Wedding Caterers
Fondue and raclette appear on real wedding menus here, offered as a genuine course rather than a novelty, alongside standard plated dinners and buffets, and Ticino-based caterers lean Italian by default rather than Swiss-German. Dietary handling tends to be thorough: a mixed table of vegetarian, vegan and allergen-restricted guests is treated as routine rather than a special request, usually confirmed at the tasting rather than left until the day itself. Pricing is quoted in Swiss francs almost without exception, and a couple paying from abroad should raise deposit terms and payment method early, since wire transfer timelines and currency conversion can eat into a deadline that looked comfortable on paper.
