There are different types of special events, from wedding reception to birthday parties, and most of these occasions demand the service of food. While some caterers focus on one type of event, many are comfortable catering at any one.
Advantages:
- These events offer the chance to employ innovative ideas for decoration and planning, besides the opportunity to apply your chef’s skills.
- They often offer a good opportunity to make a name for yourself through word of mouth. Guests that attend a well catered special event will be interested in hiring you as they plan their own occasions.
Disadvantages:
- Catering for special events can be too taxing for somebody that is not passionate about it. While you may be a talented chef, if the event-organizing aspect of this work is not something that you enjoy, it can end up being stressful.
Special events are just that- special. A small blunder can upset your client on a personal level.
