Quality food and service

I can't recommend Laur and his team enough. They have gone above and beyond for us. For the menu tasting, they travelled all the way over to us to cook us beautiful dishes. It was a wonderful date night and my husband and I had an amazing time. Then on the wedding day, they provided amazing food and service. Our guests were so impressed with the menu and the food.

Exceptional food and service by Luca’s Events !

Laur, Dani, and the rest of the team at Luca’s Events were amazing and we would not hesitate in recommending them to anyone ! Laur and Dani were incredibly personable, kind, and accommodating of all requests and we loved hearing about how they started their business and made it what it is today. They are two people who love what they do and this is so clear when you see and taste their food! The food and service on our wedding day on 18.05.24 by the Luca’s Events team was exceptional. The reception drink and canapés flowed so seamlessly into the wedding breakfast and we had endless compliments from our guests about how fantastic the food and service was. We hope to cross paths with Laur and Dani again in the future and wish you both every success in your business ! Thank you for making our day so special. Hugh and Amelia x

Incredible food with extraordinary service

Luca's Events provided the catering for our wedding in June 2022 and what can I saw but WOW! They were absolutely fantastic and I can't recommend them enough. Laur and his team (including the wonderful Dani) were excellent from initial contact through to event follow up - they were friendly, communicative, passionate about great food, generous (in both spirit and portion sizes), reassuring and overall super talented both in terms of food and service.
Laur went above and beyond to ensure the food was exceptional - it was truly delicious, and even our most foodie friends were super impressed. I would hire Laur and his team again in a heartbeat - and am already trying to think up the next excuse to get them back in. Thankyou Laur, Dani, and your lovely team!

The best we could have had

Laur - I just wanted to say the biggest thank you to you for all of your help and support with our wedding! You were so helpful and patient with all of my million and one questions and made the whole wedding planning process so easy. It was so easy for us to put our trust in you in setting up the best day of our lives so far... everything was honestly perfect....we couldn't have asked for more!
So we both just wanted to say thank you for helping us start our married life in the most perfect way! We are hoping to organise a small party for our first anniversary so it would be amazing to try your amazing food again! Lots of love, Tanya

Outstanding on all accounts

After a glowing recommendation from our friends in Chester, we booked Luca's Events for our engagement party this year in August... something we certainly didn’t regret.
Laur was fantastic to deal with, made everything extremely simple to arrange, especially as we had to navigate around the changing Covid restrictions. He is the type of person who always says "yes", and very quickly after speaking to him we knew we were in the best hands possible and he genuinely cared about us as people.
We had an initial idea of the type of food we wanted, but after a quick chat with the team, it was obvious that we could let them guide us and we would be happy. We opted for a sharing starter board, their "best of British", a lamb main course and another sharing of homemade cheesecakes for dessert.
The food was unreal, really unique, fantastic flavours and served on really nice dishes. Literally cannot fault a single course. Every single one of our guests were raving about their food. We have already booked them again for a bigger garden party next summer - and we cannot wait. Asides from the food, the team were great to have around. Great with the guests, weren’t overbearing at all and all with good humour. Can assure you that you won’t be disappointed with any part of the Luca's Events interaction.

Phenomenal Service for a short notice event.

Laur and the Luca's Events team were just incredible for arranging the catering for our wedding. They managed this with just a couple of month's notice. They took into account our (and our guests) tastes and put together a broad and exciting menu. The food was absolutely exceptional - we had so many comments on how high quality it was. The roast beef especially was memorably good. Thank you so so much to the team for your hard work. I would highly recommend Luca's Events without hesitation and would definitely use them again for any event. Just brilliant - a really personal service.

Brilliant food, brilliant team!

We cannot recommend Laur, Dani and the team at Luca's events highly enough. The food was amazing and their approach to the wedding breakfast really helped make our wedding such the perfect day it was. They are the consumate professionals starting from the wedding tasting - Laur took the time to really get our thoughts and feedback on what was important to us - this private dining experience really gave us the confidence we were in safe hands for the big day, which was very helpful in the inevitable manic build up to the big day! Alongside delicous food, there were so many small bespoke things which they delivered with effortless ease from tailoring our sharing starters to accommodating our large number of gluten free guests and many more which . All our guests were raving about the food and everyone was stuffed and ate too much because the food was so good. Thanks again so much for playing such a crucial part in our perfect day!

Fantastic catering!!!

Laur and his team were fantastic on our wedding day! We had guests say how amazing the food was and loved how big the portion sizes were too :) Laur was a joy to work with leading up to our wedding. He answered all my questions in a timely manner and made us completely at ease that he had everything covered. We cannot thank him and his team enough for being so great and would recommend them to anyone!!!!!

Amazing food

Laur and his team recently catered my wedding and I can’t praise them enough. Our reception was in a marquee in the garden at my mother’s house in Oxford. Dani and her team laid all the tables and made everything look beautiful. The kitchen was set up in the garage and I can’t believe that such amazing food was prepared there! Every single course was absolutely delicious and we had so many compliments. The portions were also incredibly generous, which is often not the case at weddings and all of our guests were full and very happy.

The service was just outstanding, especially considering that we had over 130 guests on the day. Dani is so good at her job, she was such a calm, solid presence to have there and was so in control (despite being in a venue she’d never seen before!). Within 5 minutes of the reception I felt totally confident, as everything was so well organised and in control. I had thought being a garden wedding we’d have to do a bit more ourselves, but straightaway it was very clear that these guys know what they’re doing. It was all just so smoothly run and I genuinely can’t think of anything they could have done to improve it. I really can’t recommend them enough.

Thank you so much ☺️

Such an incredible catering team.
For us food was a huge priority, as both I and Daniel are real foodies and wanted to really impress our friends and family - and impressive they were!…
They were slick and professional both before and on the day. The food was incredible, so many guests commented how good it was and that was always very important to us. A great selection of choices on their menu plans to tailor to what you want, Laur was very happy to accommodate some of our preferred canapés, different to the menu. The things that impressed us the most were how easy to contact and how responsive they are, and how passionate they are about the success of our wedding day.
Thank you so much for helping us have the absolute best day! Chloe, Daniel and Sarah xx

We had the best time

Luca’s Events did our wedding at Camlad in April and oh my goodness how amazing! Staff were all so attentive and polite and the food was just amazing. People have said it is the best food they've ever had at a wedding.
We were so lucky to find them, especially after our initial caterer closed the business and we were “back against the wall” with only five weeks to the wedding date.
They were really accommodating with any requests and followed dietary requirements perfectly. We are so glad that you catered our wedding and wish we could eat it all again! Thank you for the smooth running of the day!

Amazing!!!

Luca’s Catering were the caterers for our wedding in August, they were absolutely amazing! In the run up to the wedding they were quick to respond to any queries we had and helped offer suggestions if there was anything we were unsure on. The food on the menu tasting was to die for, as was the food on the day. On the day itself the team were fantastic, they ensured everything ran smoothly and Marian, our Event Manager, checked in regularly with us to make sure we had everything we needed. The canapés and food they provided was delicious. We would definitely recommend them!
