How to Plan for Celebration of Life Catering

Don’t forget to consider the practical aspects of your catering needs. Here are five things to consider when booking a caterer for an event at a funeral home, church, or private reception hall:

  1. Venue policies: Where and how are you allowed to bring in a caterer? Are any foods/drinks prohibited? What other policies does the location have?
  2. Menu and Dietary Needs: Determine the desired menu and communicate any dietary restrictions to the caterer early on.
  3. Staffing and Equipment: Ensure the caterer has enough staff and equipment to handle the event’s needs.
  4. Location and Insurance: Verify the caterer’s familiarity with the venue and their insurance coverage.
  5. References and Flexibility: Ask for references and be open to discussing your needs and preferences with the caterer.

By carefully considering these factors and choosing a caterer like Creative Catering Services and GG Sweets Bakery, you can ensure that the food at your celebration of life is as memorable and meaningful as the occasion itself.
