The Do’s and Don’ts of Throwing a Corporate Event

From a pre-wedding celebration to an office holiday party, throwing a corporate event requires plenty of planning and preparation, especially because plenty of people are typically involved. Here are a few tips to help you plan a great corporate event.

Generate excitement for the corporate event by telling the employees what to expect. Make sure that you plan a fun event and that your employees will know that they will have a good time. That way, they can look forward to the event. Otherwise, your employees might not be interested in attending. While it can be common to throw events for specific employees or departments, it can be nice to include all of your employees in a fun, corporate event. The more people you involve, the more involved your employees will feel and they will truly feel like they are part of a team when you invite them to the company’s corporate events.

Make sure you pick a date for the event that works for everyone involved. If you throw the event the night before a huge deadline, then many employees might feel like they should not attend the event. Make the day and time of the event convenient for all of the guests.

Even though this is a corporate event, don’t forget to have fun. If you can’t loosen up, then how will your employees be able to relax? Remember to find the perfect balance of professionalism while encouraging everyone to relax a little bit. Barbeques are informal and a great way for your employees to enjoy a day at the office. Contact Just Right Catering to help you set up a barbeque feast.

One way to get your employees to have a good time is by providing great food and drinks. The type of food you serve will largely depend on the type of event that you are planning. For a breakfast meeting, consider serving your employees our seasonal fruit platters and pastries or a full, warm breakfast of sausage links, scrambled eggs, and waffles. Don’t forget to energize your employees with our hot coffee and tea. Here at Just Right Catering we can help you plan your corporate event.

For a lunchtime meeting or event, you can feed your employees wraps, sandwiches, and salads that are freshly prepared by our chefs. We offer a wonderful selection of wraps, open-faced sandwiches, pasta salad, and much more. Our company also aims to accommodate a wide range of dietary needs. As a result, we offer vegetarian items that are absolutely delicious. We offer warm, heartier lunch options as well. For a real, corporate event where a celebration is happening, you will want to turn things up a few notches. You will be able to choose from a wide variety of delicious appetizers and platters for your employees to enjoy. If you prefer a formal, seated corporate event, then we can do that too. Your company will definitely enjoy one of our delicious buffet menus.

Whether the event is casual or formal, your guests will start talking, mingling, and having fun with the help of a few delicious bites of catered food. Our team at Just Right Catering can provide you and your employees with the perfect food that will be the highlight of your company’s next corporate function.
