How to choose a wedding caterer in Latvia

The table, not only portions

Wedding table, wedding catering in Riga

Wedding catering in Riga, Jurmala and across Latvia. Chefs cook on site.

Couples in Latvia often look for a wedding caterer late, once the venue is booked. Then the question is the plate. A banquet from a large company is one path. Private chefs who cook on site are another.

The first thing we ask is guest count and place. Manor, garden, home. That sets the pace. A large banquet suits food brought in warm. An intimate table suits a chef at the pan. Jumel.s works on that side. On site wedding catering is the whole form of our work, not an add on.

The second is the menu. Does it tell your day, or is it the same one that went to another couple yesterday. We write the menu to the season. Chanterelles when they are here. Fish from someone we know. Organic meat from a farmer in Lielvārde. Wild game from a hunter. Flowers from Gardi ziedi. Allergens and children's plates from the start, not as an exception.

The third is a price you see before the talk. Menus are 35, 50, 70 and 100 € per person. Weddings add 10 € per person on the menu. Chef fee 150 €. Decoration 100 € up to 15 guests, then +5 €. Wine is about 7 € per course. If there is no kitchen, a small wedding can use the food truck.

If you are looking for wedding catering in Riga or Jurmala and want to stay close to the table, start with the quote. Date, guests, place. Then the menu.
