Enhancing Your Reception Party Experience

If you’ve gotten to the reception part of your wedding planning, then you’ve probably realized that the catering part is quite important, complex and a little confusing. To enhance your reception party, you should focus on the food but when it comes to wedding reception catering is where you encounter terms like food allergies, how much a person actually eats and so on. We at Hunt Country Celebrations understand and can help you when it comes to your wedding catering in Northern Virginia. The first step is to get a good wedding caterer and the following tips from us can help with that.

• Their Attention to Detail

Wedding catering is much more than food. Some décor, table arrangements, and food presentation will come into play. The setting up, running and clearing up after all fall to the caterer so a good caterer must be good at paying attention to details.

• Their Experience

When it comes to wedding food, experience matters a lot. No matter how beautiful the venue is, if the food is awful you and your guests will remember it forever. Your caterer should also be good with menu plans, safe preparation, reheating and transportation of large amounts of food.

• Food Safety

A good caterer should be aware of and comply with the most up to date food and safety laws. Their staff should also be compliant. Ask them this during the initial interview to ascertain that they are.

• Flexibility and Creativity

A good caterer must be flexible and creative. They may need to adjust a recipe on account of a food allergy or a dietary requirement.  An imaginative and adaptable caterer will be able to cope with this.

• Customer Service

A good caterer is courteous, tactful and diplomatic where necessary. They should also have good communication skills and know how to relate to people.
