Dos

Review every detail thoroughly
Usually, catering contracts have a lot of
detailed information added to them. Make sure to
review each point thoroughly before signing in
the final. While you are reviewing, note any
areas of doubt or questions that come to your
mind. An experienced catering service will
readily help you with happy answers and clear all
your doubts.
Specify your needs and wants
When you are talking with your event caterers
make sure you lay in your needs and wants clearly
and precisely. Like certain details you are
looking for or any special needs or wants you
expect to be included in the services. Make sure
you present a clear picture to the caterer about
your expectation to avoid any miscommunications
on the go.

Ensure enough food for your guests
Event catering can be quite a pricey affair, so
as a host on a budget your first temptation would
be to cut down the numbers to save on the costs.
However, this isnt a good idea as it's always
better to have some extra food than less food.
Especially if it's a large gathering, it
negatively affects your image badly. People wont
complain about extra food, but they are sure to
get upset if they dont get any served.

Donts
Dont make your menu complicated
Instead of overwhelming your attendees with too
many menu items, it's best to keep your food menu
simple with some efficient options. As lunch
breaks are shorter for most events especially if
it's on the corporate line, having a simple menu
to choose from will help people choose their
favourite options efficiently. Also, avoid exotic
foods like octopus or other lavish items for
large gatherings. Make sure to include an equal
balance of items that most people would enjoy
happily.

Dont make last-minute menu changes
Usually, an event menu is planned ahead of the
weeks to finalise the total headcounts and
expected food menu with suitable dietary
specifications. Any alteration after the
finalised plan can not confuse the caterers nut
can lead to insufficient services when your hired
company fails to meet the last-minute
requirement. So, for the best results and smooth
running of the event, plan everything and recheck
your check catering list to ensure everything is
smooth on both sides.

Dont just ignore suggestions to save money
When your caterer suggests something that can
potentially improve your event vibe, dont ignore
it straight away just to save some mere costs.
Instead, take the advice at face value and
contemplate whether it works for you. Like if
your catering company suggests adding a variety
of juices or teas to serve along with water, it's
not a bad idea to implement even if it costs a
bit above your budget bar.


Now that you are aware of the core Dos and Donts
of event catering, it will be even easier for you
to work with your caterers right from start to
end to pull in a successful memorable event.
