What We Do

Togather started life in 2017 as Feast It, a platform for people to book street food caterers for their birthday parties and weddings. Since then, we have become the UK’s leading event booking platform, offering access to a curated community of suppliers spanning food, drink, photographers, venues, and so much more. We have also grown from a company of 2 twenty-somethings in a flatshare to a team of over 70 dedicated and passionate event experts who, together with our algorithm-led technology, are on hand to match ideas and visions with the best people to bring them to life. In short, we remove the stress from event planning, allowing our customers to bring their visions to life and give their guests and colleagues memories they will never forget. In 2023, Feast It rebranded with a brand new name and look, one that better fits who we are and where we’re going: Togather.
