Everything you need, nothing you don't
Five tools that cover the whole event.
From first enquiry to final invoice — the parts a small events team actually needs, without the enterprise bloat.
Customers
A simple CRM for every client and lead — contact details, event history, notes and follow-ups in one place.
Event Calendar
Day, week & month views with conflict warnings.
Proposals
Branded quotes with menus & packages in minutes.
Contracts & Invoices
Accepted proposal → contract → tax-ready invoice.
Banquet Event Orders
Clean, printable BEOs so your kitchen and floor team know exactly what every event needs — timing, headcount, menu and setup on one sheet.
It all connects.
Customer → calendar → proposal → contract → invoice → BEO. Each step flows into the next, so you never re-type the same details twice.
How it works
From enquiry to invoice, in three steps.
1
Capture the booking
Add the customer, drop the event on your calendar. Everything about that event lives in one record from day one.
2
Send proposal & contract
Build a branded proposal, get it accepted, convert it straight into a contract and invoice — no re-typing.
3
Run the event
Print the BEO for your team, track the payment, close it out. Clean records, happy clients, paid invoices.
Proposals & contracts
Quote it, sign it, done.
Drag in menus and packages, set the headcount, and LightCater builds a clean proposal your client reviews in their browser.
When they say yes, it becomes a contract and an invoice automatically — same numbers, no copy-paste, no errors.
- Branded, client-ready proposals
- One-click convert to contract & invoice
- Track deposits & balances
Banquet Event Orders
Your kitchen's single source of truth.
Every confirmed event generates a clear, printable BEO — timing, headcount, menu, room setup and special notes on one sheet.
No more chasing details across emails and sticky notes. Your team shows up knowing exactly what to do.
