Professional catering is a great way to make your baby shower or gender reveal party a success. When you don’t have to worry about shopping, prepping, presenting or refreshing the food, you can relax and enjoy the festivities. And Ranch Events would love to help you plan this special event.
Although you should always base your food menu on the specifics of your event – time, location, theme, budget – these ideas will help make your event as smooth as it is memorable.
By offering one- or two-bite finger foods, you accomplish several helpful objectives. You eliminate the need for plates and flatware – reducing both your cost and the amount of trash your party creates.
The concept of Micro-Weddings (it’s like the fun-sized mini versions of my favorite candy bars!) is nothing new. But, in the aftermath of Covid-19, it may just be the newest trend in nuptials.

Over the past decade Micro-Weddings have been steadily growing in popularity. Couples cite many reasons for choosing a smaller celebration – from economics to just wanting a more intimate experience. Now you can add government restrictions on gathering and traveling as reasons to consider this option.

You’ve picked a date, found a venue, booked the band and now it’s time to turn your attention to the food. Perhaps you’ve already selected a caterer or maybe you’re trying to decide between your top two or three and you’re wondering when or even if you should ask for a tasting. In most cases, answer is, YES! Food is the most expensive line item on any event budget, and for many, the most important.
The Tasting isn’t just an important step in the process it is also, unequivocally, the most fun. Whether you are scheduling a tasting with your selected caterer to try to zero in on a final menu or are visiting a handful of caterers to help you select the perfect fit for your taste and budget, here are some dos and don’ts to help you get the most from your experience.
