Yerevan and the rest of Armenia
Why this matters in Yerevan
In Armenia hospitality is less a tradition than a way of life. Weddings, anniversaries and christenings are celebrated generously, with attention to every guest at the table. A trained waiter lets the hosts stay with their guests instead of wondering who needs wine and when the main course should go out.

Questions
What people ask most often
How many waiting staff does an event need?
For a seated banquet, reckon on one waiter to 10–15 guests. A standing reception needs fewer. We work out the exact number once we know the style of service, the guest list and the layout of the room.
How is the fee worked out?
For events we quote per booking: the format, the length of the shift and the number of staff decide the figure. We confirm the team and the price in writing before the date.
Do the staff have a uniform?
Yes. Proper uniform and a tidy appearance are a condition of the job, not a preference. If you have a dress code of your own for the event, tell us in advance.
How quickly can we book waiting staff?
We can move fast, including at short notice. For anything large – a wedding, a conference – it is better to settle the team well ahead.
What if a waiter does not turn up?
We find a replacement straight away. That is our responsibility. Nobody running a wedding should be solving staffing problems on the day.
