Use the actual market itinerary
If a market visit forms part of your celebration, check its current programme rather than assuming every market operates together. Give the caterer a meal start time and a realistic window for guests returning.

Melton Mowbray / BEFORE YOU ASK
Melton’s destination guide distinguishes the historic town-centre markets, the nearby Stockyard and the surrounding Leicestershire countryside. Choose your event base before comparing menus, then explain which parts of the day happen elsewhere and when guests return for food.
If a market visit forms part of your celebration, check its current programme rather than assuming every market operates together. Give the caterer a meal start time and a realistic window for guests returning.
The Stockyard and the town-centre market are distinct locations. If your gathering involves either, confirm the booked room or authorised serving area, who controls access, and whether outside catering is permitted there.
Melton’s food and agricultural identity may inspire your menu. Describe the dishes or flavours you would enjoy, then ask suppliers to explain their proposal and alternatives rather than assuming particular products are included.
Give the date, approximate guests, total budget, venue type and service window. Keep names, contact details, exact private addresses and named health information out of the shared brief.
