- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Your quote confirms the full price.

Can I do a taco night myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
