Catering Service

Our Spanish chef, Alberto Martín, creates exclusive gourmet experiences for each couple, so there aren't two menus alike. Every couple deserves to tell their own story, traditions, and likings through every aspect of their wedding day, including one of the most important parts for everyone: the food. Meet with him in person or online and start one of the most enjoyable wedding planning processes. He has been recently awarded the best chef of 2022 by the Cofradía Buena Mesa de la Mar in Asturias, Spain, the antechamber of a MICHELIN STAR. Among his many international awards is L'academia della Cucina Italiana as well. Let's get creative and see how far your wedding stories can travel, thanks to the culinary encounters you and your guests will have.
