SOUND FAMILIAR?

Catering goes smoother when the headcount, menu, service, and dietary details are locked before the event

The food style has to match the event

Plated service, buffet, family-style, live stations, seasonality, and per-head budget all shape what the menu can realistically become.

Every guest needs a safe way to eat

Allergies, restrictions, vegetarian options, kid-friendly choices, and clear labels help the table feel welcoming instead of stressful.

Drinks need the same level of planning as food

Bar style, non-alcoholic options, quantities, pouring, refills, and cleanup all affect the guest experience.

Late headcount changes can derail service

Tastings, staffing, rentals, delivery timing, service flow, leftovers, and final pricing work best when confirmed in writing.

WHAT’S INSIDE

Inside the checklist, 6 sections and 24 items

01 Set the Menu Direction

Match food style to the event, choose the service format, consider the season, and set a per-head budget early.

02 Account for Every Guest

Collect restrictions, plan allergy-safe options, include children when needed, and estimate portions generously.

03 Plan the Drinks Service

Decide bar style, plan alcoholic and non-alcoholic options, calculate quantities, and confirm who handles service and cleanup.

04 Coordinate With the Caterer

Schedule the tasting, confirm staffing and rentals, clarify delivery timing, and get final pricing and headcount in writing.

05 Prepare for Service Day

Confirm the final count, prevent bottlenecks, label dietary stations clearly, and plan leftovers and safe storage.

06 Plan the Menu With AI

Use AI to build a balanced menu, calculate quantities, generate allergy-friendly swaps, and prepare smart caterer questions.
