6 Tips to arrange a successful catering event


Corporate events are much awaited but only a few people are aware of the hard work and dedication it demands. Apart from choosing a good office party caterers in London, there are many other tasks that can be handled by the organisers only. We have enlisted a few tips and tricks that will help you arrange the things like a pro.

1.     Count heads: The first thing your event planner will ask about is an estimated head count. They always need a count to get started with their arrangements and menu options. Also, there will be a minimum number of guests they will ask for a buffet menu.  

2.     Overestimate the count head: Believe me, there will be a few last minute attendees that will disturb your arrangements. It is better to be prepared beforehand. Make booking for a few extra persons to keep you in a safer space.

3.     Set a budget: You may have hired the most efficient London catering service but you always need to plan a budget before entering into the preparations. Clarify your needs and highlight your menu requirements along with your budget before finalising any deal. Event planners may help you with your budget and plan them.

4.      Stick to a schedule: It is important to draft a schedule because things should go formally in a corporate event. If you are expecting multiple speakers or presentations make a schedule for them and stick to it. Also, prepare a schedule for serving of snacks or dinner.

5.     Party theme: A theme can add glamour to your party. It can be a dinner party or an afternoon tea delivery, a theme will make it more interesting. A buffet or tea can surprise your employees but it won’t go well if you truly want to applaud them.

Dietary restrictions: Any of your employees or guests can be going through some dietary restrictions. It is the responsibility of the organiser to collect information about it and keep it in mind while finalising the menu. People with dietary restrictions often look for gluten free or vegan-meal options.
