AUXILIARY EVENT SERVICES
Optional Professional Support, Coordinated Around the Cuisine
CATORI is a chef-owned, food-first private chef company. When an event needs more than cuisine and service, trusted specialists may be added to support the menu, property, timeline, and client experience.
One Point of Coordination
A Wider Network of Talent
Finding separate professionals is only the beginning. Their schedules, responsibilities, access needs, equipment, setup, and timing must also fit the event.
CATORI’s preferred-provider approach helps connect these moving parts to the larger plan.
Flexible Provider Model
Services are recommended according to need and may be provided by qualified affiliates or independent specialists. Availability, credentials, insurance, pricing, and responsibilities are confirmed as part of the planning process.
Professional Support May Include
Additional Service Professionals
Servers, dish and utility support, materials coordination, and event-floor leadership selected according to the service plan.
Beverage Professionals
Appropriately licensed bartenders, mixologists, sommeliers, or other beverage professionals coordinated through qualified providers when required.
Entertainment
Live musicians, DJs, and other approved performers selected to complement the tone and timing of the event.
Photography & Production
Photographers, audio visual support, lighting, staging, and production teams aligned with the event schedule and setting.
Structures, Furniture & Equipment
Tents, tables, chairs, specialty furniture, staging, backdrops, and event equipment sourced according to availability and property requirements.
Transportation & Logistics
Materials transportation, commercial van arrangements, load-in, setup, load-out, and other logistical support for larger or more complex events.
Designed to Work Together
Cuisine remains the foundation. Auxiliary Event Services may be added alongside Private Chef Services and Event Design & Management when additional professionals, equipment, production, or logistical support will strengthen the experience.
