Whether you’re dreaming of an elaborate seated dinner, a trendy food-sharing concept, or a lively food truck with wood-fired pizzas, Italian catering always delivers atmosphere, quality, and flavour. It’s the perfect blend of romance, elegance, and relaxed enjoyment.

The flavours of an Italian wedding celebration

An Italian wedding menu reads like a culinary love letter. Start with refined antipasti: bruschetta, vitello tonnato, burrata with tomato, or top-quality charcuterie. Next come the primi, such as fresh pasta or risottos, followed by the secondi — meat, fish, or vegetarian — served at the table. And then… the dolci. Tiramisu, panna cotta, cannoli, or freshly churned Italian gelato make a sweet ending to your celebration.

Italian catering formats

• Italian catering is also perfectly suited to creative presentations. Think food sharing at long tables, where platters are passed around and everyone gets to taste, live cooking where pasta or pizza is prepared on the spot, and aperitivo bars with prosecco, spritz, and Italian bites. Gelato stations and dessert tables are often a festive highlight too. Italian cuisine is fresh, pure, and versatile, and it suits every type of wedding.

  

  Our favourite Italian food trucks

  Amici del Forno

  Amici del Forno brings a slice of authentic Italy to your wedding celebration with their artisanal wood-fired oven and atmospheric food truck. From freshly baked pizzas with artisan dough to flavourful aperitivo bites, fresh salads, and delicious desserts: every dish is prepared with passion and served with a warm smile. With capacity for groups of 50 to 500 guests and up to 200 pizzas per hour, they ensure smooth service and a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. They’re also happy to think along for special dietary requirements or allergies. Based in Sint-Niklaas, they travel all over Belgium to treat your guests to la dolce vita on a plate.

  

  Dolcetto

  Dolcetto serves artisanal, authentic pizzas straight from their mobile pizza stall, travelling across the entire Benelux. With homemade dough, fresh tomato sauce, and fresh daily ingredients, Jasper and Aksel bring the true taste of Italy to your celebration.

Dolcetto also takes all dietary requirements into account, so every guest can enjoy without worry.

  

  The Eatalian

  The Eatalian brings the flavours of Italy to your celebration with their charming food truck, from Neapolitan pizzas and creamy pastas to surprising bites and sweet classics. Start the evening, for example, with Italian risotto croquettes or mini wraps, let guests enjoy all-you-can-eat pasta or pizza, or combine both for the best of both worlds. Prefer something unique? Then there are options such as pasta with mini burgers or an individual pizza per guest. And because no Italian party is complete without dessert, The Eatalian finishes with treats like tartufo, tiramisù, chocolate mousse, or panna cotta. Their motto, Dolce Far Niente — blissful doing nothing — means they take care of everything, so you only have to enjoy. Active in East Flanders, Antwerp, Brussels, Limburg, and Flemish Brabant, they bring a cosy festival vibe to your celebration with one or more food trucks.
