For planners, venues and organisers

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

Should I cook it myself?
