Wedding Catering in Copenhagen: Indian Food That Makes the Day

By the Indian Bites kitchen team, Pustervig 4, Copenhagen. Reviewed for accuracy on 20 July 2026.

Wedding catering in Copenhagen should feel like a proper feast, not a compromise, and that is exactly what Indian Bites brings to the table. We cater weddings from 20 to 500 plus guests with authentic North Indian dishes prepared using spices imported directly from India, the same recipes that have earned us 200,000+ customers and a 4.7-star Google rating (634 reviews) at our Pustervig restaurant in Copenhagen city centre. Whether you want a full on-site setup with staff and serving equipment or a delivery-only arrangement for a smaller celebration, the food is built around your guest list and served warm, fragrant and ready to be the thing people remember about your day. This guide covers what we offer, what is included, and how to book.

Why Indian Food Works So Well at a Wedding

Weddings bring together guests with very different tastes and dietary needs under one roof, and North Indian cuisine is built for exactly that. A single set menu can carry a rich, slow-simmered butter chicken next to a naturally vegan channa masala without either dish feeling like an afterthought. In our own kitchen, we finish butter chicken with a last swirl of butter and cream just before it goes out, a small step that keeps the sauce glossy instead of separating over a two or three hour reception. We have also noticed that guests who claim they “don’t do spicy” almost always come back for seconds of a mild, well-balanced dal tadka, which tells us the seasoning is doing its job rather than just adding heat.

A menu guests actually talk about

Ask any couple what they remember about a wedding a year later and food usually comes up before the flowers do. Butter chicken, tandoor-style tikka and freshly baked garlic naan carry a warmth and aroma that a standard banquet rarely matches, largely because the spice blends, cumin, cardamom, fenugreek and a slow-built garam masala, are toasted and ground rather than poured from a jar.

Our Wedding Set Menus

We build a custom set menu of 3 to 8 dishes chosen from more than 15 options, served as family-style platters or individual portions. Every set menu includes naan, basmati rice, raita and chutneys as standard, so you are really just choosing the mains.

Dishes couples book most often

• Butter Chicken: creamy tomato-and-butter curry with halal-certified chicken, finished with a swirl of cream, 149 DKK on our regular menu
• Chicken Tikka Masala: tandoor-marinated chicken in a rich, lightly spiced masala sauce
• Lamb Curry: slow-simmered halal lamb in a deep, aromatic gravy that benefits from a long cook, which is why we start it early on event days
• Dal Makhani: black lentils simmered for hours with butter and cream, a vegetarian favourite that pairs well with meat dishes on a shared table
• Palak Paneer: fresh paneer in a spiced spinach gravy
• Channa Masala: chickpeas in a tangy, naturally vegan sauce
• Samosas: a warm, crisp arrival snack while guests are seated

Service Options: Delivery or Full Setup

For a smaller garden wedding or an event with its own catering staff, we prepare the full order and deliver it in insulated containers at the agreed time. For larger receptions and formal venues, we arrive with copper serving dishes, table linens and our own staff, set the spread up, keep it maintained through service, and pack down at the end. Both options cover the entire Copenhagen area and the surrounding region.

Halal Certification and Dietary Needs

Every cut of meat we use, in the restaurant and at catered weddings, comes from halal-certified suppliers. Vegetarian and vegan dishes sit on the same menu as standard, and we adjust for nut allergies or gluten-free requirements when you tell us in advance. One vendor, one kitchen, every guest covered, which matters when a wedding guest list spans grandparents, in-laws and friends with very different needs.

Booking Timeline and Pricing

Pricing is quoted per event based on guest count, number of dishes and service level, so we do not publish a flat per-person rate. What we can promise is a free, non-binding quote once you send us the date, headcount and venue. Book as soon as your date is set: private events need at least 5 to 7 business days notice, and during peak wedding season from May to September, earlier is better since weekends fill quickly. Invoice payment is available for businesses handling the booking on a couple’s behalf.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does wedding catering cost in Copenhagen?

Pricing depends on guest count, number of dishes and whether you choose delivery only or a full on-site setup with equipment and staff. We do not publish a flat per-person rate because weddings vary too widely. Every couple gets a free, non-binding quote built around their guest list and venue.

How far in advance should we book wedding catering?

We recommend booking as soon as your date and venue are confirmed. Private events need a minimum of 5 to 7 business days notice, but weddings during peak season from May to September fill up faster, so reaching out 2 to 3 months ahead gives you the best chance at your preferred date.

Is the food halal-certified?

Yes. All meat served at Indian Bites, at our restaurants and at catered weddings, is halal-certified. This applies to chicken and lamb across every set menu we offer, so mixed guest lists are covered without needing a separate vendor.

Can you cater for both small and large weddings?

Yes. Our catering scales from intimate gatherings of 20 guests to large celebrations of 500 or more. The menu, staffing and setup all adjust to your guest count, so a garden ceremony and a 300-person reception get the same level of attention.

Do you offer vegetarian and vegan wedding menus?

Yes. Every set menu includes vegetarian options such as Palak Paneer and Dal Tadka, and vegan dishes like Channa Masala. We routinely build wedding menus that mix meat, vegetarian and vegan dishes on the same table so every guest is fed properly.

What is included in a wedding catering package?

Every set menu includes naan, basmati rice, raita and chutneys alongside your chosen main dishes, served as family-style platters or individual portions. For full setup bookings we bring copper serving equipment, table linens and staff; for delivery-only bookings we hand off in insulated containers at the agreed time.
