What to Do Before You Interview a Caterer
At Salt Creek Grille Catering and Events, Tamra and her team make every detail easy and stress free. Keep these points in mind when meeting with potential caterers to minimize stress and maximize your experience.

Know your budget; your catering team can make nearly any dollar amount work, but in order for them to best cultivate a sample menu that fits your desires, they need to know a very close approximation of how much you really want to spend.
Keep a list of your priorities. Salt Creek Grille Catering and Events has created a Wedding Questionnaire to assist you in your planning. It's free - just ask for it!

If there's a time gap between the ceremony and reception, let your Salt Creek Catering team know. With creative planning, they can get the party started early.

Don't set a predictable table; explore new ideas for both the guest tables and buffets.

Don't settle for pre-determined menus every other couple is also reviewing. Salt Creek Grille Catering customizes and personalizes the menu for your wedding using ingredients based on locality and seasonal availability, incorporating the newest trends, themes, ingredients and display design.

Be ready for your caterer to accommodate special diets - many people now have dairy, gluten and other restrictions. Work with a caterer who can adapt on a whim!

Streamline by using caterers who are also event coordinators. Salt Creek Grille Catering can help you arrange every last detail, especially the day of, so that you can enjoy your special day.
