Your Catering Event Coordination!

Whenever an important event is approaching, it's a relief to work with a San Diego event coordinator that has catering experience so they can help you plan (and realize) every culinary detail you've envisioned. So what should you expect when working with an experienced event planner?

Expert Consultation:

The initial step in planning an event is to understand the client's overall vision and goal for the party. Event Planners should spend time with clients discussing the theme, type of party, and what the client has already envisioned i.e. décor, catering menus, food preferences, alcohol preferences, equipment, etc.

Customization:

A professional San Diego event coordinator should be able to take you from the proposal stage to the day of the event, working with you on even the most minute of details. You won't be passed from one person to another; instead, you'll value the undivided attention you receive from a single collaborator. Basically, professional catering event planners should be able to seamlessly lead you through every step of the process.

Familiarity With Your Venue:

Established event coordinators that are familiar with catering events will know the in's and out's of your city's popular venues. They can provide great advice on what works well while suggesting alternatives that will save you money on catering and other associated costs.

Trusted Vendors:

Most of us aren't familiar with the top local vendors or the most popular caterers in San Diego. Your event planner, however, should be, and their experience grants them the ability to recommend a trusted and reputable caterer.

References:

It's smart to ask for them, and can't do any harm. A good caterer will have plenty of clients happy to give them a favorable recommendation. It is also good to ask for a customer who had an event that was similar to the one you will be having.

Planning the Event Layout:

Professional event coordinators often create a room diagram to scale, allowing you to make sure you're aware of what the room will look like before the event. This ensures that everything (including the food) will fit in your chosen location.
