Wedding venues & banqueting
Food safety for wedding halls & banqueting suites
When you're feeding hundreds of guests, one mistake affects everyone in the room. I help venues get their kitchen, outside caterers and records in order before the EHO walks in.
Who it's for
Wedding halls, banqueting suites, function rooms and the caterers who cook in them.
Fee
from £295

Scope
What the work covers
- Venue kitchen audit
- A Mock EHO inspection of your kitchen, stores and service areas, with a clear written report and action list.
- Outside caterer rules
- A simple set of kitchen rules plus a vetting checklist — hygiene rating, insurance, HACCP and allergen info — before any caterer cooks on site.
- Large-batch controls
- Cooking, cooling, reheating and hot-holding checks built for feeding hundreds of guests at once.
- Allergen handling
- How allergen information is collected, passed to the kitchen and given to guests on the day.
- Records pack
- Event-day temperature logs, cleaning schedules and sign-off sheets that match how your venue actually runs.
Outside caterers
Your kitchen, their cooking, your name
Many venues let outside caterers use the kitchen. If something goes wrong, guests remember the venue — and the EHO will want to know what checks you made.
A short set of kitchen rules and a vetting checklist, used every time, shows you took food safety seriously and keeps the standard the same whoever is cooking.
Before the visit
Know what the officer is looking for
If you have not had a full inspection before, the guide walks through the visit in order: what they check, what they ask your staff, and what can follow it.
