The sweetest touch on your
Special Day
Luxury Wedding Day Artisan Ice Cream:
Gelato Trike Cart Hire in Devon and the South West
Make your special day unforgettable with a dessert experience that gets everyone talking.
At The Local Scoop, we bring the joy of handcrafted, artisan ice cream directly to your wedding reception.
Based in Dawlish, we proudly serve couples across Exeter, Torbay, Plymouth, and the wider South Devon region.

Why Choose The Local Scoop?
Forget generic catering. We offer a fully bespoke service tailored to your love story. Whether you are planning a rustic barn wedding in the rolling Devon countryside or a chic seaside reception, we are fully equipped to serve you.
-
Flexible Power Options: While we recommend access to a standard 13amp socket to keep our gelato at the perfect scooping temperature, we understand that some of the most beautiful Devon locations are off-grid. We can provide a specialist battery power pack upon request, allowing us to serve in marquees, woodlands, or gardens where power is limited.
-
Bespoke Flavours: From our "Scoop Essentials" crowd-pleasers to your own signature "Mr & Mrs" creation, we churn custom batches just for you.
- Unlimited Service (1.5 Hours): We provide a generous 1.5-hour service window. This allows ample time for all your guests to enjoy unlimited scoops, even if your speeches run a little over!
