including waiting staff, or prefer a simple drop-off service, Platter Up offers flexibility to suit your needs. 

We’re experienced in handling everything from intimate gatherings to large-scale events, ensuring everything goes without a hitch.

I ordered a mixture of platters and grazing tables from platter up and it surpassed my expectation massively. The presentation was amazing and the taste was just as good. I would definitely recommend to anyone who needs catering for corporate or private events. I will definitely be using them again in the future.

We used PlatterUp for our recent business networking event, and it was a huge success! The food was delicious and looked stunning. A big thank you to your team for making the process so easy, especially when I had to change the delivery time. Everything was delivered right on schedule, and the whole experience was completely seamless from start to finish. Thank you!

I had the privilege of using Platter Up for a resident event in our community, which was a summer breakfast. The team arrived and set up in such a short time, the set up was so lovely and the food was even more delicious. All the residents enjoyed it and they mentioned how the fruit was so fresh and it was a lovely spread. I was so impressed with how quickly they set up despite having a shorter time due to access issues into the building and Dania stayed to help throughout the event and was very pleasant. He cleared up along the way and was generally so professional and helpful. A great company and very professional. It helps that the food is also very nice and fresh and comes just as described. I would definitely recommend booking them for an event.

We have used Platter Up for numerous company events now and it as always been above and beyond exceptional every time!! Their communication is always prompt and ordering is an easy process. The first time we ordered some Brunch Platters which had something for everyone and left everyone wanting more. We've also ordered the set up Lunch & Breakfast Tables which were set up beautifully and the whole office commented on how amazing everything was on both tables. Our last order was for their new Hot & Cold Bowls Catered event for a very important event in the office. From our very first visit from Philip I was put at ease how everything would go smoothly and be as great as we hoped. On the day, the service team were incredible and really went that extra mile to make sure everyone enjoyed the offering. They set up and broke down the service table and left everything spotless after. Special notice has to go tot he Sausage & Mash... We literally had people picking lots to see who could take the leftovers home with them!! We'll definitely be using them again for many more of our office events and look forward to working with the whole team again. Special shout out to Philip who helped us set up everything for the Hot & Cold bowl event. He made everything super easy and really went that extra mile for our little office ❤️

Chloé Collins 02/06/2025
