Caterer Insurance

Coverage conversations for caterers show up the moment a venue packet or client contract asks for proof of insurance. Cover My Confetti helps you understand the ask and points you to Thimble for business insurance built around event work.

Why venues ask

Commercial venues manage their own risk. Requiring vendor certificates is how they standardize load-ins. Expect deadlines tied to BEOs, festival organizer packets, or planner onboarding forms.

Planning notes for caterers

• Kitchen / prep, service staff, and on-site cooking rules
• Food safety practices plus liability proof for venues
• Alcohol service may involve separate host vs vendor responsibilities
