Event Catering Common Questions Answered
Below are some of the top questions we receive about event catering at Opulence Entertainment Group:
How much does expert event catering typically cost in Miami?
Pricing for event catering vary widely based on guest count, the type of food and drink service you choose, and how long the event runs. As a rough benchmark, professional event catering in Miami ranges from a per-head price that reflects the quality culinary execution and hospitality. We provide detailed pricing proposals after the initial consultation.
What's the difference between buffet-style and formal seated event catering?
Self-serve catering formats offer people the ability to choose what they eat and graze throughout the evening — ideal for casual or cocktail-style events.

Securing your date sooner also allow our chefs greater flexibility to develop your catering plan.
