The First Communion is a very important celebration for all children. For that reason, when it comes to organizing it, there are certain factors that you should take into account so that this day is remembered with real illusion.
First of all, it should be considered that this celebration is very intimate and familiar, so there will be a wide range of ages among children, parents and grandparents. We must organize something that will be to everyone's liking.
Important factors to consider when celebrating a communion
-
Budget
As in any event, the first thing to do is always to determine how much money you want to invest that day. A good celebration does not have to be big and expensive, on the contrary, it just has to be very special, so that everyone can remember that moment.
The budget varies a lot depending on the type of event you want to do since it will delimit the place, the number of guests and the additional entertainment services you will be able to hire.
Starting from this point, we move on to the second:
-
Banquet venue
Setting the time for the celebration of the mass will determine whether the event revolves around a lunch or an afternoon snack/dinner. The communion celebration usually takes place in the spring, for this reason, we recommend looking for an outdoor location. Many families choose to have the communion banquet at a restaurant or at home. Both options are perfectly valid.
-
Menu
If you decide to celebrate at home because it is more intimate, more pleasant if you have a garden, with no time limit and without the children disturbing other people, in Artigot Catering we offer a wide menu with several options to suit this type of celebration.
Since there are many children present, we usually propose two menus: one for children with simple dishes and one for adults with more elaborate dishes. We adapt to any space and we are able to serve exquisite food in the comfort of your home. The service ranges from cocktail, stations, buffet or seated meal.
And afterwards you can always stay chatting and having a drink from our bar, even if the celebration lasts longer, we can prepare a snack or an informal snack.
All you have to do is tell us what you would like and we will put it into practice, we have been adapting to your tastes and spaces for many years.

Souvenirs for guests
It is a tradition to give a small gift to the guests to remind them of this day. Times have changed and the typical photo of the girl or boy praying is no longer in style, so we recommend you to have a little imagination and go practical.
Depending on your budget, there are many options that can suit you: from scented candles, candies, handkerchiefs, to personalized notepads and mugs. You can go to specialized stores or give them a handmade touch and make them yourself, it all depends on how creative and inspired you feel!

Additional activities - Children's animation
In this celebration your child is the protagonist, and although we are not celebrating a birthday, we must ensure that they are at ease with their guests and have a fun afternoon. You should not rule out entertainment services such as clowns, face painting or bouncy castle and of course you can not miss a Candy Bar, with this you will ensure that children have a great time!
In short, the important thing is that on that big day, your child, family and friends enjoy every moment of the day and leave a beautiful memory.
