Planner's guide
PART 1: PLANNER INSIGHT
Best For: Corporate events and business functions, wedding receptions and celebrations, private dinner parties and intimate gatherings, nonprofit fundraisers and community events
What planners usually like:
- Seven-day availability with extended operating hours (9 AM–5 PM daily) allows flexibility for event scheduling and consultation meetings without weekend limitations
- Direct communication approach helps clarify specific dietary requirements, presentation preferences, and logistical details before the event
- Full-service food and beverage handling eliminates the need to coordinate with separate vendors for different aspects of catering
Things to clarify before booking:
- Request detailed menu options and pricing tiers upfront, as rates require direct contact—understanding cost structure early helps with budget planning
- Confirm minimum party size requirements, delivery areas within D.C., and whether they provide setup/breakdown services or staffing
- Discuss timeline expectations for menu finalization, final headcount confirmation, and any restrictions regarding outside beverages or dietary accommodations
- Ask about cancellation policies, deposit requirements, and how far in advance bookings need to be confirmed
Common questions
What information should I have ready when calling Susan Gage Caterers to get an accurate quote?
Have your event date, expected guest count, venue location within D.C., meal format preference (plated, buffet, stations), and any dietary restrictions or special requests prepared. This allows them to provide more precise pricing and availability confirmation during your initial conversation.
Do they handle food service and setup, or is it drop-off catering only?
You'll need to confirm their specific service model directly—whether they include service staff, bar service, linens, china, or if setup/breakdown are included. These details significantly impact your overall event budget and logistics planning.
Are there seasonal menu variations or pricing differences for events at different times of year?
Call to discuss whether seasonal ingredient availability affects menu options or pricing. Some caterers adjust offerings based on season, which can influence both cost and menu creativity.
How much advance notice do they require for booking, and what are typical payment terms?
Clarify their booking lead time requirements (especially for weekends and peak seasons), deposit amounts, final payment deadlines, and whether they accept payments via check, card, or electronic transfer to avoid last-minute surprises.
Can they accommodate vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and other dietary restrictions?
While most full-service caterers accommodate dietary needs, confirm their experience level with specific restrictions and whether there are additional charges for specialized menu modifications or separate preparation requirements.
Do they provide bar services, or do I need to source alcohol and a bartender separately?
Clarify whether they handle full beverage service (alcoholic and non-alcoholic), if they have liquor licensing, and whether outside alcohol is permitted. This affects whether you need additional vendor coordination.
