Catering La Collina

This relatively streamlined presentation of La Collina’s stunning wedding menu still showcases wonderful array of traditional Umbrian flavours.

The menu includes 4 courses plus the wedding cake, as follows:

• an aperitif served around the pool
• 2 first courses per person
• 1 main course with 2 side dishes per person
• the wedding cake
• coffee or tea

The menu also includes all costs connected to renting the tables, chairs, tablecloths, napkins, glassware etc.

When the menu indicates “choice of two”, it means that each guest will be served both the selected dishes, i.e. two pasta dishes, two main courses etc.

This is a tradition at Italian weddings and, while it might initially seem extravagant, we’ve found that this type of menu always goes down well with guests!

Therefore, a menu listing appetisers, first courses, main courses with side dishes and dessert is, in effect, a 7-course meal. We think it’s a suitably lavish touch on a day that’s all about extravagant celebration.

In fact, we’d even suggest keeping this little detail from your guests until the very last minute – in our experience it’s a surprise that tends to go down very well indeed!

Vegetarians will be served an alternative to every non-vegetarian dish served to the other guests, thus enjoying the same number of courses as everyone else.

As far as relatively common allergies are concerned (e.g. wheat allergy, celiac disease, allergic to dairy products, nuts allergy), we’re keen to ensure that guests don’t miss out so our caterers will be ready to prepare all the selected dishes, avoiding any problematic ingredients. This means that all your guests, including allergy sufferers, will enjoy the same number of courses.
