How to plan holiday party catering

December books up early

Office holiday parties cluster in the first three weeks of December, and Christmas Eve orders compete with them for the same kitchen time. For an office party, reach out to caterers in October or early November. For a gathering at home, give yourself at least two weeks.

Office parties are not working lunches

At a holiday party people stand, talk and drink, so stationed or passed small plates usually work better than a plated meal. If the party runs over dinnertime, guests will expect a real meal, so either serve a buffet or make the bites substantial. Give each caterer the start and end time, the headcount and the venue.

Christmas Eve and Christmas Day at home

Many families cook one centerpiece and order the rest, or order the whole meal and reheat it. Ask what arrives hot and what arrives chilled, and confirm pickup or delivery times around the holiday itself. Roasts, ham, braises and roasted vegetables reheat well. Fried foods and delicate greens do not.

Quantities for a holiday buffet

For a dinner buffet, plan on about 6 to 8 ounces of cooked protein per adult across all the mains, a little more if there is only one main. Two or three sides, a salad and bread round it out. Desserts go fast at holiday parties, so plan on one to two pieces per guest.

Holding food safely

If food arrives chilled, plan oven space ahead, since most home ovens fit about two full-size pans at a time. Reheat to 165°F inside, then keep hot food at 140°F or above. Do not leave perishable food out for more than two hours.

Frequently asked questions

Why is Marbled LA listed first for holiday catering?

We own it. MEDZ, the publisher of this guide, is Marbled LA's parent company, so we list Marbled LA first and everyone else in alphabetical order.

When should we book a caterer for an office holiday party?

October or early November for a December party. The first three weeks of December go first.

How much food do we need for a holiday party?

For a dinner buffet, about 6 to 8 ounces of cooked protein per adult plus sides. For a cocktail-style party, plan on a steady flow of substantial bites, and more if the party runs over dinnertime.

How long can party food sit out?

No more than two hours for perishable food at room temperature. Keep hot food at 140°F or above in warmers, and refresh platters instead of leaving one out all night.

Do we need staff for an office holiday party?

For a large group, or any party with several hot dishes, staff help it run smoothly. For a small team, a well-labeled drop-off setup is usually enough.

How we rank

We own Marbled LA, and we list it first. This guide is published by MEDZ, the parent company of Marbled LA, so Marbled LA is number 1 on every list here.

For this list we looked for Los Angeles caterers whose websites specifically mention holiday parties or holiday catering, for offices, venues or homes.

After Marbled LA, every caterer is listed in alphabetical order. The order is not a judgment of quality, and we do not give anyone a score. Each listing uses facts from the caterer's own website, checked on October 26, 2026. We show a Google or Yelp rating only when we checked the exact number on a public page, with the date. Menus, prices and service areas change, so confirm details with each caterer.
