01

A cocktail reception shaped by your wishes

Canapés, verrines or small plates: the Brigade puts together a bespoke cocktail reception, combining carefully chosen produce and creative flavour pairings. To take your reception a step further, we also offer live cooking stations: plancha, hot stones or other creations imagined for the occasion. A generous, surprising cocktail reception, where the show is part of the pleasure.

A plated dinner, an experience to savour

In the venue of your choice, the Brigade writes a bespoke menu, from a simple meal to a tasting menu in several courses. We adapt our organisation to the equipment available, including in venues without a kitchen, depending on what the site allows. Each plate combines flavour, creativity and polished presentation. A food and wine pairing with our sommelier can complete the experience. The menu and the level of service are decided together, according to your tastes, your expectations and your budget.

A generous buffet, from convivial to unexpected

Cold, hot or a mix of both, your buffet is put together according to your tastes and the mood of your reception. From simple, generous dishes to the boldest creations, the Brigade designs a proposal suited to your occasion. To surprise your guests, we can also pair the buffet with original staging, decorative elements and live cooking stations. Have an idea out of the ordinary? We love a challenge and imagining new gourmet experiences with you.

How it works

From the idea to the plate

  1. 01

    Let’s talk about your project

    You get in touch, then Élodie offers you a phone call to better understand the occasion, your expectations, your wishes and your budget. This conversation lets us build a truly bespoke service.

  2. 02

    Let’s write your menu and your project

    Wistan and the team design a menu suited to your wishes and your needs. Together we refine the flavours, the style of service and the mood you are after, taking the venue into account, to create a service that suits you perfectly.

  3. 03

    Your event comes to life

    On the day, the Brigade prepares and sets up your service as agreed together: buffet, cocktail reception or plated dinner, delivered or with the team on site. From plating to any live cooking stations, every element is designed for your reception.

Depending on your wishes and your budget, your service can be completed by a front-of-house team and the guidance of a sommelier.

Do you offer delivery or a full service?

Both are possible: a delivered service, or our team on site for the set-up, the service and any live cooking stations. We decide together on the option that suits your event.

For how many guests?

From an intimate dinner to a full reception: tell us the number of guests and the Brigade brings the team it takes.

How much does event catering cost?

The price depends on the format, the menu, the number of guests, the venue and the services you want: delivery, service, staging or live cooking stations. Special creations and the resources needed to produce them are also taken into account. Each request receives a personalised quote, built around your wishes and your budget.

Can you write a bespoke menu?

Yes, each menu is designed for your occasion, according to your tastes, your dietary needs and the mood you want. Our team offers suitable creations, which we refine together so that the service suits you completely.
