You can bring your own caterer, DJ and brewer to La Ferme de l'Arsouille1. Your caterer comes to Temploux, part of the city of Namur2, to cook for up to 250 guests sitting down, or 400 standing3. The cooking is done on site, in our professional kitchen4.

We do not impose a caterer

You are under no obligation to use one of our partners1. A company based in Brussels can bring along the caterer it already uses for its receptions. That caterer drives 59 km from Brussels-Central station to the farm, in 58 minutes without traffic5. A couple planning a wedding in Belgium with family from abroad can hire a caterer who cooks the dishes those guests grew up with.

Four partner caterers and a discount on the hire

If you have no caterer in mind, you can choose one of our four partners1. The four partners are:

  • Sébastien Pyck, in Eghezée, caters for banquets, cooks a daily menu and hires out tableware6.
  • Epikur, in Marchin, is an event caterer6.
  • La Boutique Concept is a Liège caterer that cooks Mediterranean food, and its chef travels anywhere in Belgium6.
  • Le Plaisir de Recevoir, in Luttre, provides catering, hires out tableware and organises events6.

When one of them serves the meal in the room, we take a discount off the hire price, deducted from the final invoice1. A delivery, or an order you collect yourself, does not count1. Le Plaisir de Recevoir also lists the farm among its partner venues7.

Buffet, set menu or spit-roast pig

Between them, our partners serve a hot or cold buffet, a multi-course set menu, a spit-roast pig or a bespoke service8. These are the caterers' own offers, not the farm's, so you settle the menu with the caterer you hire.

The kitchen your caterer works in

With the hire comes access to our large professional kitchen, where your caterer finds cookers, fridges, a freezer and a cold room4. Only one event takes place at the farm on any given date9, so no other caterer works in the kitchen that day.

Tableware for 200 guests, as an option

If your caterer does not bring its own tableware, ours is available as an option, for 200 guests10. Our floor plan shows a tableware store at the far end of the ground floor, beside a back kitchen11.

If you have more than 200 guests, two of our partners also hire out tableware: Sébastien Pyck and Le Plaisir de Recevoir6.
