It's All About Presentation- Holiday Catering with Disposables

November 29, 2011 9:00 AM

A big part of pulling together all of the elements of holiday affairs is Planning (with a capital P!), and caterers, of course, are the ultimate planners. Everything in our business has to work in synch. A beautiful table, often the focus of the event, takes definite planning and forethought. This season when you are planning table settings for a holiday event, think disposable tableware for unmatched elegance and practicality.

Disposable Tableware for the Holidays

It's All About Presentation- Holiday Catering with DisposablesThe holidays are, in fact, a particularly good time to use disposable dinnerware and disposable tableware. So many events at this time of the year are off-site, and disposables definitely cut down on clean-up time and also avoid breakage. From disposable glasses, such as champagne flutes, wine glasses, and parfait cups for dessert, to disposable serving bowls in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, disposables offer a great way to add pizazz to your tables. Other disposables that are attractive and handy are disposable cocktail shakers and ice buckets. All of these quality disposables offer strength, as well as beauty. Consider mixing in some of these peripheral items, even when you don’t choose to do a completely disposable affair.

Table settings create the ambiance for the event. You can set the proper atmosphere by choosing just the right combination of ingredients—place settings, table coverings, glassware, center pieces, etc. This is where the caterer’s creativity comes into play. In consultation with your clients, you can create table settings that reflect their personality, while injecting your own ideas of beauty and practicality.

So be creative and plan around disposables this holiday season. Judicious use of disposables will help you create tables with a presentation that is sensational and that will wow your clients. Happy holidays!
