Frequently Asked Questions
Hard to say and we’d have to have a quick chat to be sure. Email us to discuss your event, and we’ll make a recommendation on how many staff you need for your event to go smoothly. As a quick reference: 1 wait staff for 20 guests max for a sit down dinner, 30 guests for a buffet style service, 40 guests for a canapés reception.
15 days is the minimum recommended. Ideally, you should book 4 to 5 weeks in advance. Even then, during our busy times this could be too late. In short, you should book as early as possible. However, small dinner party events and house parties can be staffed on short notice.
The wait staff can assist with the setup of the event space, they will serve food and drinks and they can clear and cleanup before they leave. Relax and enjoy the party. Our staff has it under control.
For small events where a couple of waiting staff only are required, you don't. For larger events, we recommend that you do. All of these professionals can run your event from start to finish while you relax and entertain your guests. All you have to do is give us a timeline, and we’ll do the rest.
If applicable, travel charges for each event will be confirmed at enquiry stage. You will receive a written formal quote confirming all charges as soon as you send your event details.
