What Makes a Great Caterer?
A caterer can make or break an event, so it’s critical to pick the right one for your needs. Here are five things that make for a great caterer.
#1. Timeliness
Caterers need ample time to create and setup food for your guests. Certain parts of a meal might need to be prepared in order to preserve freshness and taste. A late caterer might be able to make up for their tardiness by skipping some steps along the way, but that leads to poorer quality of meals and an inconvenience to your guests.
#2. Flexible Menu Options
Great caterers provide multiple options to select from to create the best choice for your event. Capable teams will have a large selection that is regularly updated to reflect current tastes and styles. Menu flexibility also extends to special dietary requirements; which great caterers will easily accommodate.
#3. Familiar with your Venue
Superb caterers will be familiar with the venue and how to maximize its specifications. It is the caterers job to handle food preparation and setup and knowledge of the venue makes this all much easier.
#4. Clear Terms
At the end of the day, catering is a transaction best handled under clear terms. You need to know what exactly you are getting for your money and how things are going to be handled come event day.
#5. Experience
Great caterers develop an ability to perform under pressure with experience. The more experience a caterer has, the better suited they are to handle your various needs.

Tips for Hosting a Fabulous Party
Hosting a party can be a rewarding experience, especially when you make it fun for everyone in attendance. Follow these easy tips to ensure your next party is one to remember!
Plan
A great party starts by planning what is going to happen and how you are going to make that possible. The first step is choosing the venue then planning the type, setup and configuration of food, drinks, activities and decorations. It is best to make a timeline and checklist for the details so that you do not get overwhelmed and make sure everything is taken care of before or on the day of the event.
Unless you are conducting an open-invite, send formal invitations four to six weeks before your event to provide time for guests to make adjustments in their schedule. Providing fair notice will ensure the greatest turnout.
Listen to Others
It can be easy to take control during the planning process, but it is helpful to solicit advice from others who are experienced in party planning, and your co-hosts if you are not planning the party alone. A second set of ideas can be useful when thinking of ways to keep guests entertained and how to arrange the flow of activities throughout the party.
Check the Thermostat
Although your party is geared towards your guests having the most fun possible, their comfort should also be a top priority. Wherever you are hosting a party, make sure its cooled or heated to a comfortable temperature. Our bodies generate a lot of heat so be sure to account for this when setting the thermostat if you are having a large party with a room full of people.
If you are interested in either catering or hosting your next event at Club Venetian, contact us to speak to one of our team members or to arrange a tour of our banquet facility.

What You Should Ask Before You Book a Venue
Anytime you are planning an event, you want to make certain things run smoothly. The secret to any successful event is having the right venue. A lot of time and resources go toward putting it together, so it counts to get everything right the first go around. The best method for lining up the right venue is to ask the right questions!
The Basics
First things first, is it available? Instead of waiting until the last moment to nail down a date, ask early on if the venue will be available on the date or time of your choosing. Most venue managers will work flexibly with you to explore every possible option. Since communication in any relationship is key, ask who your main point of contact is and how you can reach them.
You will want to ask yourself if the venue in question is convenient and if guests might have difficulty traveling to attend your event due to construction. What would be the point in hosting an event no one could make? In follow up to this, another critical question is if the location has the capacity to accommodate all of your guests. If you need special equipment, is it available?
Getting Specific
Before you book a venue you will want to ask for a quote to make sure it is within your budget. It can also be useful to ask how long you will have the space and what time it will be available for setup and tear down.
