Vegan Catering Planning Checklist for Oceanfront Events

Confirm loading access, elevator windows, and room-entry policy before finalizing item counts. Oceanfront venues vary widely on delivery protocol.

When access details are unclear, catering timelines become less reliable regardless of menu choice.

For lunch events, plan about 1.2 mains per guest. For late-night or post-activity events, plan 1.4 mains per guest with stronger side coverage.

Split orders across two main formats to avoid one item running out too early.

Request delivery 30 to 45 minutes before first service so setup, labeling, and final quality checks can happen without rush.

Name one point person for updates and day-of changes to keep communication clean.
