Book a private chef for the christening

Make the christening a festive and relaxed day with a private chef from ChefMe. Whether you are planning an elegant christening brunch, a classic Danish lunch, or a cozy afternoon reception — our chefs ensure that the food is top-notch, while you focus on the little one.

Why choose a private chef for the christening?

A christening often brings the whole family together, and it can be challenging to manage everything — decorations, guests, and food for the christening. With a private chef, you can relax and enjoy the day. The chef plans the menu, shops for ingredients, prepares everything from scratch, and cleans up afterward. You get homemade quality without any of the hassles.

What does a chef for a christening cost?

A chef for a christening typically starts from 299-499 kr. per person depending on the scope of the menu. The price includes all raw ingredients, preparation, serving, and cleanup. Many families choose a brunch buffet or lunch with Danish classics — see specific prices and menus directly on the chefs' profiles.

Popular menus for christenings

Our chefs offer a wide range of menus that are perfect for christenings:

  • Brunch for christening — Freshly baked breads, eggs benedict, smoked salmon, fruit, and homemade granola
  • Classic Danish lunch — Open-faced sandwiches, meatballs, potato salad, and pretzel for dessert
  • Finger food and tapas — Light and elegant, perfect for an afternoon reception
  • Dinner menu — 3-5 course gourmet menu for a more formal celebration
Private chef for any family celebration

Beyond christenings, our chefs can also assist with other family events. Check out our other pages: confirmation, birthday, wedding, company party, barbecue or hire a chef for any occasion.

Delicious barbecue food for christening
That was spot on. The circumstances changed a lot when our garden party was hit by a cloudburst, but Ghostchef adapted to the new plans and all the food tasted super good. The guests were very happy.

Big praise from us. Patrick cooks...
Great praise from us. Patrick cooked for our daughter's christening. 14 dishes in total with both vegetarians and gluten-free options. Snacks, starter, main course, and dessert were executed to perfection, with calm and reassuring presence allowing us to enjoy being together with our guests. Huge recommendation from us, we couldn't have wished for better - and left our kitchen cleaner than he found it - well done! 👍

Frequently asked questions

Have other questions? You can ask the chef directly by sending a message. For general questions, you can always contact our customer service.
What is included when I book a ChefMe chef?

The chef takes care of shopping, cooking, serving and cleaning up the kitchen. You just need to set the table and provide drinks (unless you have added a wine menu or similar), and otherwise enjoy the time with your guests.

When is the latest I should book, and can I make changes after booking?

We recommend reserving the date as early as possible by sending a request to the chef, especially for weekends and around holidays or large events, when demand is high.

Up to 7 days before the event you can adjust the number of guests, and you are always covered by our free cancellation insurance. So you can safely book as soon as you know the date of your event.

Running late and need a chef at short notice? Contact our customer service on 93 40 40 10 or write to kontakt@chefme.dk and we will do what we can to help.

What kinds of events can I book a chef for?

You can book a ChefMe chef for all kinds of events, big or small. From milestone birthdays and weddings to small, intimate dinners with friends, family or colleagues.

Our skilled chefs tailor the menu and the experience to fit your needs perfectly.

Can I change the chef's menu?

Yes, you can start from one of the chef's menu suggestions, and with most chefs have a menu tailored exactly to your wishes.

Simply write your preferences when you send a request, so together you can put together a menu that suits you and your party perfectly.

When do I pay?

We only charge the payment 14 days before the event. If the event is less than 14 days away, we charge the payment immediately on booking confirmation.

Can children's menus be made?

Yes, children are more than welcome. The ChefMe chef can often adapt the menu into child-friendly versions or make special dishes that appeal to the little ones.

Just mention how many children are attending when you send your request, and the chef will make sure both children and adults have a great experience.

Is there a minimum or maximum number of guests?

Each chef decides how many people their menus are suited for.

Most ChefMe chefs cook for parties of 8 to 100 people, but you can also find menus for 5 people, or for more than 200 guests.

What if I have to cancel?

If you need to cancel a confirmed booking, you can. ChefMe has a flexible cancellation policy:

  • 7 days or more before the event: you get the full amount refunded.
  • 3 to 6 days before the event: you get 70% of the amount refunded.
  • Less than 3 days before the event: the order can no longer be cancelled.

If the chef has to cancel (which fortunately is rare), you naturally get the full amount refunded, and we help you find a new chef.

What if I have more questions?

You are always welcome to ask our customer service, we are here to help!

Remember too that as soon as you send a request to a chef, you can ask the chef questions through our messaging system.

If any questions come up, you can always call our customer service on 93 40 40 10 or write to kontakt@chefme.dk
