We had a food tasting before our wedding, and it came as a surprise. We had emailed our preliminary menu beforehand. We arrived at the restaurant, met the banquet girl and the chef, and sat down. We thought we were coming to simply discuss the details. Then, one by one, samples of everything on our menu started coming out for us to try. I feel kind of dumb admitting this, but I had no idea this was a tasting! And now, I can’t imagine paying someone $3500 without a tasting! Here’s the skinny (so to speak) on tastings:

·         Tastings let you try dishes prior to the actual event, spend time with the caterer, and discuss your likes and dislikes.

·         Tastings also let you see the presentation style, and discuss the little procedural details.

·         Tastings let you offer feedback—which the caterer values!

·         Tastings also let you judge the chemistry between you and the caterer.
