A wedding menu that tastes of Marbella
I cook weddings in Marbella at hillside villas, fincas and beach clubs along the Costa del Sol, from an intimate dinner to 500 guests. You get one chef responsible for every plate, a menu written for you and a team I brief and lead.
Andalusia gives me Iberian ham and acorn-fed pork, bluefin tuna from the almadraba off Cádiz in season, Mediterranean fish and prawns, local citrus and olive oil. Sherry from Jerez and wines from Ronda pair beautifully with them.
A menu idea: Iberian ham carved for the aperitif, almadraba tuna and Andalusian citrus, finished with sherry pairings.
Season and logistics
The main wedding season in Marbella runs April to October. Many villas have strict noise and capacity rules, so I plan the kitchen setup and timings with the venue manager early. I work alongside your planner and venue so the kitchen fits into their timeline.
What I can cook for you
Canapés and aperitif
Cold and warm bites for the arrival, each one a clean single mouthful, made from local produce.
The wedding dinner
A plated tasting menu, a family-style feast, food stations, or a mix of all three.
Drinks programme
Wine and champagne pairings, a non-alcoholic pairing and a signature cocktail, designed with the menu.
Late-night food
Something warm and salty around midnight to keep the dance floor going.
Welcome and rehearsal dinners
A relaxed barbecue or fire-cooked feast to start the weekend, or an intimate tasting menu for family.
Day-after brunch
A late, generous brunch for everyone who stayed, and one last moment together.
My signature: live-fire wedding catering, a wild and foraged wedding menu, and intimate weddings and elopements.
