Tip No. 1
After deciding on a caterer, ensure both you and the caterer read the contract thoroughly and sign it. Be sure both parties are clear on things like what time the food will be delivered, who is supplying the dinnerware and who is responsible for cleanup. That way, you can relax on your wedding day, knowing everyone else will take care of the work!
Tip No. 2
Before meeting with your cake baker, have a general idea of how many people you want to serve at the reception and how much you want to spend per person. The baker charges by the slice, and the cost can vary from $3 to $7, depending on the icing and fillings. For variety, consider having a smaller bridal cake and adding several other different flavored cakes for each table at the reception, or even cupcakes.
Tip No. 3
Two words: taste test. You wouldn’t want your guests to dine on anything you wouldn’t eat yourself. Before deciding on a menu, interview different caterers to see what they have to offer and if their treats are as tasty as they claim.
