A Wedding Anniversary Dinner That Honors Every Year Together
Decades together deserve more than a restaurant reservation. A myChef personal chef prepares an intimate anniversary dinner in your own home — even recreating the menu from your wedding day — while you focus on each other.
Why an Anniversary Belongs at Home, Not in a Restaurant
A milestone anniversary in a busy restaurant means shared noise, a rushed table turnover, and a menu written for everyone. For bodas de prata, bodas de ouro, or any year worth marking, couples want the opposite: privacy, meaning, and a meal that tells their story. A personal chef delivers exactly that — a table set in the home you built together, with no strangers at the next table.
The detail no restaurant can offer: your chef can recreate or reinterpret the menu from your wedding day. Bring a photo of the old reception menu, a memory of the dish you both loved, or simply the story of how you met — the chef turns it into courses. Many couples pair it with the same sparkling wine they toasted with, now served at their own dining table.
It works just as well for the whole family. When children and grandchildren gather to honor their parents' 25th or 50th anniversary, the chef scales the same care to a family-style celebration for up to 20 guests — so nobody spends the party in the kitchen, least of all the couple being celebrated.

What's Included
A Menu Built Around Your History
The chef designs each course around your story — wedding dishes, first-date restaurants, honeymoon flavors — not a generic romantic template.
Grocery Shopping & Fresh Ingredients
All ingredients are sourced and purchased by the chef on the day. You buy nothing and prep nothing.
On-Site Cooking & Plated Service
Courses are cooked in your kitchen and served restaurant-style, paced for a long, unhurried evening.
Surprise Coordination
Planning a surprise for your spouse? The chef coordinates arrival times, secret menu details, and even a hidden dessert message with you beforehand.
Anniversary Dessert
A special plated dessert — or a reinterpretation of your wedding cake — is part of the experience.
Complete Kitchen Cleanup
After the last course, the chef cleans everything and slips out quietly, leaving the rest of the night to you.
Flowers, Candles & Table Decor
Decoration is not part of the standard service, though many chefs can recommend local florists and help you plan the table setting.
Sommelier & Wine Bottles
Wine is not included, but your chef will suggest pairings for each course so you can buy the right bottles in advance.
Anniversaries We've Been Part Of
"For their bodas de prata, Marcos wanted to surprise Lúcia by recreating the menu from their 2001 wedding in Porto Alegre — a starter of palmito, chicken galantine, and the coconut cake her aunt had baked. He sent the chef an old photo of the reception menu through the app."
The chef researched each dish and rebuilt the menu with modern technique. When the coconut cake arrived, plated with a card reading the original wedding date, Lúcia recognized it instantly and cried. Marcos says it beat every restaurant anniversary they'd ever had.
"Fernanda booked a chef for her 10th anniversary in São Paulo while her husband thought they were staying in for delivery. The chef arrived while he was at the gym and had the first course ready when he walked in."
A five-course French dinner unfolded in their own apartment — scallops, filet au poivre, and a crème brûlée torched at the table. Her husband still tells friends it was the best 'delivery' of his life.
"The Almeida siblings organized a bodas de ouro lunch in Belo Horizonte for their parents, with 18 family members across three generations. They needed food that honored their parents' Portuguese roots without anyone getting stuck in the kitchen."
The chef served arroz de polvo and slow-roasted lamb family-style, and the couple's grandchildren presented the bodas cake. For the first time at a family party, the 74-year-old matriarch never once stood up to serve anyone.
