FAQ

All our banquets are all-you-can-eat so there is no limit. We also leave behind between 10 to 15 pizzas in take away boxes for the guests to enjoy at a later stage.

 

Our catering costs depends on the number of people, the menu chosen, the distance to the address, number of waitstaff required and serving times.

You can see our menu options on our website 

We cover from Byron Bay to Brisbane including the hinterland.

Yes, there is a minimum spend of $2000.

We are experienced in both set up: sit down and stand up (cocktail party style). We are prepared to cater both set ups. We do not do individual dishes, it is all to be put in the middle to share. 

We need to arrive two hours prior to serving time, have access to regular power, 3x3 flat surface and the entrance needs to be wide enough for us to manoeuvre. We bring a four-wheel-drive so we can access remote locations.

 

We have experienced and professional waitstaff which we highly recommend. 

In Sit down set up style, we requiere a waiter for every 40 people to ensure a smooth service.

We do not offer bar service although we have a few partners we trust to recommend, so please let us know if you requiere and we will let you know which one is the best available. 

It is all included in the price and we always bring it in case it is not provided by the wedding venue.

We also offer the option to hire more formal cutlery and crockery for an extra cost

We cater for Gluten Free, Dairy free, Vegetarian and Vegan. We do not offer any food for Coeliac. All dietary requirements need to be specified prior to the wedding. 

 

Unlike other wedding and corporate caterers, we do not have a time limit. We have created banquets that cover the whole event, including platters and starters that are served right after the ceremony and prevents the guests from being hungry until the mains are served.

Cutting the cake is not included in the price but we offer it for an extra cost.

A $200-dollar deposit is required to lock in the date. It is fully refundable if you allow at least 4-weeks’ notice. The rest of the payment is to be paid four weeks prior to the event.

It depends on the wedding venue and the set up that you provide. The guests do not order at the truck, our experienced waitstaff will bring the food out. We can do a sit-down dinner or a more casual stand-up cocktail party. It is always a sharing style.

We were big fans of The Italian Job food at The Collective and we hired them for our wedding. We were amazed by their service and the food variety they offer in weddings. All our guests kept talking about it for weeks! They were really easy to deal with and always kept us informed of the process. Thank you team!

They were amazing! They're a mobile pizza van, and brought servers with them as well. We had salads, gnocchi as well as some pizza that was brought around. At the end of the night we had about 15 boxes of pizza for the guests to take home and had huge reviews from all our guests about how great it was!

OMG the food is amazing! Such a great affordable price. There was plenty of food for our guest and they were fast in serving the food to our guest. There was even some left over in pizza boxes for the guest later in the night. They were very respective of the property and took all their rubbish away with them.

The food was incredible! We had roaming canapes and then a sit down service with pizza, pasta and salad. It was exactly what I was looking for and they delivered. Even a year later our guests are talking about how good the food was at our wedding. It was also really easy to manage things like dietary requirements and allergies, and genealogy the whole process of organising the menu was really smooth. Did I mention the food was delicious?!

What questions should we ask when choosing a wedding caterer?

I can't decide between a cocktail reception and sit-down dinner

Help me decide pls! I suppose I'm torn with the sit-down dinner as I don't want to create too much separation.

The Italian Job Catering

Hi lovely, we do both, sit down & cocktail style. They are both wonderful. Cocktail style is a bit more relaxed, there is more room to mingle it's a bit more social as everyone walks around and get to talk to everyone. We do walk the food around and ensure every guest gets to try every treat. I always recommend a fea seats available though, especially for the elderly. It's normally decorated with some couches & also barrels with stools. 
With the sit down set up, you get a bit of both, as cocktail hour is cocktail style (canapes) & then guests sit down for a more formal dinner. Mains normally go for 1h, and guests already start standing up as they finish eating to go grab a drink, smoke, chat with other tables, etc. So it gets a bit messy after a bit. I feel like when there is sit down dinner + sit doen speeches, people get a bit over it, unless the speeches are short (20min total). 

Again, they are two different styles and they are both magnificent and very special!

Hope this helps.

Cocktail style weddings are becoming more and more common. We do offer Grazing Tables and all our meals are shared meals. Our staff goes around with the pizzas and small gnocchi portions as well as platters, Garlic Bread, etc.
