Choosing a caterer is one of the most important parts of making sure your wedding day is amazing. You don’t want your guests left with a bad tase in their mouth because your wedding reception food wasn't good and the catering staff was rude. Here's a few questions to grill your potential caterers with when you are interviewing them. Ask the caterer if they do it full time or just part time to get a sense of their experience, and see if they will let you contact some of their previous clients to find out how the experience was. Ask about the caterers formal training, background, and how many years they have been catering. Make sure to find out the wait staff to guest ratio from the caterer, and ask to sample some of the foods they will be offering. And in order to get an accurate figure of how much you will be spending on the caterer's services, ask which equipment they will provide, and find out if they have any extra fees, such as charges a cake cutting or champagne toast fee? Once you have the answers to these important questions, you'll have a better sense of how to pick your caterer.
