Seasonal Backup
Seasonal Backup is a practical private-dining term that gives hosts and the service team a shared, practical definition before the event.
Context
It is useful before service because it gives the host, chef and service team one shared reference instead of leaving an important decision implicit. It is a planning concept, not a promise of one fixed package.
Example
For a villa dinner, the host and chef can confirm the seasonal backup in writing, note any open questions and update it if the guest count, menu or site conditions change.
