The future of luxury weddings in Dubai is already here. The menus are braver, the drinks more imaginative, and every detail feels carefully choreographed to reflect each couple’s story. This isn’t just another collaboration-this is the result of something bigger. In our last blog, we announced that Pinch Gourmet and Tonique Collective are proud to merge into The Art of Hosting, a fresh force in Dubai’s premium catering scene. We mix culinary art with mixology mastery to craft celebrations that are personal, expressive, and unforgettable.
A Match Made in Culinary Heaven: From Collaboration to Creation
At Pinch Gourmet, we have always believed that food should tell a story, and now, with the incomparable mixology team from Tonique Collective, that story just got even more exciting. From the first canapé to the final cocktail, everything we create is designed with you in mind. We bring a multi-sensory approach to wedding dining, where each bite and sip connect in perfect rhythm.
This powerful partnership, more than a collaboration, is a coming together of passion, creativity, and craft. Together, under the patronage of The Art of Hosting, we set standards anew for bespoke weddings in Dubai, turning each into an unforgettable experience.
Immersive Wedding Catering: Beyond the Banquet
They don’t just want food anymore; they want theatre, emotion, and connection. That’s where our combined expertise really shines. Imagine handcrafted sushi prepared in front of your guests while our mixologists shake citrus-infused martinis beside them. Picture a dessert garden where floral-inspired mocktails complement the theme of your wedding.
Every plate and pour is intentional, balanced, personalised, and beautifully in sync. With The Art of Hosting, born from Pinch Gourmet and Tonique Collective, the wedding menu becomes a story all on its own.
Perfect Pairings: Food and Drink that Tell Your Story
Now, our chefs and mixologists work together from the very first tasting, devising pairings that celebrate flavour and presentation in equal measure. Think signature canapés matched with elegant botanical cocktails, or slow-cooked mains paired with perfectly balanced spritzes.
None of these are coincidences, but rather carefully composed moments that delight your guests and reflect your personality as a couple. It’s where culinary art meets liquid craft, where your wedding dining experience becomes a performance of taste and texture.
Luxury with a purpose, sustainable, stylish, and considered.
True luxury is conscious. At Pinch Gourmet, Tonique Collective, and now The Art of Hosting, sustainability stands at the forefront of all that we do. Be it local sourcing of ingredients, minimising waste, or eco-friendly materials, we believe that responsible choices can still be refined and elegant.
You can feel confident knowing your wedding will be both breathtaking and thoughtful, a celebration that’s good for you and the planet.
Wedding Planning Simplified
One of the greatest benefits to this merger is simplicity. The Art of Hosting provides you with a single source rather than juggling separate suppliers. Whether you’re serving appetizers or after-party cocktails, the culinary and bar teams operate as one, ensuring your event flows seamlessly from start to finish.
It’s a single creative vision: one team, one plan, one unforgettable experience.
A New Era of Wedding Experiences in Dubai
More than a new name, the merger between Pinch Gourmet and Tonique Collective marks a new era of hosting. Combined as The Art of Hosting, we’re redefining luxury wedding catering through originality, emotion, and precision.
For couples who want more than a menu, who desire a moment that lasts, it all starts here. When culinary art meets liquid craft, weddings cease to be events and become stories.
