From Logistics to Layout: How Lavish Makes Large-Scale Events Easy
Planning a large-scale event in Singapore—be it a seminar, awards ceremony, product launch, or gala dinner—means more than just booking a space and choosing a menu. It means coordinating timing, managing foot traffic, styling service stations, handling dietary needs, and keeping everything running on a tight schedule.
In short? It’s a lot. But it doesn’t have to be.
At Lavish, we’ve catered for hundreds of large-scale events across corporate, government, and private sectors. We don’t just deliver food—we deliver a full catering infrastructure that makes your event look and feel seamless. Here’s how we make big events feel beautifully simple.
It Starts with Expert Planning (and Backup Plans)
Behind every smooth event is a solid strategy. Lavish assigns an experienced catering coordinator to each large event, who works closely with your planners, venue contacts, and AV teams. We walk you through:
Timeline mapping for food prep, delivery, and service
Menu design based on pacing, flow, and event milestones
Space planning for buffet lines, live stations, and seating
We even account for venue limitations like lift access, prep areas, and power sources, and build backup routes for delivery to avoid delays during setup.
Beautiful Layouts That Support Flow
“Feeding 300+ guests? It’s all about how the room moves.”
Lavish designs your layout for visibility, efficiency, and visual impact. Our buffet catering stations are spaced strategically to prevent bottlenecks, and our styling team ensures the spread enhances (not clutters) your space.
Need designated zones for different departments, client tiers, or VIPs? We’ll create subtle visual distinctions to support that—without drawing awkward lines.
Styling That Matches the Scale
Big doesn’t mean bland. Our thematic buffet styling scales up beautifully—so your event still looks personal, polished, and on-brand.
From corporate formality to festive colour bursts, Lavish provides:
Elegant food labelling and printed menu cards
Matching tableware and linens
Coordinated colour palettes and floral accents
Dessert tables and styling that double as décor
We also offer customisation options like logo toppers, brand-coloured napkins, and signage that reflects your event identity.
Synchronised Service for a Smooth Experience
For events with 100+ guests, timing is everything. Lavish ensures:
Staff-to-guest ratios match your event type
Replenishment is constant and unobtrusive
Waste is discreetly cleared to maintain appearance
Dietary-specific items (e.g. vegetarian, no onion/garlic) are clearly marked and easy to access
Whether you’re running a 2-hour cocktail event or an 8-hour seminar with multiple meal breaks, we sync our service to your programme—down to the minute.
Feeding Guests Across Multiple Zones? No Problem.
We’re frequently called upon to cater events that span floors, ballrooms, or breakout rooms. For these, we deploy multiple kitchen crews, delivery routes, and staggered service schedules to ensure:
Every station is filled on time
Every zone gets equal attention
Food arrives hot, fresh, and on-brand
Pair this with our bento catering for attendees who may not be part of the main dining area or prefer a meal served to their seats.
Don’t Just Feed the Crowd—Impress It
Large-scale catering is about more than quantity. It’s about creating a unified experience that respects your guests, represents your brand, and supports your event goals.
With Lavish, you get a team that thrives under pressure, anticipates what’s next, and delivers not just meals—but moments.
