The meal is often the main taste memory for your guests. Here's how to choose your caterer.
The tasting, an essential step
Never commit without having tasted the dishes. It's the opportunity to judge the quality of the ingredients, the cooking and the presentation.
Choose the right format
- Seated dinner : elegant and sociable, ideal for formal ceremonies.
- Buffet : more relaxed, perfect for encouraging mingling.
- Cocktail reception : modern and dynamic.
Anticipate special dietary requirements
Vegetarian, halal, kosher, gluten-free, allergies… A good caterer knows how to adapt to all your guests, whatever their culture.
Check what's included
Service, tableware, staff, drinks: ask for a detailed quote to avoid surprises.
Count on an average between 80 € and 150 € per guest depending on the package.
