The
Entrepreneur Club presents HOW TO CATER A WEDDING: Planning, Costing, Execution and Feedback. Join us for an informative set of meetings before and after a catered wedding in May 2009. We will discuss contracts, planning, costing, menu design, staffing and other items of interest for the pre-event meeting and offer a summary of costs, labor and satisfaction in the follow up meeting as well as feedback from the bride. This will be a valuable opportunity to learn the ins and outs of catering a small wedding of approximately eighty guests.
