Don't Hestitate to Ask Questions
Discuss Your Budget and Ask About Options
Reputable, experienced caterers make customers comfortable when discussing planning budgets, options, and contingencies. You should not feel embarrassed to tell a caterer that you have a certain amount to spend and that the event should be planned accordingly. Also, be sure you know what the extras will cost and all of the obligations you are expected to cover. If you sense that the caterer is not being open or honest about price and cost, take your business to another caterer.
Make an Action List and Start Early
You can avoid last-minute stress and expensive mistakes by starting early and jotting down a quick summary of the factors that you want to be the basis of your decision. Figure out a logical order for going about your decision-making and set up a schedule. Be sure to give yourself plenty of time and don’t trust your luck alone. A good action list and decision schedule will make a world of difference.
Wrap-Up
Simply stated, you don’t need to be a professional event planner to pick the right caterer for your next catered celebration. If you start early, plan ahead, and follow through, you will have the facts you need to make a sound decision so that when the big day comes, you can relax with your guests and enjoy yourself.

Drive-By Events
COVID-19 has changed the way that we celebrate, which means drive-by birthdays, weddings, baby showers, and other forms of social distancing parties are becoming more and more popular. As such, CBM has you covered when it comes to drive-by catering across Philadelphia, Bucks County, and South Jersey.
Investigate Before You Decide
Avoid Surprises
Ask for a copy of the caterer’s standard contract and read it. Be sure you understand its basic provisions and ask questions if you don’t. Inspect sample catering menus and taste samples of the caterer’s food, if possible. This is especially important if you are planning an event that involves ethnic specialties or other culinary challenges. Other suggestions:
- Visit the caterer’s party hall (if applicable)
- Check out photo albums of previously catered events similar to yours. When looking at photos, concentrate on room decorations, table settings and the mood of the guests in the pictures.
- Inspect the caterer’s food preparation and delivery facilities.
