Which venue facilities should I list?
List access, preparation space, water, electricity and serving areas where relevant. Identify any venue restrictions that could affect setup or timing.
Who confirms preparation arrangements?
The host, venue and catering team should agree responsibilities before confirmation. Avoid assuming that a location automatically permits or supports every preparation arrangement.
Can outdoor requirements be discussed?
Yes, describe the outdoor area, access and available facilities. Weather-related and setup requirements should be reviewed for the actual venue and event.
How can we request a menu-specific quotation?
Share the event date, venue, guest estimate and venue access, preparation area and utility availability. A quote should be tied to an agreed menu and service basis rather than an unexplained amount per person.
What should be agreed before booking?
Confirm the dishes, guest basis, service timing and responsibilities for preparation, staffing and equipment. Review availability, exclusions, changes and commercial terms before considering the event booked.
