The holidays are right around the corner, and in the Bay Area, that means one thing — it’s event season. Corporate teams are already securing dates, venues, and catering for their annual celebrations. If you’re in charge of planning your company’s holiday party, year-end celebration, or client appreciation event, now is the time to act.
At On the Vine Catering, we specialize in full-service corporate catering for companies across the South Bay, East Bay, and Livermore Valley — including past events with Tesla, Stanford University, and Workday. With over 30 years of experience and a reputation for excellence, we know what it takes to create unforgettable holiday celebrations that run smoothly from start to finish.
Why Booking Early Matters
By late October, top caterers, venues, and event rental companies are already filling their December calendars. Companies that wait until November often find themselves scrambling for availability — or settling for options that don’t fully meet their vision.
Booking early means:
- Access to your ideal event date and preferred venue
- Ample time for menu customization to suit your company’s culture and dietary needs
- Smooth coordination of rentals, staffing, and decor
- Peace of mind knowing your event is in expert hands
At On the Vine Catering, we work hand-in-hand with planners to make the process seamless — from menu creation to day-of execution — so you can enjoy the party as much as your team.
