About our Casual Catered Clambake

THERE ARE A NUMBER OF ITEMS you should consider when planning a Casual-style Clambake. We have listed some of these things and some helpful hints to assist you in your preparation.

CHOOSING THE TYPE OF PARTY: Do you really need a Formal Catered event? If you are planning one of our fabulous clambakes as a Reception Dinner after a wedding, or as a dinner for your corporate Directors or major shareholders; as a special anniversary party (50th Anniversary, 75th Birthday, etc.) or something of a similar nature, then by all means, go ahead with the Formal Catered type function.

For most purposes, our clients find the more laid-back, casual, picnic style party a better option, especially if you are bringing strangers together and want to make it more easy for them to intermingle and get acquainted (such as for a wedding rehearsal party).

ONCE YOU HAVE CHOSEN the more relaxed Casual Catered plan, then you DO NOT need to start contacting suppliers on Martha's Vineyard for linens, dinner service, etc. We provide everything necessary for your guests to enjoy our fabulous clambake meal. IF YOU WISH to have a tent and/or tables and chairs, then the suppliers on our recommended list can help you (click on the Recommended Suppliers Button at the bottom of the Home page).

Please remember, if you choose to go with linens, china or glass dishes, glassware, stainless cutlery etc, you party is NO LONGER a Casual event: there is additional hourly charges for all set up and clean up.
