Unique & Trending Catering Concepts Are Elevating Indian Weddings
Wedding Planning - May 8, 2025
From gourmet storytelling to interactive nostalgia, these brands are transforming wedding dining into memorable experiences. Meals today are crafted to delight every sense, leaving guests with lasting memories of the celebration.
From flavour-forward grazing tables to whimsical dessert carts, catering has evolved into an art form at modern weddings. Couples are seeking out unique, immersive experiences that not only satisfy the palate but also engage and entertain their guests.
For those dreaming of an elegant dessert moment, Coppetto brings artisanal gelato into the spotlight. At Viraj Ghelani’s wedding, their pastel-toned cart offered six luxurious flavours, from rich Sicilian Pistachio to refreshing Raspberry Sorbet, charming guests with both taste and presentation. Perfect for sunlit brunches or twilight receptions, a bespoke gelato bar promises to be a refreshing and memorable addition.
Blending heritage with haute cuisine, Raksha Hospitality crafts culinary experiences that celebrate India’s rich traditions through a contemporary lens. Their signature concept, The Raksha Accent brings together progressive Indian flavours and world-class techniques, creating a dining journey that is as emotional as it is exquisite. For couples seeking a soulful yet sophisticated feast, Raksha Hospitality offers a seamless balance of nostalgia and innovation.
For a playful spin on nostalgia, The Gourmet Kitchen & Studio presents the Chaat Grazing Table. Seen recently at Victoria South, Mumbai, this lively setup reimagines Indian street food into an interactive format. Guests build their own chaats at DIY stations, sip pani puri shots from pipettes, and indulge in beautifully styled bhel jars. Combining familiar flavours with modern styling, it’s a perfect choice for couples looking to add vibrance and conversation to their celebrations.
Communal dining takes centre stage with Food Square, known for their masterfully curated grazing tables. From Italian antipasti spreads to Asian fusion bites, every table is an invitation to explore global flavours at leisure. Interactive elements like fondue stations, DIY bruschetta bars, and vegan or keto-friendly options ensure there’s something for every guest. With seasonal themes and customisable menus, Food Square brings a sense of abundance and joy to the table.
And then there’s Soulinaire, a luxury catering outfit by the Indian Hotels Company (IHCL), which brings restaurant-level polish to weddings and socials. Drawing from decades of culinary legacy, they reinterpret signatures from their marquee restaurants into menus that feel both familiar and finely tuned. At a recent do at Nevaeh, the setup included teppanyaki counters, Mediterranean spreads, and a dessert conveyor belt that felt part meal, part installation. It was indulgent without being flashy, executed with the kind of quiet precision that doesn’t need to announce itself.
Those looking to create a magical, childlike wonder at their wedding will love Molly Moo Ice Creams and their Magical Scoopland concept. Merging carnival nostalgia with gourmet treats, they offer playful options like Chilli Guava Masala Pops, boozy Liquor Pops, mini gelato cones, and handcrafted ice cream sandwiches. Their vibrant setups transform dessert into theatre, creating pockets of fun that delight guests of every age.
When it comes to sweet parting gifts, Kesar Sweets reinvents tradition with Mithai Mela. Guests curate their own personalised mithai boxes, choosing from a lavish spread of classic and contemporary sweets. It adds an interactive element to gifting and ensures that every guest leaves with a customised token of the celebration.
And for destination weddings, Aarti’s Kitchen brings a thoughtful twist with their Make Your Own Hamper experience. Perfectly suited for guests arriving at different times, the concept lets them assemble their own hampers with house-made snacks like Jalapeno Cheese Puffs, Gulkand Chikki Shots, and Fusion Aam Papad Chocolate Bites. Warm, personal, and filled with surprises, it adds an extra layer of hospitality to the festivities.
Today, food at weddings is no longer just about satisfying hunger. It is about evoking emotion, sparking conversations, and creating unforgettable shared experiences. With these innovative concepts leading the way, the culinary landscape of Indian weddings has never looked — or tasted — better.
