Exceptional gastronomy, entirely bespoke, for the most beautiful day of your life

Wedding catering that tells your story

Planning your wedding and looking for a wedding caterer on the Bay of Arcachon or in Bordeaux who can turn your meal into a moment your guests will still talk about in ten years? I am Adam Brunet, private chef, and I design weddings the way a great house composes a menu: around you.

No set packages, no standardised menus. Every wedding I create begins with a meeting, around a table, where we talk about you: your memories, your travels, the dishes that shaped your story. From that material I craft a unique menu, served only once — yours.

Whatever your ceremony — grand or intimate — your theme — classic, vintage, countryside — and your venue — château, wine estate, villa or beach — I adapt and help you create an unforgettable reception, from 30 to 300 guests.

“Because your love is unique, your menu should be too.”

From cocktail hour to next-day brunch

We can imagine everything together — and combine it all

Cocktail hour

Generous and refined canapés to welcome your guests and set the tone for the evening.

Seated dinner

Gastronomic French table service: plates dressed as in a fine restaurant, at the heart of your reception.

Cocktail dinner

Convivial and elegant: a procession of creative bites that keeps guests and conversations flowing.

Exceptional buffet

Generous and spectacular, styled with care — far, very far, from the classic wedding buffet.

Next-day brunch

Extend the celebration the next morning with a gourmet brunch for your loved ones — without lifting a finger.

Live culinary stations

The spectacle of gastronomy, before your guests' eyes

The oyster bar

Bay of Arcachon oysters shucked to order before your guests — the perfect match for your cocktail hour, facing the water or among the vines.

Ham carved by hand

Knife-carved to order, in the purest tradition — a station that always draws a crowd.

The foie gras station

Homemade foie gras prepared and plated live with its condiments — the elegance of South-West France in its purest form.

And many more: matured cheese bar, dessert stations, tableside plating… Let's compose the spectacle of your evening together.

Chef Adam by your side, from first conversation to last service

Choosing serenity means entrusting your wedding meal to a chef who will be personally present on the day. I do not delegate your wedding: I cook it, plate it and bring it to life with my brigade and service team.

“Meticulous by nature, I will fine-tune every detail for you, so this day of love and culinary discovery is a complete success.”

My cuisine is French, rooted in the South-West and revisited with creativity: noble, fresh, seasonal produce sourced from Bay of Arcachon and Bordeaux-area growers. You handle none of the preparations — you savour the moment, your guests feast, and the kitchen is left immaculate.

I also cater the other great moments of your life: engagements, elopements, hen and stag parties, wedding anniversaries…

How we will work together

1

The meeting

We talk about your story, your wishes, your venue and your budget. You tell me about yourselves — I listen, advise and propose.

2

Creating the menu

I compose your bespoke menu and we refine it together until it is perfectly you — your guests' diets and allergies included.

3

The big day

My brigade and I take over the kitchens. You live your day; we orchestrate the meal, the service and the stations, down to the last coffee.

In the kitchens of the Bay's finest venues

Reception halls, châteaux and villas where my brigade feels at home

Le Tir au Vol

Arcachon

Arcachon's grand address for receptions, steps from the Bay. A venue I know by heart, from the kitchens to the hall.

Château Mader

Gujan-Mestras

The charm of a château at the heart of the Bay, between parkland and old stone — a setting made for grand tables.

Villa La Tosca

Lanton — Bay of Arcachon

An exceptional waterfront villa facing the Bay — the dream setting for a refined wedding by the water.

And many more: private villas, wine estates, beaches of the Bay… Your venue isn't listed? I adapt anywhere — Bay of Arcachon, Bordeaux and the greater South-West.

Your wedding catering questions

How far in advance should we book?
Ideally 6 to 12 months before your wedding date, especially for high season (May to September). That gives us time to meet, create your bespoke menu and refine every detail calmly. For a closer date, contact me: depending on the calendar, anything remains possible.
Which areas do you cover?
The whole Bay of Arcachon — Arcachon, Pyla-sur-Mer, Cap Ferret, La Teste-de-Buch, Lège-Cap-Ferret —, Bordeaux, the wine estates and the wider South-West of France. Château, wine estate, private villa or beach: I adapt to your venue.
For how many guests do you cater weddings?
From 30 to 300 guests, with a kitchen and service team sized to your reception. Whatever the format, every plate is crafted with the same care.
Can the menu be adapted to diets and allergies?
Of course. Vegetarian, gluten-free, allergies, specific diets or children's menus: everything is planned from the moment your menu is created, so every guest enjoys the same gastronomic experience, without compromise.
What does your service include?
Creating your bespoke menu with you, fresh seasonal produce sourced locally, the kitchen brigade and service team, live culinary stations if you wish, and my personal presence throughout your reception. Tableware and equipment can be provided through my rental partners at preferential rates.
