Vendor Viewpoint – Biagio Events and Catering
Biagio Events and Catering swung by the blog to discuss everything their amazing property has to offer to couples looking for a unique venue with the perfect spot to say “I do!”.
How have you been able to help your couples during Covid-19?
This has been a very emotional time for all of our events. But we understand that we all are being affected by this and we made the decision immediately to postpone our events that needed to be or have chosen to do so. We also offered the option to use funds towards catering or other events in the future with no restrictions as far as time frame. We made the decision to also have our staff available from the start of Covid-19 so they never feel a lapse in communication. Emails have been open and phones on!
What are your safety & social distancing implementations for upcoming weddings & events at Belvedere?
We are implementing multiple procedures for the safety of all guests and staff including: limiting seating to 6-10 guests per table; face masks when not seated at a table; continuous cleaning of the space including but not limited to bars, door handles, chairs, etc.; concierge buffet service- attendant at buffets to serve guests to limit the number of hands at the buffet; plated meals whenever possible; consistent changing of clean serving utensils; masks on all employees during meetings and events; hand sanitizer stations strategically placed; appropriate signage hung for all to see.
