1 7 TIPS TO FINDING THE BEST FOOD CATERER FOR YOUR EVENT

2 Best Food Caterer  Whether you like it or not, people will talk about the food served in your event.  Hence, you’d want to work only with the best food caterer.  Hiring an event planner is not a requirement.  You can do this on your own successfully, but you will need to take note of a few things while going through it.

3 Here are few tips to helping you get started.

4 Start Early  Note that good caterers get booked fast. Do your research ahead of time, say at least six months before the event itself.  Caterers will also have to do some preparations on their end weeks before.  Also, even if the good ones are available on your event date, chances are they’ll skip if they’re not given enough time.

5 Ask for Recommendations  As enticing as the images are on their website, you can’t base your decision from here.  Word-of-mouth is still the most reliable form of advertising. No one knows a vendor better than their customers do.  Gather recommendations from friends.  Check as well the caterer’s social media accounts and go over the feedback from customers.

6 Discuss Size  It should be clear between you and the caterer how many guests are expected to come.  Some caterers specialize in small or intimate events, while there are those that are well- experienced in huge functions.  You’d want your caterer be able to accommodate all your guests properly so be honest on this and finalize your guest list as early as possible.

7 Inquire about Expertise  Filter down your list by knowing the type of catering services the caterer does.  It should be a lot easier to work with a team that has been serving in an event similar to yours.

8 Do a Taste Test This is the fun part in selecting a caterer and also one you shouldn’t miss out on. Your event’s theme can affect the menu. Your caterer has to know this as they may have menu specializations too. They also need to be advised early on about customizations you want done, say your guests are mostly vegetarians or many are bringing along their kids. If a caterer doesn’t offer a taste test, move on to your next option.

9 Know the Rules in the Event Venue  There are event venues that do not allow outside caterers.  There are those, on the other hand, that do not allow cooking or certain equipment in the venue.  You need to know this early on to save you from further inconveniences.

10 Finalize the Contract  Talk about the payment and request for a quote.  Note that caterers usually require a deposit as part of your commitment that you are indeed hiring them for the job and to cover the cost as well for the preparations they did, in case you decide to back out.  Make sure that both parties have discussed the event details and what’s inclusive of the catering service such as the staff and materials.

11 Tips to Finding the Best  Those are the 7 tips to finding the best food caterer for your event.  By learning those tips you can make sure that your event stands out among the rest and that you will be leaving with smile on your face and some good memories.
