    One of the most important things you’ll need to remember when you plan your wedding is the caterer. This is because the food you serve will be one of the most memorable parts of the reception for your guests. Caterers can be booked up to a year in advance, so it is wise to search one out early. A simple time line for finding a caterer is to start looking for one at 10 months before the wedding. Make sure that you have your caterer booked by 8 months, and you have the menu sorted by at least 6 months before the date.

    Often the best catering companies do much more than you expect. They have the necessary training in food selection and preparation, staging a reception,serving and cleaning up afterwards. Some caterers will offer to decorate the venue for you, hire bar staff and even supply the wedding cake. Other catering firms may only be prepared to serve the food and then clear up.

    If, like me you are searching for private catering in Brighton, keep in mind these things:

    • Find a privatecaterering company with a good reputation whose food you can sample before signing a contract.
    • Make as many appointmens as possible and set up interviews with different catering companies to get the correct one. Some caterers may even give you phone numbers of past customers who were pleased with the caterer’s work.
    • It is not uncommon to find that many reception venues also offer catering services, so when choosing the hall decide whether it has suitable catering and atmosphere for what you are looking for.
    • Check to see what services the caterers will provide other than just the meal (electricity, lighting, tents, tables, linens, chairs, etc).

    Many people forget about the cost of drinks when planning for a caterer. This can really send the price rocketing depending on what you want to serve for drinks:
