Building Your Team

- Start with LeadershipWe recommend having a Captain, or leader, for our team of servers and bartenders. The captain ensures that everything runs smoothly and can deal with problems as they arise so that you don't have to worry.
- Staff to Serve FoodWhen figuring out the number of party servers for hire, we recommend having one server per ten guests for a sit-down dinner. If you're planning a cocktail party, we recommend two food servers and one busser per fifty guests.
- Staff For the BarWe recommend one bartender per 75 guests for a partial bar. If you are planning on a full bar, we recommend one bartender for fifty guests.
- Be PreparedThe best time to hire wait staff is as soon as you know the date of the event. Ultimately, this tip is to help ensure that you are not stressing about the staff.

Event Captains and Coat Check Attendants
Event captains are crucial to the success of an event whether it's an intimate dinner or a huge affair. The captain ensures all staff members follow the established timeline, coordinates the set up in accordance with the floor plan, and serves as the POC between the front of the house (FOH) staff, kitchen staff, and the event planner or host so the evening flows like a beautifully choreographed ballet.
Exceptional service begins and ends with the details. Our friendly coat check attendants are ready to greet guests as they arrive, check-in and organize their belongings and maintain a smooth flow at their station throughout the event. They're also responsible for setting up the coat check area and ensuring belongings are returned to the proper guest by the conclusion of the event.
