Feastivities has established and maintained excellent working relationships with the facility directors in the area. Most of the sites at which we cater have historical and cultural significance. We respect the pride of place that these venues engender in the community. We also recognize that cooperation is one of the keys to any successful partnership and when we cater an event, we act as partners with the facility to guarantee a successful event. We have devised procedures which provide venue staff information prior to the event and which give them feedback afterwards.
Many of these venue relationships have been developed over a number of years and have allowed Feastivities to gain insight into buyer preferences and needs for events in the greater Philadelphia area.
