How far in advance must I book staff for my event?

This may depend on the time of year, as holiday seasons and summer months tend to be busier than the rest of the year. However, generally a week's notice should be plenty of notice to find the perfect server(s) to meet your requirements (*more notice is recommended if you require a large number of service staff).

How will I know that my event has been booked?

Once the staff has been booked and all of the details of your event have been arranged, Servers a la Carte will send you a confirmation sheet (via fax, email or post) which will provide you with all of the details you require (including server's name, call-time, uniform, etc.)

Do Servers a la Carte servers / cooks / chefs arrive in uniform?

The standard uniform for servers is either a tuxedo, or tuxedo pants, vest, shirt and bow-tie (depending on your preference). If your event is more casual, and you would prefer that your server not arrive in tuxedo, please let us know, and can arrange for the server to arrive in all-black, or casual black and white attire. Theme costumes may also be arranged.

The standard uniform for a cook / chef is chef jacket and an apron.
