Banquet event order (BEO) template
One sheet per event. Guest counts, timing, menu version, room setup, and sign-off, so kitchen and floor work from the same packet.
No email required. PDF is for print. Word is for filling in.
Same template in Polish: PDFWord
What is on the sheet
Fill the blanks before service. When the menu changes, raise the menu version and print a new revision.
- Event header — name, date, times, room, and BEO revision
- Contacts — client, on-site contact, event manager, kitchen lead, floor captain
- Guest counts — expected, finalized, and prep
- Timing — arrival through the end of service, with an owner for each step
- Menu — version, date and time, dishes, quantities, allergens
- Room and setup — layout, covers, AV, decor, cloakroom, deliveries
- Special requests and restrictions
- Internal notes that stay off the guest copy
- Sign-off — event manager, kitchen, and floor
How to use it
- Fill guest counts and timing first.
- Lock the menu, write the menu version and date, then print for the kitchen.
- When anything changes, issue a new revision and mark the old prints obsolete.
