What Professional Wait Staff
Can Do for Your Party

Serving with a smile is our specialty
Just having waitstaff at your event looking freshly pressed and professional, will give your party immense credibility and bragging rights. Your event waitstaff will act as a direct extension of yourself and represent the hospitality you wish to grant to your guests to make them feel right at home.

In addition to this, especially with larger guest lists, the waitstaff can act as your own personal greeting party, welcoming each guest with a smile and a passed hor d'oeuvre or beverage. This immediately sets the tone for the rest of the event with this warm courtesy.

They can help direct the guests to their correct tables if it is an assigned table event, such as a wedding reception or banquet dinner. And they can immediately start taking personal drink orders and making people feel comfortable in the venue or place your party is taking place.

      Selection Criteria for Party Wait Staff

      When selecting your wait staff for a party, you want to look for certain criteria or attributes that they possess to eliminate any problems from the start.

      They should have the following:

      • Vetted Experience - You need proof that they have experience in their field.
      • Warm People Skills - ability to easily and warmly communicate with guests and coworkers
      • Professional Demeanor - Reliable and professional behavior
      • Team Player - Works well and is ready to jump in and help other staff
      • Ability to Multitask - Can juggle more than one responsibility at the same time
      • Food & Beverage Knowledge - Basic wine/beer/liquor knowledge and food knowledge to answer questions by guests to describe menus.
