What makes wedding catering truly memorable?
For Grace and Billy, it was the combination of incredible food, generous portions, attentive service and a team who anticipated what guests needed before they even had to ask.
The couple celebrated their Mallorca wedding at Son Burguet on 28 May, surrounded by almost 90 friends and family members. With a Mediterranean sharing feast, cocktails in the garden, live music and dancing in the finca’s beautiful clastra, it was a celebration filled with food, energy and personality.
The experience made such an impression that several guests said they felt as though they were attending a celebrity wedding.
Grace believes that feeling came down to the professionalism, attention to detail and seamless service provided by Delicioso.
When Grace and Billy began comparing wedding caterers in Mallorca, Delicioso stood out for several reasons.
The company was competitively priced, but the couple were equally impressed by the flexibility offered when planning their menu.
“What really impressed us was how flexible they were with the menu and how willing they were to tailor everything to exactly what we wanted.”
Delicioso offers fully inclusive wedding catering packages in Mallorca, including food, drinks, staffing, service and equipment.
Couples can choose between Classic, Mediterranean Sharing and Tapas and Paella packages. These menus provide a helpful starting point, but they can also be adapted to reflect individual tastes, dietary requirements and the style of the wedding.
For destination couples, understanding exactly what is included can make it much easier to compare wedding catering proposals properly. Price is important, but so are portion sizes, drinks, staffing hours, furniture, linen, glassware, bar service and the ability to tailor the menu.
Grace and Billy felt that Delicioso offered excellent value without compromising on the quality of the food or service.
Planning a destination wedding means trusting suppliers to manage details on the island while you may be hundreds or thousands of miles away.
Grace and Billy found Delicioso organised, professional and communicative throughout the process.
Helen, Delicioso’s owner, provided a reassuring point of contact and helped make the planning feel smooth and manageable.
“Being English herself, communication was incredibly easy, and she was always on hand to answer questions and reassure us.”
Working with an English-speaking wedding caterer in Mallorca can be particularly helpful for international couples. It allows them to discuss detailed menu preferences, allergies, timings and practical arrangements clearly, without worrying about anything becoming lost in translation.
As part of their package, Grace and Billy attended a menu tasting in Mallorca.
This gave them an opportunity to try the food and meet members of the Delicioso team, including Manu, Mica and Martine, before their wedding day.
“From the moment we arrived, they made us feel completely at ease and so excited for the big day.”
A wedding menu tasting is not only about deciding whether you enjoy each dish. It is also a chance to experience the presentation, understand the style of service and talk through how the menu will work at your venue.
During a tasting, couples can discuss:
Grace and Billy’s tasting helped confirm that they had chosen the right caterer and gave them even more confidence ahead of their wedding.
After the ceremony in Son Burguet’s corral, guests moved into the garden for a 90-minute canapé and drinks reception.
The couple selected six canapés:
Alongside cava, beer, wine, juices and soft drinks, guests were served Hugo Spritz cocktails.
A generous canapé reception gives guests plenty to enjoy while the couple takes photographs. It also builds anticipation for dinner and creates a relaxed opportunity for friends and family to mingle.
For dinner, Grace and Billy chose Delicioso’s Mediterranean Sharing Wedding Package.
Large platters were delivered to each table, allowing guests to share the different dishes and try everything rather than selecting just one main course.
The feast included:
The sharing format created a sociable and relaxed dining experience. It also gave guests far more choice than they expected.
Grace explained:
“Our guests were genuinely shocked and thrilled when they realised they didn’t have to choose just one option. They could have a full portion of everything!”
For destination weddings, a Mediterranean sharing menu feels particularly appropriate. It encourages conversation, brings energy to the tables and reflects the leisurely, communal style of dining associated with Mallorca.
The amount and variety of food became one of the biggest talking points of the wedding.
“There was an incredible amount of food, with generous portions and so much variety. Absolutely nobody went hungry.”
Grace and Billy’s guest list included people with fish and peanut allergies, as well as vegan and vegetarian guests.
Alternative dishes were incorporated into the catering plan, including:
Providing detailed dietary information in advance helps a wedding caterer prepare appropriate alternatives and brief the service team before guests arrive.
Couples should ask guests about allergies and dietary requirements when collecting their RSVPs, then provide the final information alongside an accurate table plan.
This is especially important for sharing menus, where platters contain several dishes and guests need to know which options are suitable for them.
Dinner concluded with a trio of desserts:
After dessert, guests gathered for a celebratory cava tower. This marked the transition from dinner into the evening party and created another memorable photographic moment.
Small changes in location and service help give a wedding a natural sense of progression. At Grace and Billy’s celebration, guests moved from the ceremony in the corral to garden cocktails, dinner in the clastra and finally the evening party.
Each area of Son Burguet created a different atmosphere while allowing the celebration to remain within one beautiful finca setting.
The food received enormous praise, with many guests describing it as the best wedding food they had ever eaten.
However, it was the combination of food and service that made the experience exceptional.
“Our guests’ glasses were never empty, and the team seemed to anticipate what everyone needed before they even had to ask.”
Attentive service does not mean interrupting guests constantly. The best wedding teams remain aware of what is happening at every table, replenishing drinks, clearing plates and managing timings without making the service feel intrusive.
Grace described it as the best service she had ever experienced at a wedding.
Even the couple’s wedding planner, Sabinata Eventos, praised Mica and the Delicioso team for their organisation throughout the day.
Feedback from another wedding professional was especially meaningful. Wedding planners see many catering teams at work and understand how much coordination is required behind the scenes to keep a large event running smoothly.
After dinner and the cava tower, the celebration continued in the clastra with live music from Charly Hamblyn and Groove Avenue.
Guests enjoyed an open bar with wine, cava, beer, spirits and soft drinks before the party moved indoors later in the evening.
At 11pm, Delicioso served coca de trampó, a traditional Mallorcan flatbread topped with vegetables.
Late-night food is always popular with wedding guests, particularly after several hours of dancing. Choosing a local Mallorcan dish also adds another island flavour to the celebration.
Grace and Billy’s wedding demonstrates that excellent value is not simply about finding the lowest price.
True value comes from receiving generous food, flexible menu planning, experienced staff, attentive service and practical wedding essentials within one carefully organised package.
“If you’re looking for a wedding caterer that offers incredible food, outstanding service, flexibility, and fantastic value for money, look no further.”
For Grace and Billy, choosing Delicioso was one of the best decisions they made.
Whether you are dreaming of Mediterranean sharing platters, individually plated courses or a relaxed tapas and paella celebration, Delicioso can help you create a wedding menu tailored to you.
The team can provide food, drinks, bar service, staffing, furniture, linen and equipment, giving you fewer separate elements to organise.
