Plan the dates

• Standard orders need about three days. Staffed holiday parties need 14 days.
• A 25% deposit holds the date.
• The balance is due seven days before, after the final count.

Holiday weekends in December fill early. For a longer list of party-ready starters, read our catered appetizers guide. For the occasion page, see holiday party catering. Send us your date and count for a written quote.
