No preset packages, no shared templates — your wedding menu starts as a blank page and gets built around your date, your venue, and the food you actually love.
From the first tasting to the last canapé, the process is transparent and collaborative.
Your wedding day carries more expectation than almost any other event you'll host. The food is remembered, discussed, and compared. Rivertnova's wedding catering process begins six to twelve months in advance with a discovery call where we learn about you — not just dietary restrictions and headcount, but tone, aesthetic, what you ate on a formative trip, what you hate at other weddings. From there, we develop a concept, propose a draft menu built around whatever Quebec's seasons will offer on your specific date, and schedule a private tasting so you can assess and redirect before anything is confirmed. Our team handles rentals coordination, dietary accommodation for every guest, service timing, and clean breakdown. You won't be chasing us down on the morning of.
What's included in wedding catering with Rivertnova
The full scope of what our wedding service covers — from planning to last call.
Private tasting session
Before you commit, you eat. We prepare a representative selection of proposed courses in our kitchen or at your venue so you can taste, adjust, and finalize with confidence. Travel to site incurred when venues are outside Québec City.
Full dietary mapping
We collect and track every guest restriction — allergies, intolerances, religious requirements, preferences — and produce alternate plates that sit at the same quality level as the main menu. No guest gets a lesser experience.
Day-of service management
Our team manages every service touch from cocktail hour through dessert and late-night bites if you want them. We coordinate with your planner and venue to keep food timing aligned with your program without you having to think about it.
Rentals coordination
Plateware, linen, glassware, chafing equipment — we work directly with rental suppliers in the Quebec region and can include coordination in your proposal so you have one fewer vendor relationship to manage.
We had nineteen guests with dietary restrictions across a hundred and forty people. Rivertnova handled every single one without making those guests feel flagged or different. That kind of attention is rare and we noticed it immediately at dinner.
