Shaken and Stirred:
Juggling, fire, and boos: What more could you want? Flare bartending has always been a hit at pool-side parties and hospitality engagements looking to add a splash of glamour in their vodka martini and recently, flare has become increasingly popular even for small scale office parties and private events.

Take It Outside:
The latest big trend we’ve noticed is how much corporate events are taking it outside! Our outdoor picnic game show is awesome for competitive, active employees of companies who love being outdoors.

Goo-Goo Gourmet:
Everyone loves an elegantly plated party platter. Creative food plates are key for a deliciously festive event. Recently, we’ve noticed in a trend: Ironically Kid-Themed parties for the Corporate Adult audience. Our favorite part is the gorgeous plating of finger foods. (Does this look like kid’s food to you?) And as part of our team building game show, we have a Baby-Bottle drinking competition--It’s not milk in those bottles ;)

Catering can be a challenge-- Inevitably, you find yourself left with enough food to serve 100 guests after serving a party for 50 people. Of course it's always better to overestimate and make sure your guests are well fed, rather than undershoot, but we also want to make sure those leftovers are minimized and don't go to waste!

As a rule of thumb, we guestimate 1.5 servings of food for every 1 person is a good call. And estimate that each guest will consume 2-3 gallons of beverages.
To the right: You'll find a super duper helpful infographic that breaks this down even further.

Of course--You will still likely be left with some leftovers. But that's okay! You can visit Feeding America online to search local food banks by area code that will take your left over catering!
