QUICK NOTES TO ORGANISING A CONFERENCE

1. Cloth napkins are sometimes preferred to paper for V.I.P. Guests
2. Check whether there are any special requirements e.g. Vegan, vegetarian, etc
3. It is a good idea to have a room big enough to allow a buffet table set up seperately so as not to disturb delegates or even a seperate room for the buffet. If a hot meal is provided consider the distance between kitchen and dining room.
4. Meetings or conferences can run over, sometimes by upto an hour. This can cause problems for hot sit-down meals and hot buffets. If possible, advise the chef half an hour before you are going to be ready to eat so the food doesn't spoil.
5. Are orange juice and mineral water required. Will there be wine with the meal?. Will there be tea and coffee breaks.
6. Make sure drinks are refrigerated. Warm wine or orange juice is not very palatable.
7. Waitress service, plate or silver service? Discuss with caterers.
8. Circulate menu to guests beforehand in case of food dislikes.
9. Can the facilities cope with the number of guests?. Do the facilities work?. (Cookers, boilers, heaters, etc).
10. If space is cramped for guests on a cold buffets, ask about wine clips to save space, consider the choice of food. Small dainty food is the best because it is easier to manage while talking to other delegates. We can tailor buffets to your needs.
