I found this question on a Reddit-style website: I thought it was interesting. "Our caterer has asked to be paid before the event. Is this normal? What if they take the money and don't turn up?"

In fact, it would be very unusual for a caterer to provide food and staffing for an event and then wait until afterwards to be paid. Catering requires a huge amount of preparation
