We are marrying on an estate near Dinant and staying the whole weekend. Can you come the day after the party?

Yes, many couples choose exactly that moment. A relaxed pizza session around midday or early evening is a pleasant finish for guests who are still around. We schedule team and oven for whichever hour suits you.

How do you deal with the summer crowds in Dinant?

We leave earlier than usual and agree a fixed access route with the venue. If your estate lies outside the centre, we notice little of the tourism; in the town itself we allow for full quays and car parks.

Can you provide gluten-free pizza for a few guests?

Yes, if you ask beforehand. Gluten-free and vegan pizzas are prepared at a station kept apart, and the allergen list reaches you well before the party. Tell us how many guests are involved so we can plan it properly.

What if the garden of our estate is on a slope?

That is common in the valley. The oven needs a level area with a 2.5-metre clear access. Sometimes that is a courtyard, sometimes a terrace or lawn beside the house. Photos help us pick the best spot in advance.

Pizza catering in Dinant

Dinant lies squeezed between steep cliffs and the Meuse, with the collegiate church and the citadel as fixed landmarks. For a wedding or family weekend in the area, we deliver a wood-fired oven and Neapolitan pizza to your venue.

Guests who stay over

Couples marrying in the valley often invite guests for a whole weekend. Pizza à volonté is a relaxed choice for the arrival evening or the day after the ceremony.

Châteaux nearby

Around Dinant lie estates such as Freÿr and Vêves. Wherever you celebrate, we coordinate the setup with the manager of your venue.

A menu made for you

We choose six to ten varieties together, with vegetarian options as a constant and vegan or gluten-free pizza when you ask for it.

A city worth travelling for

Few Belgian cities are as recognisable as Dinant. The pear-shaped spire of the collegiate church of Notre-Dame stands out against the rock face, the citadel sits above, and just outside the centre the Rocher Bayard juts from the valley like a needle. It is also the birthplace of Adolphe Sax, which you notice from the saxophones in the streetscape.

Those who organise a celebration here often do so as a destination. Families rent a large holiday house or château estate nearby, around Anseremme, Hastière or the Lesse valley, and let guests stay a whole weekend. Besides the main party, a second occasion is then usually needed: the arrival evening, a lunch after the ceremony or the day after.

Pizza as a relaxed second occasion

After a formal ceremony and a seated dinner, many couples want something looser for the next day. A wood-fired oven in the estate garden is ideal. Guests wander down at their own pace, pick up a wedge of pizza and join whoever is already sitting. Nobody has to be at the table at a set hour.

It can of course work the other way round: pizza à volonté as the main course on the wedding day itself. Then we open with an extended Aperitivo during the photo session, the pizza rounds follow through dinner and we finish with tiramisu and cannoli around the cake or the first dance. One oven serves a company of up to 150 guests.

Celebrating in a tourist valley

In July and August Dinant fills with day trippers, kayakers on the Lesse and visitors to the citadel. For a private party in town or on an estate in the valley we account for that: we set off earlier, avoid the busiest hours on the quays where possible and agree a fixed place to unload.

Many venues in the valley are run in French. We speak directly with the operator about power, access and where the fire may burn. With a few photos of the garden or courtyard, we quickly see where there is level ground and how the smoke can drift away between the rocks.

Heel originele formule, toffe gasten, leuke aankleding en hele lekkere pizza's uit de mobiele houtoven. Hebben hierdoor een erg leuke avond gehad en erg tevreden gasten. Voor herhaling vatbaar ... :-)
