How Do I Choose an Event Menu?

Believe it or not, food can make or break the event. Food may not be at the top of your list when planning an event, but attendees are as likely to remember a bad meal forever. Unforeseen allergies and hidden costs are the two factors that can make your event food an unnecessary source of stress if you are not prepared. If you are not sure where to start, you are in the right place. Here we have a few tips for finding a reliable catering company, set budget, and plan a menu that your guests will enjoy:-

Pay attention to the details

Before you start searching for a corporate lunch catering Sydney Company, create a list of event details, including the date, location, venue, and the number of guests you are expecting, and everything that is relevant to your event. Preparing the list will help you narrow down your options once you start searching for the catering company, especially if you have a theme in your mind.

Stick to the budget

Ensure to ask the corporate events catering Sydney about additional costs such as labour and service charges. Knowing all your costs upfront will help to eliminate the stress and stick to the budget. In fact, you should always ask the caterers for an itemised estimate of all prices. If you find that their quote is out of your budget, let them know what you are looking for and see if they can come with good solutions to try and fit in your budget.

Match the affair

Ensure your menu should blend well with the overall tone of your event. If it is a casual, you need to consider corporate bbq catering Sydney. Consider plated food that can be taken with forks and knives if the event is in evening. If it is a fundraiser or a networker event where people will be up and mingling, you may opt for a buffet style. You can also choose stations, brunch, cocktail, BBQ, etc. The servicing will dictate a lot of food choices that you could add to your menu.

Consider your guests

A thoughtful menu accommodates the guests, as well. Who is going to attend the event? What do they like to eat? Are there any food allergies and dietary restrictions? By answering these questions you should be able to choose a menu for your event that suits the needs of your attendees. Delicious vegetarian dishes make memorable event one for those who are vegan.
