A catering agreement sample to review with an attorney
A catering event needs an agreement about the food, the service and the conditions at the venue. This downloadable outline gives you questions and blank fields to take to a qualified attorney. It is not a state-specific agreement, and Microtra does not make contracts.
This is a sample, not legal advice. Have a qualified attorney in your state review any contract before you use it.
Inside the downloadable sample
- Parties and event
- Menu and dietary requests
- Guest count and changes
- Venue, staffing and equipment
- Price and payment schedule
- Cancellation, postponement and disruption
- Approvals and signatures
The PDF and editable DOCX contain the sample clauses and blank agreement fields. Microtra does not generate contracts.
How to use the template.
- Download the editable DOCX and fill in the event details you already know, leaving uncertain legal terms for your attorney.
- Prepare the menu, guest-count procedure, venue requirements and itemized quote as separate attachments.
- Ask a qualified attorney in your state to review and draft the agreement before you offer it to a client.
- Use your own review and signing process. Keep the signed agreement and approved changes with your event records.
Useful answers.
Is this contract ready to sign?
No. It is a sample outline with placeholders and attorney-review prompts. Have a qualified attorney in your state review the agreement and attachments before use.
Can I create or sign a contract in Microtra?
Microtra does not generate contracts. This page offers local PDF and DOCX downloads only. Use your own legal review and signing process for the event agreement.
Does the sample set a cancellation fee or deposit?
No. It leaves payment and cancellation terms for you and your attorney to agree appropriately. The sample does not prescribe a fee or represent a rule in your state.
