The Event Checklist We Use Before Every Celebration

Nothing on an event day should be decided on the event day. A complete guide from the Paradise Catering event team in Faisalabad, written from more than five hundred real celebrations.

Where to start

Begin with three fixed points — your date, your venue and your approximate guest count. Every other decision, from menu depth to staffing and décor scale, follows from those three numbers.

What experienced planners do differently

  • Confirm final headcount seventy-two hours ahead.
  • Walk the venue with the décor and kitchen leads together.
  • Pre-stage crockery counts against the seating plan.
  • Agree a contingency plan for weather and power.

A note on quantities

Under-catering is the single most common regret we hear. Plan for a small buffer above your confirmed headcount, and always separate children's portions from adult portions in your estimate.
