Websites for wedding caterers
Web design for wedding caterers: £249.99 to build, then £49.99 a month, no minimum term. Couples book eighteen months out and compare five suppliers. Be the easiest to shortlist.
Wedding catering is chosen a long way ahead by a couple assembling a list of suppliers, usually in one evening, from whatever they can find and understand quickly.
They are checking availability on a date, a plausible price per head, and whether your food suits the wedding they are imagining. Anything that cannot be established quickly gets dropped from the list.
What your customers want answered
- Are you free on our date
- What does it cost per head, realistically
- What styles do you do — sit down, sharing, informal
- Do you provide staff, crockery, bar and everything else
- Have you worked at our venue
Name the venues you have worked atCouples search for their venue by name, and a caterer who has worked there already removes a whole layer of logistical risk. It is the single most effective content a wedding caterer can publish and it is easy to build up over time.
No date availability step
The first question is always the date, and if answering it needs an email exchange the couple will move on. A form that captures the date first is worth more than any gallery.
Menus and styles of service
Couples want sample menus, styles of service such as plated, sharing or buffet, and how dietary needs are handled. Photos of your own food at real weddings sell better than stock images.
Tastings, venues and pricing
Explain tastings, the venues you work at, staffing, equipment and how pricing per head works. An enquiry form with date, venue and numbers saves back-and-forth.
On the day itself
Couples want to know the day will run smoothly. Explain your staffing levels, when the team arrives, how you work with the venue and toastmaster on timings, and how you handle delays to speeches or photos.
Mention evening food such as hog roasts, pizza or grazing tables, canapés for the drinks reception and children's menus. Say how leftover food and clearing up are handled.
