Catering Advice for Outdoor Parties and
Events
By Neil H.
Outdoor cateringshould be an
enjoyable experience between caterer and client
when the weather is good, organizing an outdoor event is a good idea
Things to consider Weather
Staff Uniform
Type of Food
WEATHERBiggest factor for any type of
outdoor eventThe weather can change in an
instant
Make it or Break it Situation
A friend hosted a birthday party for his wife a few weeks back. The food was great, the weather was perfect, and there was even a live band. When it started drizzling, the event organizers simply set up tents over our heads and the party went on. It turned out to be just a drizzle and nothing more, thankfully. In this situation, anticipating such circumstances could determine the success of the event.
How to prepare for suddenweather changesAlways have
some canopies and tents
A power generator can be handy in case of emergency
STAFF UNIFORMYou don’t want
your staff to feel cold or seating huddled in a corner just to stay warm during those months when the weather is quite chilly.
Staff Uniform TipsVariety - Consider different fabrics
Keep it light - Choose lightweight uniforms for those warm days while maintaining a professional look at the same time
Layering - Can just add additional layers of comfortable clothing during cold weather
Staff Lounge - Set up a tent as a staff lounge to let the staff cool down especially during long events
TYPE OF FOODNot all food served indoors
translate well to being served outdoors
Food storage should always be considered
You are making great memories with family and friends, and great food will always be part of it
Type of Food TipsOutdoor themes –
consider different like a picnic or a tea party
Avoid serving raw foods - but if it is part of the menu then ensure that the dishes you serve are not exposed to direct sunlight as this can help hasten spoilage
