If you’re planning a buffet or have started your small event management company and want easy tips and fun ideas on how to decorate your catering tables, you have come to the right place.

Be it a formal outdoor dinner or a celebratory brunch; you must make sure that the food is excellent, and so are your catering tables. Continue reading to learn easy tips on ensuring that your catering tables look impeccable and yet the food is placed so that it is easily accessible for the guests.

1. Plan the dishes beforehand. You want to make sure that the table is not overcrowded, so choose platters that are well-suited for your dishes but aren’t oversized.

2. Keep plates at the beginning of the catering table. This would help the guests know where the table begins and avoid congestion.

3. Label dishes. Your guests may have different preferences, so labeling will help them choose. Some may have allergies, so it’s better to also note down important ingredients.

4. Don’t place the table along the wall. Keeping it in the center or away from the wall allows guests to walk, either way, ensuring that it does not get congested.

5. Don’t be scared to add tiny props. For example, if you have a themed party, you can add small props between the dishes that go with your theme. You can also choose the same-colored platters and servers to effortlessly coordinate with your theme.

Just like every other thing, decorating catering tables is a skill that gets better with practice. Until then, use our tips and tricks to decorate your catering tables, and you’ll see that your guests will love it.
