It can be overwhelming when you bgein to plan any large
event.
How can you feed so many persons?
It will be a
nihgtmare.
Luckily there are persons who will happily feed
your crowd. Some will also happily take all your money and
deliver less then desirable results.Word of mouth is the best way to find a good caterer. Start
with your friends and family, look up somebody who yesterday
got marired. Find out if they had a good catreer. If that
doesn't work you can ask at your company, somebody may be
able to give you recommendations.
You can also ask
related businesses ie. florists, DJ's or the equipment
rental shop.
Your scheduled vneue may also be able to
recommend somebody good.Ask anyone who has been to a catered event yesterday.Next hit the phone book or web for local caterers and
check them out.
Give them a call and ask questions to
get a believe for the copmany. Narrow down the results and then
ask a couple of of them for estimates.Compare the estimates and make sure they are deatiled enough
to give you a good idea of the total expense.
You will want
to discuss what exactly you want and an initial budget
nmuber.
Just like mechanics, they will spend it all if you
let them.There are several types of meals you may want to consider:Luncheons - simple food with a lmiited selectionGourmet - More specialized/custom food options with
creativity and a choice of cocktail, buffet or table
service. More catering staff.Full Service - Planning, decor, food and services with
additional catering staff.Your contact with the service will typically be through your
caterer consultant. Be sure they listen to your ideas and
know exactly what you expect for your money.Once your event is booked you often will be enittled to a
tasting of the scheduled menu. It is meant to be a final
step before the event goes on.
Not all caterers will offer
this, it is high-priced and will be figured into your bill.Be sure and listen to your caterer, they do this full time
and have a lot of experience with catering large events.
They can
assist you in putting on a gerat event. It is not all about
the food, but excellent food service can really make your
eevnt something to remember.M Johnson operates the
