THE OCCASION, UP CLOSE

An evening with 250 places at the table.

Lancaster University’s Winter Ball brought 250 guests to Lancaster Town Hall. Townhouse Catering provided a two-course dinner with waiting staff included, bringing the meal and table service together for the evening.

A menu that included everyone.

All dietary requirements and religious restrictions were catered for. These requirements formed part of the food and service plan for the event, alongside the guest numbers and the agreed dinner time.

4pm arrival. 7.30pm first course.

The team arrived on site at 4pm, with the first course scheduled for 7.30pm. That gave the preparation and service a clear timetable to work towards.

The same attention to a wedding brief.

The same planning approach also applies to wedding food and beverage service: start with the occasion, understand the venue and plan the catering around the people and the schedule.
