Pizza Catering for Weddings in Melbourne & Mornington Peninsula
Why choose pizza for your wedding?
When planning your big day, one of the key elements is the food. You want something memorable, social, and that fits both your style and your guests. That’s where pizza catering shines — especially with a wood‑fired setup and a mobile truck. At Dodds Catering, we specialise in pizza wedding catering and here’s why it works so well:
1. It’s fun, relaxed and social
Wood‑fired pizzas served on the spot bring a warm, lively energy to your reception. Guests gather, grab a slice fresh out of the oven, mingle, and enjoy. It’s not just a meal — it’s an experience.
2. Great for a range of guest numbers
From intimate gatherings on the Mornington Peninsula to large wedding celebrations across Melbourne, pizza catering adapts — no need for formal plated meals if you prefer something more casual and interactive.
3. Rustic, warm & memorable
If your style leans into rustic, farm‑chic, outdoor or “unconventional wedding” vibes, a mobile wood‑fired pizza truck delivers on aesthetic and taste. The smell of the oven, the open fire, the communal feel — it adds atmosphere.
4. Flexibility & catering for all
With pizzas, you can easily include vegetarian, vegan or gluten‑free options. Your guests don’t have to settle for a “default” meal — everyone enjoys something they love.
What we offer at Dodds Catering
Here’s how we bring your wedding food plan to life with pizza:
Freshly made dough and high‑quality ingredients, cooked onsite in our wood‑fired ovens.
A mobile setup across Melbourne and Mornington Peninsula, meaning you’re covered whether you’re in the city or by the coast.
A range of packages (we’ll tailor based on how many guests you have, what kind of service you want — buffet style, roaming slices, etc.).
Professional service where we take care of the oven, the cooking and the food service, so you can focus on your wedding day, not the logistics.
Why Melbourne & Mornington Peninsula makes pizza‑truck weddings so special
Selecting a pizza truck for your wedding in Melbourne or on the Mornington Peninsula is more than just about the food—it’s about the setting and vibe too.
Mornington Peninsula
Imagine your reception at a vineyard, barn, beachside property or garden setting on the Mornington Peninsula. A mobile wood‑fired pizza truck pulls up, the fire glows, guests wander and chat as pizzas are served fresh. It blends beautifully with outdoor weddings, relaxed receptions and venues with character.
Melbourne region flexibility
Within Melbourne, you’ve got everything from city‐rooftop weddings to heritage venues, warehouse spaces, suburban function rooms. A pizza truck doesn’t need a formal kitchen; it brings its own setup and adapts. This flexibility means less stress for you.
Trending catering choice
Mobile wood‑fired pizza catering is becoming increasingly popular in weddings because people want unique, memorable food experiences — not just the same plated dinner. For example, Melbourne‑based mobile wood‑fired pizza caterers are seeing demand for weddings and large events.
How to plan your pizza wedding catering with us
Here’s a simple guide to making the most of your pizza catering with Dodds Catering:
Guest numbers & style – Decide how many guests you’ll have and the service style (buffet pizzas, roaming slices, pizza station, after‐party pizza).
Venue logistics – We’ll need space for the truck or setup, a flat area, power if required (we often bring our own setups). If your venue is on the Mornington Peninsula or in outer Melbourne, we’ll coordinate travel and setup timing.
Menu selection – Choose your pizza varieties. Think about dietary needs (vegan, gluten‐free) and any special flavours you’d like.
Service duration – How long do you want the pizzas served? During the main meal, during cocktail hour, as late night snack? We’ll tailor accordingly.
Extras – You might want additional grazing boards, salads, dessert pizzas, or late‑night slices as guests wind down. We can include those.
Booking & timing – Once you’re happy with the details, we’ll lock in your date with a deposit and coordinate the finer points with you and the venue.
