Do you bring extra supplies?

Will you serve food from a caterer?
Absolutely. We are often hired by people who order from a caterer who doesn't provide staff. That's actually how we got our start!

We have uniforms, they are button-up, black collared shirts. Each staff person wears one of those along with black pants and black shoes. If you have a specific request regarding how the staff will be dressed, just let us know.
