Pick a Venue
With times being as they are you can find deals everywhere. By picking a fun and unique venue for the party, you will be creating positive buzz long before the event date. A quick and easy way to do this, is to survey your employees. You can also Google Corporate Holiday Catering Venues.
Remember the weather might be bad that time of year so try and keep the driving distance to a minimum. This will help in keeping the cancellations to a minimum.
It is party time, but what kind of party?
Having a plain old party is much better than nothing. Yet a party with a theme will get many people involved and talking about your event. By having a theme you will be creating some excitement before the event begins. Again, a contest for the type of theme can take the pressure of the planers.
A theme will make decorating a breeze, since everyone will have a direction to follow. These days you can find theme directions on any idea online fairly cheap. A theme will also make it easier to come up with a menu, contests and creation of invitations or fliers promoting the event.
It is time for the Caterer
Often the food will make or break the party. It is a way for all the party goers to have something in common to talk about. Bland food may not hurt the party but it will not excite people the way different and tasty food can. Look for a holiday caterer who has experience with these events and can offer some references. Going with Julie’s uncle may not be the best bet for something so important.
Time for the Menu
Now that you have a theme and a caterer the menu should fall into place. Yet now is also the time for creativity. Do your best to steer away from the same old same old. Actually a good trick is to look at several menus and compile a list of the typical items. Then agree not to use any of these items.
Also remember when looking at prices on the web, they will vary greatly. If you live in Rome or in Cartersville the prices may differ by 100% or more.
Consult with your Holiday Caterer about how much food to prepare. Make sure you have a nice balance of cheaper filling foods along with the more upscale expensive items. Take into consideration the time of day also, as people will fill there plate more around dinner time, then at other times of the day
Pricing for individual items can also vary greatly. Be fair with your holiday caterer and don’t expect to get prime rib for chopped steak prices. If you are careful to pick some expensive items with an equal amount of inexpensive items you should come out just right.
Follow these easy steps and you will have many happy employees while delivering your corporate holiday catering on a budget in Rome or wherever you live!
