The money already landed; the receipt is how you show what it bought. Jobs that involve Wedding breakfast — 3 courses, 80 guests are awkward to reconstruct from a card statement alone. One PDF with dates, names, and line items saves you both the hassle later.

Frequently asked questions
What should a catering receipt include?
Include the event date and venue, menu agreed (courses, dietary options), guest numbers, staffing, equipment hire, and any additional charges such as overtime or corkage. Show total amount received.
How should caterers handle receipts for large events with multiple payments?
Issue a receipt for each payment — initial deposit, interim payment, and final balance. Each receipt should show the total contract value, amount previously paid, and this payment, so there's a clear running record.
Do caterers need to include allergen information on receipts?
Allergen information should be provided separately in writing before the event. A receipt can reference that this was provided (e.g. 'Allergen matrix provided 15 March 2026') but doesn't need to list allergens itself.
