The Food Your Guests Will Talk About
You have chosen Italy for your wedding. Now choose the food. Our destination wedding catering in Italy brings chef Lucia d’Aloisio Mayo and the Cookinart team to your venue: a villa in Tuscany, a garden in Rome, a terrace on the Amalfi Coast, a house on Lake Como. Italian cooking made with the best local ingredients, served the way Italians celebrate.
From an intimate elopement dinner to a reception with family and friends, we design the menu with you, taste it together, and take care of the cooking and the service on the day, in coordination with your planner and your venue.
Everything is arranged in English, from the first email to the last toast. We also cook the days around the wedding, as your private chef in the villa.

How Much Does Destination Wedding Catering in Italy Cost?
There is no single Italian destination wedding cost: every wedding is different, and so is its catering. The price depends mainly on the number of guests, the format of the meal (a seated dinner costs more than a buffet), the number of courses and the ingredients, the location and the travel it requires, the season and the service staff needed on the day.
This is why we do not sell fixed destination wedding Italy packages. Tell us about your wedding and we will send you a tailored proposal, with a clear breakdown of what is included.

Destination Wedding Catering in Italy: FAQ
Do you offer destination wedding Italy packages?
Not fixed ones. Every proposal is tailored to your wedding, so you pay for what you actually want, with a clear breakdown of what is included.
Can we taste the menu before the wedding?
Yes. We arrange a tasting of the menu, ideally during a planning trip to Italy, so you can choose your dishes with confidence.
Do you work with wedding planners?
Yes. We are used to working alongside planners and venues, and we are happy to be contacted by them directly.
Can you cater for dietary requirements?
Yes. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and other needs are built into the menu, so every guest is looked after.
Can you also cook for the days before and after?
Yes. Welcome dinners, a brunch the day after or dinners in your villa during the week: we can be your private chef for the whole stay.
How far in advance should we book?
As early as you can. Destination wedding catering in Italy is booked months ahead, especially for late spring, summer and early autumn dates.
