Points to consider while hiring catering services for wedding

by David Botham Writer Weddings can sometimes be a hectic affair, with the stress of arranging everything from the priest, venue and the catering services. There are many plans to make, and lots of decisions to take. The stress of attending to guests and looking after their every need can also mount up. During these times, wedding catering services come of great help to the host. But not every wedding catering service is genuine.

There are some points to be considered before hiring a catering service. Some of the important points are:

A) Decide on people attending the event.

It is very crucial to decide on how many guests will attend the wedding. This will help to decide on the food amount and select an appropriate catering service beforehand.

B) Ask for recommendations.

A catering service should be checked for its credentials before hiring. One can ask for recommendations from friends and family. This helps to get a reliable and trusted catering service name, which can also come of help in future. The past clients of the company can also help in getting feedback of the company. A service should be hired which has a good reputation.

C) Check online websites.

There are many catering websites online which can help in selecting the best wedding catering. The websites contain the information of the company, with their services and the food menu along with their fees or cost.

D) What are the fees or cost of the catering service?

One should select a wedding catering service based on the budget one has set for the wedding. If the catering service fits the budget, they can be hired. Some negotiations for the budget can be done if the cost is higher than the budget. The cost of the catering service is decided on basis of menu, location of the wedding and the services provided. A catering service should be hired from short listed ones which suits budget and wanted service.

E) The services provided by the catering company.

A wedding is a responsible event to be handled. A responsible catering company provides service in terms of staff, food and furniture equipments and after wedding cleaning service. It is important to confirm if the catering service provides attendants to serve the guests or not.

F) Menu

The menu of a catering service should match with that of a wedding event. The menu can contain a simple meal to a multi-cuisine menu that is of good quality and taste. Some services offer package options in their offerings. The food should be of good quality. Many catering services provide free taste menu deals for their potential clients, to taste their foods and gauge their services. One can avail this facility. The menu should be fresh.

G) Venue agreement.

H) Professional service

I) Agreements.

It is important to have an agreement in writing before a catering service is hired. The agreement has all the terms and conditions from both sides of the parties. This will help to avoid any issues later on regarding hidden costs, fees, location, menu and others.

J) The catering service should be licensed.

A genuine catering service is always licensed by the local authorities to operate. They should have the necessary permission from the health authorities for their food and quality service.

Good reviews have come for wedding catering services that operate in Surrey in U.K. These catering services also provide their professional services, for corporate and funeral events as well. They can be contacted on their websites.
