Every planner knows that successful events are all about the details. Of course, the venue is crucial. But if you host your gala in Buckingham Palace and the food is bad, what are your guest going to remember? (Okay, maybe they’d remember the queen, but that bad corn would stick in their minds long after it got stuck in their teeth.) Whether it’s your lunch or your linens, the tent or the torts, the blooms or the booze, when you get the details right, everything comes together flawlessly.
The best caterers serve up a mouthwatering menu that is sure to please. Look for a caterer who not only knows food, service, and presentation, but is familiar with what’s trending--from farm to table, food trucks to sweet botanicals, artisan cheeses to chocolates. Why not sample something from one of these Iowa Caterers:
A local favorite, this popular caterer offers a wide range of menu choices from lunch buffets (chicken marsala, pot roast, herb roasted pork) to dinner buffets (glazed ham, turkey, prime rib) and everything in between. Offering catering clients a selection of cheese cakes, bars, brownies, and more is what makes Great Caterers such a sweet choice.
