Planner's guide
TUXEDOS & TENNIS SHOES CATERING - EVENT PLANNER GUIDE
PART 1: PLANNER INSIGHT
Best For: Corporate events and business gatherings, Casual-to-formal mixed celebrations, Seattle-based events requiring weekday coordination, Medium-sized events with customizable catering needs
What planners usually like:
- Weekday availability during standard business hours makes scheduling consultations straightforward for working professionals planning corporate functions
- Local Seattle presence eliminates the need to coordinate with out-of-area vendors, reducing communication delays
- Flexible approach to both formal and casual events suggests adaptability to different event styles and client preferences
- Direct phone contact allows planners to discuss custom menu options and specific dietary requirements before committing
Things to clarify before booking:
- Confirm minimum guest count requirements and whether pricing scales differently for smaller versus larger events
- Ask about their weekend availability for Saturday/Sunday events, since posted hours show closure on weekends—some caterers maintain flexibility for special requests
- Verify what's included in catering packages (staff, rentals, setup/breakdown time, bar service) versus what requires separate coordination
- Discuss timeline requirements for menu selection, final headcount confirmation, and any seasonal menu limitations
Common questions
How far in advance should I book Tuxedos & Tennis Shoes Catering for my Seattle event?
Contact them directly at 206-932-1059 to confirm their booking timeline, as this varies by season and event size. Most catering services recommend booking 4-8 weeks ahead for corporate events, though availability may be tighter during peak seasons (May-October in Seattle).
Do they handle both food and beverage service, or just catering?
Their website at tuxedosandtennisshoes.com will detail their full service offerings. It's worth confirming whether they provide bar service, non-alcoholic beverage stations, and whether rentals (tables, linens, serviceware) are included or coordinated separately.
What if my event needs to happen on a weekend?
Since they're officially closed Saturday and Sunday, contact them at 206-932-1059 to ask about exceptions or special arrangements. Some catering companies will accommodate weekend events by special request, so it's worth asking about your specific date.
How do they handle dietary restrictions and custom menu requests?
Call during business hours (Monday-Friday, 9 AM-5 PM) to discuss menu customization, vegetarian/vegan options, gluten-free requirements, and allergen protocols. Having your guest count and dietary breakdown ready will help them provide accurate guidance.
Are there volume discounts if I'm planning a large corporate event?
Pricing is custom-quoted based on event size, location, and menu selections. Request multiple quotes for different guest counts to see how pricing scales, and ask if they offer package deals for corporate clients planning multiple events.
What's their service area within the Seattle region?
They serve customers across Seattle from their Airport Way South location. Confirm whether they have delivery fees for events outside Seattle proper or at venues requiring travel time (like events in Bellevue, Tacoma, or surrounding areas).
