About

Stella's Pizza Pie is a unique wedding caterer serving the San Diego, California area. We know that many of today’s couples have moved away from traditional and predictable catering, choosing instead a novel concept for their special day. Whether your vision is rustic or vintage romantic, Stella’s will excite and satisfy your guests with luscious hot, wood-fired pizza from our mobile oven and a beautiful, traditional Italian buffet that rivals any spread you’ve seen laid out in photos of the Tuscan countryside.

Weddings are our specialty and primary focus. Our Event Manager works hand in hand with you to craft your menu and explore serving options, to ensure that all aspects of our service will be an amazing part of the most important day of your lives.

We begin our service on your wedding day at your cocktail hour with a sumptuous display of appetizers of your choice that may include a succulent Shrimp Scampi, several varieties of wood-fired Bruschetta, fresh Mini Caprese drizzled with a Balsamic glaze, and our spectacular Brie Fantastico -- Brie baked in our wood-fired oven to molten perfection, topped with our signature fig, liquor and pecan spread. We also offer a lavish Charcuterie Display.

Following your cocktail hour, we will create a lavish buffet with our fresh, gourmet pizza straight from our wood-fired oven. Surround it with our delicious salads, pasta dishes and entrees, and you have a feast that your guests will be talking about long after the last dance.

We've been wowing San Diego couples for years with our sumptuous food and excellent service, and would love to be there for you as well.

Best. Wedding. Ever!

You’ve got to book Stella’s! We had nothing but the easiest, most pleasant experience working with Stella’s Pizza Pie, and we’d love to work with them again in the future. From the initial tasting to the day of our wedding, working with Amy and co. at Stella’s was a straightforward, exciting, stress-free (and ultimately delicious!) process. Stella’s Pizza Pie was one of our venue’s recommended vendors, and day-of operations were a breeze! We opted to have a couple of extra hands (hired as an option through Stella’s) and the entire service and clean-up was smoother than we could have dreamed. They even cut our assortment of pies for the dessert portion of the meal! We have had multiple of our attendees say to us that it was some of the best pizza (if not THE best pizza) they’ve ever had. And the tub — and I mean a tub! — of Caesar salad was a huge hit. If you want to offer your guests a meal that’s different than the standard chicken-and-fish wedding fare, and if you want to save yourself a number of headaches trying to find a great vendor partner, do yourself a favor and book Stella’s!

Please look no further and book now!

When it came to choosing our wedding caterer, we were honestly nervous. We had attended so many weddings where the food was an afterthought, cold potatoes, rubbery meat, and expensive catering that simply didn't live up to the price. We understood the challenge of feeding a large number of guests, but we weren't willing to spend thousands of dollars on food that people would barely remember.

Then we found Stella's Pizza, and it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.

The idea seemed so simple: pizza is delicious whether it's piping hot, warm, or even cooling down a bit, making it the perfect wedding meal. But Stella's took that idea and elevated it far beyond anything we could have imagined. This wasn't generic pizza it was handcrafted, gourmet pizza made with fresh, high-quality ingredients and a menu full of unique and creative options that our guests absolutely loved.

One of the coolest parts of the experience was watching them bring their own pizza oven to the venue and cook everything fresh on-site. The aroma alone had our guests excited, and the pizzas coming out of the oven all night were a huge hit. We received countless compliments from friends and family, many of whom told us it was some of the best wedding food they had ever had.

What made the experience even more special is that Stella's is family owned. You can truly feel the care, passion, and pride they put into their food and service. Every interaction with their team was warm, professional, and genuinely kind.

They even helped us with our late-night bites, serving fresh French baguettes and butter that our guests happily devoured after a night of celebrating. It was such a thoughtful addition and another example of how they went above and beyond.

If you're looking for wedding catering that people will actually remember and rave about long after the event is over, Stella's Pizza is the answer. They delivered incredible food, exceptional service, and an unforgettable experience. We couldn't recommend them more highly!

The best caterer!!!

We had Stella’s Pizza cater our wedding and honestly, we’re still getting messages from guests about the food weeks later. Pizza at a wedding might raise a few eyebrows, but the moment people took their first slice, any skepticism went straight out the window.

The quality was just really, really good. Everything tasted fresh and you could tell it wasn’t just churned out — there was proper care behind it. We went back and forth a lot on the catering decision but Stella’s made us feel like we’d nailed it.

The team were also just lovely people. Friendly, relaxed, and they got on with it without us having to worry about a thing — which on your wedding day is exactly what you need.

If you’re thinking about booking them, do it. We’d choose Stella’s again in a heartbeat.

Our Best Vendor

Stella’s Pizza Pie catered our wedding in October. ~160 people. They were amazing. Nothing but great things to say about them. Our guests are still raving about the food and it was a pleasure to work with their staff, including Amy and Gina who helped us plan before and manage the day of. Grateful for Stella‘s Pizza Pie and will absolutely consider them for future catering events.

Stella’s Pizza Pie - We Absolutely Love You!!!

I don’t even know where to begin because Stella’s Pizza Pie wasn’t just our wedding caterer, they became one of the reasons our day felt so full of joy, comfort, and love. From our very first conversation, their kindness and genuine care shined through. It felt like we were being taken care of by people who truly wanted our day to be perfect.

On the wedding day, they exceeded every hope I had. The food… absolutely incredible. The most delicious, heart-warming pizza that instantly brings people together. Our guests kept coming up to us all night saying it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had. Even our vegan and vegetarian guests felt so seen and included.

But what touched me the most was the team themselves. Their energy was so warm, so positive, so present. They handled everything quietly and flawlessly in the background while we lived out the most important moments of our lives. I could feel that they cared. That means everything to a bride. AND when I asked THEM to dance with ME on the dance floor? They brought on the vibesss!!

October wedding!

Stellas was so amazing!, being able to do a tasting in the comfort of a home made us immediately feel like family and that we were making the best choice! When looking for a catering service we were quoted high from so many vendors in comparison to Stellas they offer bang for your buck with an amazing team and amazing service. the not having to worry about hiring an extra crew for clean up was by far amazing. They were so sweet during the entire process and the food was amazing, every guest raved over the food and I am still craving it after my wedding day! One of my guests loved it so much he ate 4 whole pizzas to himself lol!

BEST decision ever!!

From the very beginning, we knew there was something special about Stella’s Pizza Pie. Our tasting at their home was honestly one of the highlights of our entire wedding planning process. It felt like we were being welcomed into the family. Yes, the food is incredible (the appetizers, salads, pizzas, and desserts are all perfection), but it was the people who truly won us over.

Amy, Vito, Gina, and the whole Stella’s team pour so much care into every part of the experience. They truly care about serving incredible pizza with super fresh, high-quality ingredients and making your special day amazing. On the wedding day, their staff was warm, professional, and made everything seamless. Our guests are still raving about the food (and we’re still dreaming about those pizzas!)

Stella’s Pizza Pie was hands down the BEST decision we made for our wedding, and we can’t recommend them enough to any SoCal couple looking for catering that feels both delicious and deeply personal.

Excellent food and services!

We chose Stella's Pizza Pie for our wedding back in 04/2025 and it was amazing! Many things went wrong in our wedding but something that was absolutely perfect, was the food! Thank you Amy and your team for delivering high quality food and excellent service. We decided to add the chicken scaloppini and Francesco's baked pasta, and my husband still talks about that chicken and I still dream about that delicious pasta! Everything was wonderful, every single item we chose was a hit! We selected the Berry Bruschetta, Ceasar salad, chicken scaloppini, Francesco's baked pasta, and 4 pizza options (Fresh King, Pig Pen, Bird's the Word, Pesto Pie). I would highly recommend Stella's Pizza Pie!!!

Stella’s Pizza Pie – A Slice of Wedding Perfection!

From the very first tasting to the final slice served on our big day, Stella’s Pizza Pie was absolutely phenomenal. Amy and her team went above and beyond every step of the way — their professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made the entire process feel effortless.

The pizza? Incredible. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about it! But what really set them apart was how smoothly they handled everything — from dietary restrictions to last-minute modifications and even a few quirky requests. Amy just made it all happen, no stress, no fuss.

If you want a vendor who’s not only talented but also a total joy to work with, Stella’s is it. They brought the flavor, the fun, and the flawless service. 10/10 would get married again just for the pizza.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
