Party Tip #2 - Food is Important

When planning a party have a really good think about the food - whether it's gorgeous canapes, roast beef rolls, noodle boxes, a full sit down dinner or casual BBQ, good nosh always goes down well.

I went to a Russell Blaikie (Must Wine Bar) event at Emu Point Cafe recently, and to be honest I haven't stopped talking and thinking about the food!

Having enough food is the key - especially when people are having a few drinks. We have all been to the cocktail style wedding where you are chasing the waitress around in hunger - there is nothing worse!

For DIY catering, Albany Party Hire can provide bain maries (keep food warm), spits (rotating for a whole beast or rack for roasts, vegies etc), deep fryers, pie warmers, chocolate fondues, coolrooms etc to help feed your guests.

A cupcake stand full of luscious individual creations is always a winner for dessert.

Using a reputable catering company is also a great option - the host isn't slaving over a hot stove and everyone can relax. I think it is definitely true that food also tastes so much better when prepared by someone else! The Great Southern is blessed with some fantastic caterers - Terroir & Table, Kookas Catering and Sharp Infusion to name a few.

In either case, Albany Party Hire can provide cutlery, crockery and glassware to complete your requirements in delivering food to your guests.
