If you’re not sure how to approach memorable repast planning, here’s how you can gather your friends and family to celebrate life. 

Setting the Tone for  Memorable Repast

The tone is an element in memorable repast planning that cannot be neglected. Your goal should be to foster a tasteful and intimate environment that makes all of your guests feel comfortable while keeping the focus on opportunities for reflection, storytelling, and celebration. That’s where the Four Columns team is helpful. We offer malleable spaces that can be tailored to fit the ambiance you need for your memorable repast planning. 

We have smaller rooms for more intimate gatherings and some larger halls for accommodating all of your extended loved ones. You can rest assured that the Four Columns events team will deliver an inviting backdrop for your most intimate and heartfelt moments.

Making the space feel comfortable is one of the aspects that contributes to an inviting environment. Flowers, photos, and memory boards are just a few things that can make your repast feel more personal for you and your loved ones. 

Crafting the Right Menu with Four Columns Catering 

New Orleans repasts wouldn’t be New Orleans repasts if they weren’t complete with a carefully curated menu of comfort foods. Sharing a meal in remembrance of a loved one plays an important role in your gathering. Four Columns catering services deliver a range of unique catering options that blend local New Orleans tastes with family favorites. 

Don’t forget that with highly customizable menus come highly customizable dishes. If you or your guests require any dietary fixes, we offer gluten-free and vegetarian options to meet any dietary restrictions.

Planning for Smooth Flow and Comfort 

A smooth flow of events is a vital aspect of planning a memorable repast. Typically your repast would begin with a gathering of loved ones to greet each other, then service, followed by a meal and reflection. The Four Columns team is equipped with an experienced event coordinator prepared to craft a well-planned timeline for each phase of your repast.

Our event coordinators are top-tier service providers. Well-versed in planning memorable repasts, your guests are sure to feel absolutely cared for from start to finish. Our Four Columns event planners will manage the details of the repast, whether they’re ushering guests to seats or assisting with any other personal elements of the gathering so you can focus on what matters.

Choosing the Right Venue Layout 

When you’re planning your memorable repast, your physical venue layout will be just as important as your décor. Whether you’re looking at the seating arrangement or implementing any quiet spaces for family members to share memories, one of the goals should be to make sure your guests feel welcomed and comfortable. 

Repasts usually vary in size, and the Four Columns event spaces are adaptable to each. We deliver a level of flexibility paired with our professional guidance will help your memorable repast go as smoothly as possible.
