Shabbos Sheva Brachos in Lakewood
A Shabbos sheva brachos is several meals rather than one: Friday night, Shabbos day, usually a kiddush, and shalosh seudos. Caterers quote each seudah per person and at a service level you choose, from elegant plasticware up to china, silverware and floor-length linen. It is the most involved simcha most families make, and the caterer is booked well before anything else.
What to book
- Kosher Caterers in Lakewood. The main decision. Each seudah is priced per person, and children are usually a few dollars less.
- Simcha Halls in Lakewood. A hall or shul room for the seudos, plus somewhere for the kiddush.
- Dessert Tables & Sweet Tables in Lakewood. A sweet table for the Friday night or the kiddush.
- Simcha Florists in Lakewood. Centerpieces for the seudos, priced per arrangement.
- Simcha Rentals in Lakewood. Tables, chairs and linens when the seudos are at home rather than in a hall.
Worth knowing
- Count each meal separately. Friday night and Shabbos day often have different headcounts, and caterers quote them apart.
- A mashgiach is normally required once china or metal silverware is used, and is charged per meal.
- Several Lakewood caterers run a discounted Shabbos sheva brachos package for families who qualify under a communal initiative. Ask.
