Top Five Ways to Keep Your Wedding Budget Manageable 

  1. Set a budget and stick to it. Things can start adding up pretty quickly, so keeping in mind that more is less in 2008 should help you stay on track.
  2. Set a limit on your guest list. This will ensure you don't over extend your funds. The average wedding cost $100 per person, so by limiting your guest list to 100 people instead of 150, theoretically you could save around $5000.
  3. Skip the five course sit down dinner. It takes more catering staff to prepare and serve a plated dinner, therefore it is more cost effective to have an elegant buffet.
  4. Order a smaller cake. Everyone likes cake but not everyone needs a huge piece. As caterers we are always shock at the amount of cake that gets thrown out at EVERY wedding.
  5. Offer a signature drink instead of a full bar. Limiting your guest selection will maximize you liquor return at the end of the night.

How to choose a great Boulder Caterer 

  • Ask around and get as many recommendations as possible, people love talking about their experiences.
  • Visit the catering company's facility to establish their level of professionalism and to try some food.
  • Make sure you and your caterer have the same ideas when it comes to flavors, spices & sauces.
  • Find a caterer who fit your needs and is willing to go the extra mile. If they're not, chances are you're in for a bad experience!

Eco-Friendly Boulder, Colorado Wedding Tips 

How to cater an environmentally-friendly wedding in Boulder

Environmentally friendly events are the hottest new trend in Boulder Colorado, especially for the 2008 Winter Wedding Season. Those who are interested are willing to pay the few extra dollars it takes to ensure they minimize their impact on the world.

There are a few specific things you can look for when planning an eco-chic event that are still cost effective.

Although some of these ideas are a bit more expensive they are defiantly the way to go for the socially conscious individual.

Consider Savory Cuisines Catering for your Boulder wedding catering!
  • Hire a catering company that participates in recycling programs; after all, a real eco-friendly event start long before the guests arrive.
  • Use organic and locally produced foods which many caterers specialize in these days. Ask your caterer if they use or provide local ingredients.
  • Use real plates and silverware: it is still considered the most sustainable and elegant way to serve your guests.
  • Only use compostable and biodegradable products where paper and plastic is needed.
  • Coordinate a shuttle service for your guests so that instead of having all your guests driving to and from the event, one van or bus can serve as transport.

Boulder catering company goes Green 

Savory Cuisines Catering coordinates Zero Waste events

Our Boulder catering company recently decided to go "green" and has been working with Ecocycle to coordinate ZERO WASTE events.

We've also teamed up with Green Girl Recycling for all of our in house recycling needs, and are thrilled to be doing our part to better the Boulder community.

Although real plates and silverware are the most environmentally friendly way to serve a catered event, we now provide compostable and biodegradable products. We feel this is the new wave of catering and are excited to be on the forefront of this movement.

Clients have shown great interest in participating in this program, especially those who cater several times a day. We encourage everyone with questions to contact us about this new service.
