Hosting an Italian-themed event can be a fun and memorable experience, especially the food! However, planning a catered event that offers authentic Italian flare may prove challenging. Here are some tips on how to plan the perfect Italian catered event that will leave your guests impressed and satisfied.
Menu Selection: The first step in planning a successful Italian catered event is selecting the right menu. Consider the preferences of your guests, any dietary restrictions, and the season when planning your menu.
Italian cuisine is known for its rich flavors and variety. Appetizers are a great way to start the meal, and traditional Italian antipasti platters can offer a variety of small bites to please every palate. Classic pasta dishes can add variety to the menu. And of course, don't forget to serve some authentic Italian desserts, like tiramisu.
The decor will set the tone for your event, therefore it's important to create an atmosphere that reflects the authentic ambiance of Italy.
Include warm lighting, rustic table settings, touches of greenery and elements from Italy's flag colors: green, white and red in linens, flowers or other decorative items for maximum authenticity.
Create the ideal setting by playing Italian music as background entertainment.
Think traditional melodies, classic opera, and modern hits - any combination will help set an enjoyable ambience and transport guests back to Italy!
Pairing the right beverages with your Italian catering menu can enhance the flavors of the food and elevate the overall experience.
Red wines pair well with meat dishes, while white wines complement lighter dishes like pasta or seafood. Italian liqueurs like limoncello or amaretto are also great options for after-dinner drinks.
If you are hosting a formal Italian event, consider having guests sit at assigned tables.
For something more casual, offer buffet-style seating areas so guests can relax and enjoy their meals.
When choosing a caterer for your Italian event, look for one that specializes in Italian cuisine like Verde Ristorante.

The cost of Italian catering can vary based on several factors, including the complexity of the menu, the number of guests, the level of service required, and whether you choose a buffet or plated dinner. We offer a range of catering packages to suit different budgets, and we're happy to provide a personalized quote based on your specific needs and preferences.
We take food allergies very seriously. When you inform us of any allergies, we take careful steps to prevent cross-contamination during preparation and service. We clearly label all dishes containing potential allergens and ensure that our serving staff is knowledgeable about the ingredients in each dish. Your guests' safety and well-being are our top priorities.
Some of our most sought-after catering dishes include classic pasta favourites like spaghetti carbonara and lasagna and regional specialties like risotto alla Milanese and ossobuco. Our wood-fired pizzas are always a hit, and our antipasto platters, featuring cured meats, cheeses, and marinated vegetables, are a delightful way to start any meal. For dessert, tiramisu and cannoli are perennial favourites.
