Frequently Asked Questions
Plated dinners range from $70-$150/person, buffets from $50-$100, family-style from $60-$120, and cocktail receptions from $30-$70 per person.
Buffets have lower labor costs but may require more food since guests tend to take larger portions. The overall cost difference is often smaller than expected.
Most weddings offer 2 entree options (typically chicken + beef/fish). Offering 3+ options adds about 15-30% to food costs but improves guest satisfaction and dietary flexibility.
