Gratuities are not itemized in the bill (unless directed to do so by the client), nor are they required. They are, however, graciously accepted by our staff for a job well done. A gratuity of $25-60 per staff member or a percentage of the total is customary. We do not put tip jars on bars for private parties and weddings.

Yes. Not only can we arrange for the rental of the usual party items such as tables, chairs, linens, china, glassware and silverware, but we also have access to fine china, crystal, and specialty linens. We can also arrange for larger items such as canopies, stages and dance floors. We rent them for you without a markup.

Do you provide wine or liquor?
While A Tasteful Affair is not licensed to sell alcohol, we do maintain the necessary liability insurance to serve your guests if you provide the alcohol. We can provide you with recommendations on where to find the best buys and offer suggestions on selections.

Our trained, professional staff are attired either in black and white uniforms or in all black uniforms with long, black bistro aprons. They are professional, neat, and always ready to help!

Am I limited to selections that are on the current menu?
Our menu serves as a guideline based upon our most popular food selections. KR’s Geaux-2 Catering prides itself on letting you, the customer; “customize” your own menu. If you would like to serve something that is not on our current menu, please consult one of our booking managers.

Do I need to pay the service charge and a delivery fee?
No. If you choose a delivery and set-up option, you do not have to pay a “service charge”, only a delivery charge. Equipment pickup is included in that fee. If we stay & serve your event (fully staffed, catered event) there is a service charge.

Anything is possible. Please contact a representative to see if we will cater to your area.
