How We Work: Our Process for Luxury Catering & Private Chef Experiences
At Relicario, every event begins with a clear, thoughtful process.
We combine strategic event planning, culinary experience design, and flawless execution to create bespoke private dining and catering experiences for weddings, corporate events, and private celebrations in Mexico.
Our structured approach allows our clients to feel confident, supported, and fully present on the day of their event—while we take care of every culinary and operational detail.
Step 1: The Culinary Experience Discovery Quiz
Every successful culinary experience starts with understanding your vision.
After you contact us, we invite you to complete our Culinary Experience Quiz. This questionnaire allows us to learn about your event goals, guest profile, dietary preferences, style expectations, venue details, and overall atmosphere you wish to create.
Even when clients already know us, every event is unique. This step ensures that our private chef services and catering proposal are tailored specifically to your celebration, whether it’s a luxury wedding, a corporate event, or an intimate private dinner.
Step 2: Strategic Planning Meeting
Our first meeting is always a virtual consultation.
During this call, you will meet our executive team and discuss your event in detail. If you are working with a wedding planner or event organizer, we strongly encourage their participation to ensure alignment across all teams.
Based on your quiz responses, we will present one or several initial culinary concepts, including menu direction, service style, and guest experience flow.
This is not a final proposal yet—it is the strategic foundation of your event catering experience.
Step 3: Venue Scouting & Operational Assessment
Once we reach a defined concept, we conduct an on-site visit when necessary.
This allows us to evaluate the kitchen facilities, power supply, water access, loading areas, guest flow, service logistics, and any venue regulations.
We also define operational details such as equipment needs, staff requirements, assembly schedules, and contingency planning.
This step ensures that your catering service is executed seamlessly, regardless of venue complexity.
Step 4: Menu Tasting & Culinary Refinement
Every event includes a menu tasting.
Once your menu direction is defined, we invite you to a private tasting session where you can experience the flavors, textures, and presentations firsthand.
This step allows you to request adjustments, explore pairings, and finalize every detail with confidence.
Our goal is not only to serve exceptional food, but to design a culinary narrative that aligns with your event’s atmosphere and emotional tone.
Step 5: Event Day Execution
On the day of your event, your only responsibility is to enjoy your guests.
Our team manages all culinary logistics, food preparation, service timing, staff coordination, and cleanup.
We operate discreetly and professionally, ensuring a smooth service flow and impeccable guest experience.
Whether it is a luxury wedding, a corporate retreat, or a private celebration, we deliver a refined, stress-free catering experience from start to finish.
A Thoughtful Process Designed for Exceptional Events
At Relicario, we don’t approach catering as a standalone service.
We design complete culinary experiences where food, service, timing, and atmosphere work together to create meaningful moments.
Our process has been refined through years of experience in luxury hospitality, private residences, and destination events.
Whether you are planning a wedding, a corporate retreat, or a private celebration in Mexico, our role is to guide you through every step with clarity, professionalism, and care.
