Whether you are planning a summer wedding or a spring business gala, you have only a limited amount of time to arrange all the details. Event services such as event venues, catering, and florists only have so much time and capacity in their schedule, so it’s essential not to wait until the last minute.

Here at Piguet’s Catering, we are already filling up for Spring and Summer events. We are pleased that so many want to enjoy our food during their special event, but a full calendar means that we often can’t take reservations close to the event.

Here are a few reasons you should be making your Spring and Summer catering reservations now:

High Demand for Catering Services

As we already mentioned, our reservation books are already getting full and we are confident the same is true for most catering companies. Spring and Summer are peak seasons for weddings, graduations, corporate events, and outdoor gatherings. If you wait to book your caterer, you may just miss out or not be able to reserve them for the date you want.

Better Menu Selection

At Piguet’s Catering, we have many popular dishes. Booking ahead allows you to choose from a wider variety of menu options before popular dishes get limited due to high demand or seasonal ingredient shortages. It also makes sure that we have plenty of time to order the food if it’s not grown here locally in Northeast Oklahoma.

More Time for Customization

We pride ourselves in creating a custom menu for each client. Planning early gives you the flexibility to personalize your menu, accommodate dietary preferences, and coordinate with other vendors for a seamless event experience. Giving us plenty of planning time means we can have more conversations to make sure we get it exactly right.

Lock in Pricing

As you may have noticed, when grocery store shopping lately, food costs can fluctuate. Caterers often have to adjust their prices as demand increases. Booking early can help you lock in current rates and avoid last-minute price hikes.

Stress-Free Planning

Doing anything at the last minute causes unnecessary stress. Hiring your catering company well in advance reduces last-minute stress and allows you to focus on other aspects of your event, ensuring a much better experience for everyone. It also allows you more time to share details with your attendees so they can plan for your event accordingly.

Venue (and other vendor) Coordination

Whether or not you choose a specific theme or just want the event to have a special “feel,” your catering will likely be the biggest aspect of setting that tone. Being able to coordinate with the venue and other vendors to make the theme cohesive is vital. The quicker you can get your catering scheduled, the easier it will be to help all the details fall into place.

Can we help you with your Spring or Summer event? Large or small, we would love to create a custom menu complete with custom cocktails to make your event the perfect memory for your guests.
