Planner's guide

Get The Cook | Catering & Event Planning - Vendor Guide

Best For: Corporate lunch meetings and business events, Wedding receptions and rehearsal dinners, Private birthday parties and milestone celebrations, Community gatherings and fundraiser events

What planners usually like:

  • Combined catering and event planning services reduce vendor coordination complexity by allowing you to manage food service and logistics through a single point of contact
  • Extended availability (24-hour service Monday-Saturday) accommodates last-minute menu changes, final headcount adjustments, or urgent planning discussions that typically arise in the final week before events
  • Location-based in Miami with established local presence means shorter setup times, better understanding of local venue requirements, and faster troubleshooting if on-site issues arise
  • One-stop approach allows planners to discuss both menu selections and event flow simultaneously, which can improve timing coordination between food service and other event activities

Things to clarify before booking:

  • Request specific menu options, dietary accommodation capabilities, and any service-style preferences (plated, buffet, stations) since descriptions emphasize planning assistance rather than detailing cuisine specialties
  • Confirm staffing arrangements—clarify whether catering pricing includes servers, bartenders, setup/breakdown, and how many staff members are provided based on guest count
  • Understand minimum guest count requirements, event date availability (especially peak season capacity), and whether they have preferred vendor partnerships with Miami-area venues
  • Ask about pricing structure breakdown—determine if quoted prices include rentals (linens, plateware, glassware), service gratuity, or if these are add-on costs

Common questions

How far in advance should I book Get The Cook for my Miami event?

While they offer 24-hour availability, booking at least 2-3 weeks in advance ensures you have preferred menu options and optimal staffing availability. For larger events (100+ guests) or complex catering needs, aim for 4-6 weeks. Contact them directly at +1 877-870-3576 to check availability for your specific date and guest count.

What happens if I need to make menu changes close to my event date?

Get The Cook's round-the-clock availability (Monday-Saturday) accommodates last-minute modifications. However, changes within 48-72 hours may incur additional fees or have limited menu flexibility depending on ingredient sourcing. Always confirm change policies and any associated costs when booking.

Do they handle both the catering AND event planning, or should I hire separately?

They offer combined services, meaning you can coordinate food service and planning assistance through one vendor. This is particularly useful for finalizing timelines and food-service logistics, though you should clarify the scope of "event planning"—whether it covers décor coordination, timeline management, or primarily food-service logistics.

What's included in their catering pricing, and what are typical add-on costs?

Since pricing is customized by contacting them directly, ask for a detailed quote breakdown that specifies: staff/server costs, rentals (tables, linens, serviceware), bar service if applicable, setup/breakdown, gratuity policies, and any equipment fees. This prevents budget surprises.

Are they experienced with specific cuisine types or dietary restrictions?

The vendor description doesn't specify cuisine specialties. Contact them directly to discuss whether they offer cuisines relevant to your event (Latin, contemporary American, vegetarian-focused, etc.) and confirm their experience accommodating allergies, kosher, halal, vegan, or other dietary requirements.

Can Get The Cook work with my chosen venue, or do they have venue restrictions?

Ask directly about their experience with your specific Miami venue—some caterers have preferred partnerships or restrictions based on kitchen facilities, loading access, or past relationships. Confirm they can accommodate your venue's requirements and timeline before finalizing your booking.
