Wedding & Private Party Pizza Catering
A private event runs on a timeline, and the food has to fit inside it. This service covers weddings, rehearsal dinners, engagement parties, showers, graduations, and milestone birthdays, where courses need to land around toasts, photos, and a first dance without cooling down or stacking up a line of guests in formalwear. Our kitchen crews are led by staff with 18 years of combined experience, including Chef Marcus Roberto, a two-time World Pizza Champion (2017 and 2019).
How A Reception Usually Flows
- Cocktail hour: a stationed antipasti spread — cured meats, marinated vegetables, olives, focaccia.
- Seating: a chopped salad course delivered to tables.
- Main service: hand-stretched pizzas cut and brought to each table, refilled as long as guests want more.
- Close: a dessert pie or a late-night slice service before the final dance.
Details Worth Confirming Early
Before the date is set, we ask for the venue contact, coordinator name, load-in window, and whether the site limits open flame or trailer access. Coastal venues around Malibu and Marina del Rey often carry both fire and amplified-sound restrictions, and estate or vineyard-style venues in the hills tend to have a fixed vendor arrival time. For a backyard or private residence, the deciding factors are gate width, driveway grade, and overhead clearance. Our event-day process page walks through the full sequence, from load-in to the last pie.
Sizing The Right Amount Of Food
A seated reception eats more per guest than a standing cocktail event, simply because guests are eating steadily rather than grazing between conversations. Our per-person quantity guide covers the math for both formats and notes how adding a salad course typically trims consumption by roughly a slice per guest.
What Shapes A Wedding Quote
Guest count, number of courses, length of service, staff-to-guest ratio, coordination with your rental company, and how far we travel — especially to a canyon or far South County venue — all affect the final number. There is no set package price; quotes reflect your event size, site conditions, chosen courses, staffing, and access. The cost guide explains how estimates are built, and a call will get you a number tied to your actual date.
