Catering for weddings, communions and events: menu, service and drinks

Hiring a professional catering service guarantees a complete gastronomic experience: personalised menus, impeccable table service and coordinated drinks from the appetisers through to dessert. Whether you are planning a two-hundred-person wedding, an intimate communion or a corporate event, you will find the right professional for your celebration.

Frequently asked questions about catering

How far in advance should I book catering for a wedding?

It is recommended to book catering between 6 and 12 months before the wedding to secure availability on your chosen date. For communions and corporate events, 2-3 months is usually sufficient.

Can catering be adapted for different allergies and intolerances?

Yes. Professional catering companies are required to declare the 14 major allergens and can adapt the menu for guests with allergies, intolerances or specific diets (coeliac, vegan, dairy-free). Always mention this when requesting your quote.

What is the difference between catering and a banquet?

Catering brings the food and staff to your chosen venue (estate, garden, private space). A banquet takes place in the restaurant or hall's own premises. With catering you have more freedom to choose the location and personalise every detail of the celebration.

Does catering include table decoration?

It depends on the provider. Some include basic linen and simple centrepieces in the price. For more elaborate or personalised decoration it is usually necessary to hire a decorator separately or choose a premium package that includes it.
