Top wedding catering mistakes you need to avoid! ๐จ (Trust us, we've seen it all!)
Here's what can make or break your event's dining experience:
1๏ธโฃ Underestimating portions - Nothing worse than running out of food mid-event!
2๏ธโฃ Forgetting dietary restrictions - Always plan for vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options
3๏ธโฃ Poor timing - Food temperature matters! Nobody wants cold hot food or melted cold dishes
4๏ธโฃ No backup plan - Weather changes? Equipment issues? Always have Plan B ready
5๏ธโฃ Skipping the tasting - Never serve what you haven't tried yourself
๐ก Pro tip: Working with experienced caterers helps you avoid these pitfalls entirely!
What's the worst catering mistake you've experienced at an event?
A little wedding day secret...๐คซ๐
Our brides and grooms never leave empty-handed. Before the night ends, we send them off with a special take-home bag filled with:
๐ฅ A bottle of champagne
๐ฐ A slice (or two) of their wedding cake (if itโs not all gone๐)
๐ฝ๏ธ Leftovers from their reception meal
Because we know the last thing they had time for today was actually eating their own wedding food! ๐
Tag a couple who NEEDS this on their big day! โฌ๏ธ
How do we make sure EVERY event is memorable? Our secret is in the details. ๐
It's not just about the food (though ours is pretty fantastic๐คฉ) - it's about:
โ
anticipating needs before they arise
โ
noticing when glasses need refilling, and
โ
making sure servers know each guest's dietary restrictions by heart
Behind every "wow" moment at your event is hours of planning, preparation, and a team that genuinely cares about getting it right.
Organizing something special? Let's sweat the small stuff together so you don't have to! ๐
If you could have unlimited servings of ONE Hors D'Oeuvres for life, which would you pick? ๐ค
We've seen people fight over beef portobello stacks and nearly wrestle for the last caprese skewer with balsamic drizzle!
But if you had to commit to just ONE forever... what's your pick? ๐ง ๐ค ๐ฅ
One thing EVERY business event needs?
A menu that wows! ๐ฝ๏ธ
Let's be honest - people remember two things from corporate events: how boring the speeches were and how good (or bad) the food was! ๐
Why great food matters at your business events:
๐ง Keeps attention spans alive
๐ค Creates natural networking opportunities
๐ผ Shows clients you pay attention to details
โฐ Gives everyone something to look forward to
Skip the sad sandwich platters! Your next quarterly meeting, client pitch, or team building deserves food that makes people put down their phones and pick up their forks.
