High-quality waiting staff are essential for any event where food and drink service plays an important role. Whether you’re hosting a corporate dinner, wedding, private celebration, gala, awards ceremony, banquet, or high-end hospitality event, the professionalism of your waiting staff can significantly influence guest experience. At Unite Events, we supply polished, experienced, and reliable waiting teams who deliver exceptional service, maintain high standards, and ensure every guest feels valued and well looked after.
Waiting staff are often the backbone of a smooth and enjoyable hospitality experience. Their responsibilities go far beyond carrying plates and pouring drinks — they support the entire atmosphere of your event. Our waiting staff are trained in customer service, table etiquette, food handling, drink service, and event coordination. They understand how to work efficiently under pressure while remaining calm, attentive, and guest-focused throughout the entire shift.
Unite Events provides professional waiting staff for a wide range of occasions, including:
- Corporate dinners and networking events
- Weddings and private parties
- Awards ceremonies and press launches
- VIP dining and hospitality boxes
- Banquets and large-scale catering functions
- Restaurant takeovers and pop-up dining events
- Seasonal celebrations and festive events
Our waiting teams include table servers, food runners, plate clearers, drinks waiters, tray service staff, table hosts, supervisors, and premium hospitality professionals. We match staff to the tone of your event — whether you require a formal, white-glove service style or a relaxed, informal approach.
Every member of our team is trained to deliver consistent, polished service. Responsibilities may include table setup, serving plated meals, delivering canapés, managing drinks service, clearing efficiently, resetting tables, and providing attentive assistance to guests throughout the event. We also supply waiting staff experienced in working alongside caterers, chefs, event organisers, and venue managers to keep service running on schedule.
For luxury or corporate events, presentation is key. Our waiting staff arrive well-groomed, well-presented, and dressed according to your dress code — whether that’s black attire, branded uniforms, formal service wear, or themed event outfits. Professionalism and attention to detail are central to the way we work.
Unite Events understands that hospitality staffing requires a high level of reliability. We provide waiting staff who arrive on time, ready to work, and fully aware of the service expectations and schedule for your event. All staff receive a detailed brief beforehand, ensuring they understand the menu, service style, timings, dietary considerations, and any brand or guest experience guidelines.
Large-scale hospitality events can involve serving hundreds of guests, coordinating complex service flows, and maintaining precision under pressure. Our experienced teams know how to communicate effectively, follow direction from supervisors, and move efficiently through service stages without disrupting the guest experience.
We provide waiting staff across the UK, including London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Glasgow, Bristol, Edinburgh, and Liverpool. Whether you need a small team for an intimate dinner or a large crew for a high-capacity event, Unite Events can scale staffing to your requirements.
Event organisers choose Unite Events because our waiting staff combine warm customer service with operational excellence. They help create an enjoyable dining experience where guests feel welcomed, attended to, and cared for — allowing you to focus on hosting while we handle the hospitality.
If you’re looking for dependable, polished, and guest-focused waiting staff to elevate your event, Unite Events is your trusted hospitality staffing partner.
