When hiring your wedding caterer, check to see if the location for your reception provides refrigeration and cooking equipment. If not, make sure your wedding caterer is fully self supported with portable refrigeration and heating equipment.
A competent wedding caterer will prepare much of the food in hither own kitchen and should provide an adequate staff of cooks, servers, and bartenders. Ask your wedding caterer for references and look at photos from previous parties so you know how the food will be presented; or better yet, visit an event they are catering.
There are several questions to ask a wedding caterer:
• How many years has been in business
• What percentage of caterer's business is dedicated to wedding receptions
• Does caterer have liability insurance?
• Is your caterer licensed to serve alcohol?
• When does your wedding caterer require the final head-count?
• What is the ratio of servers to guests for your wedding caterer
• How much gratuity does your wedding caterer expect
• What is the cake-cutting fee?
• What is the bar tending fee?
• What is the fee to clean up after the reception
• What is the payment/cancellation policy
