For caterers and private chefs selling events. Menus by occasion, capacity and logistics answered upfront, and a quote request that captures date, headcount and budget in one pass.
Organise sample menus by event type (weddings, corporate, private dinners) with per-head from-pricing, show real event photos rather than plated stock, and make the quote form collect the four facts you always ask first: date, venue, guests, budget.
Nobody books catering from a price list. They are trying to work out whether you can handle their date, their headcount and their venue, and every enquiry that arrives without those three facts costs an email round trip.
Wedding, corporate lunch, private dinner and funeral catering are different products with different expectations, even when the kitchen output overlaps. Splitting them lets a visitor recognise themselves immediately rather than translating a generic list.
Date, headcount, venue and budget in one form turns a vague enquiry into a quotable job. It also filters the enquiries that were never going to convert, which is worth more than the extra contacts a shorter form would collect.
Minimum numbers, how far you travel, whether you bring staff, what you need from the venue kitchen. These are the questions that decide the booking and they are almost always buried in a reply rather than published.
The enquiry and diary side is set up as described in set up bookings, and the booking website builder covers what it can do once your dates are in it.
Yes - you can start building and customizing the Catering & Events template for free. The Online Booking features need a paid plan (included in Starter), and the 14-day Starter free trial covers everything in this template.
It comes with 4 ready-made pages: Home, About, Services, Contact.
It is set up for Online Booking, Gallery. Those are built in rather than add-ons, so they work from the moment the site is created.
It arrives with 2 bookable services (Menu tasting, Event consultation), so you are editing a working business rather than filling in an empty layout. Replace the demo content with your own as you go.
