What planners usually like:
- Extended daily hours (8 AM–8 PM) provide flexibility for morning events, afternoon functions, and evening celebrations without last-minute scheduling stress
- Clear communication focus means fewer misunderstandings about headcount, dietary requirements, and service expectations—critical for catering logistics
- Local presence in Edinburgh means shorter setup times, familiarity with venue layouts, and reliable delivery without distance-related complications
Things to clarify before booking:
- Confirm minimum guest count requirements and whether pricing scales differently for smaller versus larger events
- Verify what's included in their service (staffing, equipment rental, setup/breakdown, bar service) versus what costs extra
- Ask about their flexibility with custom menus, dietary accommodations (vegan, gluten-free, allergens), and whether they work with client-provided ingredients
- Establish timeline expectations—how far in advance do they need final headcounts, and what's their cancellation/modification policy?
