Italian Catering Trays for Weddings

Not every wedding reception needs a full-service caterer with a fleet of vans and a team of 20. Sometimes you just need incredible food. Ciao Italia's scratch-made Italian catering trays bring 35 years of family cooking to your wedding reception — whether it is at a rented venue, a backyard, a vacation home, or a hotel ballroom.

Lasagna for the whole guest list. Chicken parmigiana that your grandmother would approve of. Pappardelle with braised meat sauce. Fettuccine Alfredo for the kids and picky eaters. Eggplant parmigiana for the vegetarians. This is wedding food that tastes like someone's Italian family cooked it — because that is exactly what happened. The Navarra family has been cooking on I-Drive since 1991.

Simple Wedding Catering

Order Trays, Skip the Stress

Order through our online catering menu, pick up at our I-Drive restaurant between 2 and 5 PM, and set up at your venue. Half trays feed 8 to 10 guests, full trays feed 16 to 20. For a 60-person wedding, three or four full trays plus sides and salad covers everyone beautifully.

The $300 minimum is well below any typical wedding food budget. Same-day orders placed by 11 AM are ready by 5 PM, but for weddings we recommend ordering at least 48 hours in advance to ensure everything is perfect. Wine and beer are also available at our restaurant. Pickup only — no delivery.

How many trays do I need for a 50-person wedding?

For 50 guests, plan on 3 to 4 full trays covering different dishes (pasta, chicken parm, lasagna) plus a couple of salad trays. This provides variety and generous portions for everyone.
