Your food and drink are likely to be where you spend the majority of your wedding budget, so it pays to make sure you get it right. Here are 20 quick questions to ask your caterer to ensure you get the best food, drink and service you could hope for.
About the Food
- Do you offer menu tastings so we can try your food before booking?
- Will you be willing to prepare alternative meals for guests with special dietary requirements?
- Would you be willing to make a family recipe we can provide you with?
- Where will the food be prepared?
- If you prepare the food on-site, will you need to bring in your own equipment, and is there an additional fee for this?
- Where do you source your food from – for instance is it organic, locally grown, fresh food?
- How will you arrange the buffet – on large platters for instance, and do you have any photos of buffets you have arranged for other similar weddings?
