Event Catering

How much does catering cost?
This will very much depend on the type of caterer you are looking for. Perhaps you’d like to know a supplier’s finger buffet price per head or perhaps you’re interested in catering packages for a prom. You may need to know wedding catering costs per head or perhaps you will choose a provider purely based on their catering prices. The length of time they are required to be at your event and how far they will need to travel will also be factors. If you're interested in booking a caterer simply submit a quote request to get detailed pricing from catering providers.

How can I find cheap catering services?
Remember that finding the cheapest caterer doesn’t necessarily mean you’ve got the best deal. It’s about value for money. Some caterers may adapt their menu in line with your budget, so if you like the look of a caterer yet your budget doesn’t cover the most affordable options, ask what they can do. Or perhaps you can opt for a buffet instead of a sit down meal?

What type of event catering is available?
This very much depends on where you are based, the type of cuisine you are looking for and your budget. Generally, certain kinds of catering tend to suit certain budgets; for example, street food catering services are likely to cost less than high end gourmet food catering. Do you need caterers for afternoon tea or canapés? There are so many types of catering services available, that it helps to think about what will best suit your event prior to making enquiries.

Can caterers supply all dining and cooking equipment?
Catering supplies will depend on each individual company. Many companies, if they do not hire the equipment themselves will be able to arrange it for you, at a cost. However do make sure you state your needs early on so you are able to source the equipment if they cannot.

Can I supply my own drinks and have a catering company serve them?
Catering companies’ answers to this question will vary. Most caterers will be happy to do this for you during a meal, however be aware that you will likely be charged corkage. This is something you should discuss with each caterer.
