Booked for Hen party

We could not fault Luca's Events! From communication in the lead up to the event to service on the night, Laur & Dani were amazing. We had Luca's Events come to our Air B&B for a hen do in Bath and were completely blown away by the starter & paella - there was so much food they even wrapped it all up for us to have later on that evening. The service throughout the evening was perfect, meaning we could all relax and enjoy ourselves. I couldn't recommend them enough. Great team, thank you!

Booked for Birthday party

I was a bit nervous about hiring a private chef as it wasn't something I had done before. I chose someone who was local to the area & it transpired that I had dined at restaurants where he had worked & I had been happy with the food & service. Meeting James & his wife Natasha made me feel comfortable - James was very knowledgeable about his food & suppliers & we sorted out a menu. The occasion was a surprise birthday lunch for my husband & there were 8 of us. James & assistant arrived when expected to set up & were very professional but friendly & engaging. The event exceeded expectations. The food was beautifully presented & the flavours were delicious. The kitchen was cleared down after service & James left us with a fabulous cheeseboard to finish. I would not hesitate to recommend James and the company and I will be sure to use his services again in the future.
