An Indian wedding is not one meal, it is a run of celebrations, and every one of them is built around food. If you are looking for Indian wedding catering in Melbourne that can carry you from the mehndi and sangeet through to the reception, Curry Queen Catering Co. cooks the whole wedding, with the same care we put into every plate at Masti on Brunswick Street, Fitzroy.

Our catering is led by Chef Manpreet Sekhon, the Curry Queen, and cooked by the team behind Masti, Elchi and Eastern Spice. Menus are designed with you, regional family favourites are welcome on request, and a live clay tandoor at your venue means naan and kebabs reach your guests hot.

Catering every function of your wedding

Mehndi catering

Relaxed, colourful and full of snacking. Think street-food chaat, momos and tandoori bites that guests can enjoy while the henna dries, with plenty for vegetarian family members.

Sangeet catering

A night of music and dancing needs food that keeps the energy up. Live tandoor stations and generous sharing platters keep plates moving between performances.

Reception catering

The main event. A full Indian wedding menu of curries, rice, breads and desserts, set up and served for the whole room, with every dietary need labelled.

A live clay tandoor at your venue

Nothing gets a wedding crowd talking like a live tandoor. We fire naan, tikka and kebabs in a clay oven in front of your guests, so the breads are soft and blistered and the kebabs come off the skewer smoky and hot. It turns dinner into part of the entertainment. Read more about our live tandoor catering in Melbourne.
