TheBrideDesign.com Gives Tips on Picking the Perfect Wedding Caterer
New York, NY (PRWEB) July 25, 2013 -- Beyond the ceremony, wedding reception food is one of the highlights of a wedding for guests. Choosing a caterer should be done as early as possible, and settling for something sub-par can prove disastrous. The News-Sentinel.com published an article on July 16, 2013 about being picky when choosing a wedding caterer and TheBrideDesign.com is using this article as a platform for giving brides tips on choosing the perfect wedding caterer.
When choosing a wedding caterer, look to friends whose wedding catering or custom reception favor were a success, or friends that expressed satisfaction with their caterer. Word of mouth is quickly becoming the most trusted way for businesses to get new contacts. Ask friends and family about their reception experiences, including any special needs the caterer accommodated, including sugar free items.
Online review sites are also a trusted way to do some reference checking before choosing a caterer. These sites usually do not filter results or reviews, so the bride will be reading customers’ unbiased opinions. Ask each caterer for references, and contact them. Make it a point to ask for images or pictures of the caterer’s dishes.
Every catering business should hold a catering license, which is controlled at the state level. This is a mandatory license that ensures that each caterer is implementing safe food practices. Make sure the caterer has a current catering license.
The bride should always trust her feelings when it comes to dealing with a caterer. If the caterer seems flakey, doesn’t return calls, or offers excuses for poor performance, the bride should run – not walk – the other way. These are all signs of a less than professional operation, and can severely impact upon the reception.
