Why Mediterranean Cuisine is Perfect for Weddings
Mediterranean cuisine is widely beloved—and for good reason. It’s flavorful, colorful, healthy, and versatile. At Troy Mediterranean Cuisine, we create wedding menus inspired by the time-honored dishes of countries like Lebanon, Greece, Turkey, and Syria, using traditional recipes and fresh, high-quality ingredients. This style of food lends itself beautifully to weddings, combining elegance with approachability and satisfying a wide range of guest preferences.
Popular menu options include tender grilled lamb and chicken kabobs, savory falafel, creamy hummus with olive oil and sumac, crispy spanakopita, stuffed grape leaves (dolmas), and our ever-popular baklava layered with honey and pistachios. These dishes offer something for everyone—from meat lovers to vegetarians, from spice seekers to those with milder palates.
In addition to its irresistible flavors, Mediterranean food adds a visual element that enhances your wedding décor. Our spreads are colorful and artfully arranged, blending seamlessly with floral centerpieces, candlelight, and photo backdrops.

On-Site Cooking: A Wedding Highlight
Few things excite guests more than watching skilled chefs prepare their meal in real-time. Our on-site cooking service allows us to grill items like lamb and chicken kabobs right at the venue, ensuring the food is hot, fresh, and infused with flavor. This live cooking setup adds theater to your wedding, engaging guests and creating a multisensory moment that’s perfect for photography and video.
The sizzling sound of skewers hitting the grill, the aroma of garlic, herbs, and olive oil wafting through the air—it’s an experience that delights as much as it nourishes. Whether you’re holding your event at a vineyard, private estate, or banquet hall, on-site cooking adds personality and flair to your wedding day.

No two weddings are alike. That’s why we offer fully customizable catering packages designed to meet your unique needs.

We also accommodate a wide variety of dietary needs. Many of our dishes are naturally vegetarian or gluten-free, and we offer certified halal preparations. This flexibility makes our Mediterranean menu ideal for multicultural and interfaith weddings in the St. Louis area.
Menu customization goes beyond food. We can adjust portion sizes, recommend serving formats, and adapt presentation elements to match your event’s theme and décor. From rustic to refined, we provide a cohesive culinary experience that blends beautifully into your celebration.

FAQs
Do you offer tastings before we book?
Yes, we absolutely do. We understand how important it is to feel confident about your wedding menu, and a tasting is a great way to get to know our food and style. Tastings can be scheduled at our location or through a private tasting event. During the session, you’ll be able to sample a variety of our most popular menu items and discuss your preferences and ideas with our team. This helps us refine your menu and ensures you’re happy with the selections before the big day.
Can you accommodate halal, vegetarian, or gluten-free guests?
Yes, we specialize in dietary accommodations and are proud to offer a wide range of options. Many of our menu items are naturally vegetarian or gluten-free, and we prepare halal meats upon request. Whether you need a fully vegetarian buffet or just a few gluten-free plated meals for specific guests, we’re happy to customize our service to meet your needs. We believe every guest should enjoy a delicious meal, regardless of dietary restrictions.
How far in advance should we book your wedding catering?
To ensure availability, we recommend booking at least 3 to 6 months in advance. Spring and fall are especially busy in the St. Louis wedding season, and our calendar fills quickly during these times. However, we understand that sometimes plans come together quickly, and we do our best to accommodate last-minute requests based on availability. If your wedding is coming up soon, don’t hesitate to reach out—we’ll do everything we can to make it work.
Do you handle setup and cleanup?
Yes, our full-service catering includes both setup and cleanup. We coordinate closely with your venue to make sure everything is in place well before guests arrive and that all food service areas are cleaned and cleared after the event. Our team arrives early, sets up food stations or plated service equipment, and manages everything until teardown is complete. You won’t have to worry about a thing—we handle the logistics so you can focus on your celebration.
Can you cook food on-site at our venue?
Yes, we offer on-site cooking for select menu items, and it’s one of the features that sets us apart from traditional drop-off caterers. When we cook on-site, our chefs bring professional equipment to grill kabobs, warm dishes, or finish preparations right at your venue. This ensures the food is as fresh as possible and allows guests to enjoy the enticing aromas and visual appeal of live cooking. It also adds a unique and interactive element that guests love. Just be sure to check with your venue to ensure they allow on-site cooking, and we’ll handle the rest.
