How much does wedding catering cost?

When thinking about catering cost , consider drinks, hors d'oeuvres and stations, and the main meal itself. Bar services are quoted per person and pricing often depends on what alcohol you want (more expensive packages include pricier labels). Hors d'oeuvres and stations are also priced per person, with variable costs for more expensive options like lobster rolls. For the main meal, consider what you’d spend per head going out to a restaurant in your area—the cost per person at your wedding will be similar. Keep in mind that plated meals cost more per person than buffets.

When should we book our wedding caterer?

Choosing a wedding caterer is an important decision for many couples—good food can really make an event stellar! It’s best to start researching caterers 10–12 months out , and book around 8 months out. You may not always be able to schedule a tasting before booking your caterer. For many smaller vendors, the effort and expense to put together tastings without a signed contract is prohibitive. In these cases, your tasting will take place after you’ve booked the caterer and will focus on refining menu choices.

At Jeffrey A. Miller, we create catered events that perfectly blend innovative cuisine and extraordinary hospitality in unforgettable settings. We make delicious, delightful food entirely by hand and serve your guests with heartfelt hospitality. And whether it’s a wedding or a corporate gala, our events bring revenue and recognition to support the worthwhile missions of our many partner venues.

“I'm getting married 11/2 at the American Swedish Historical Museum, a JAM venue. I know the wedding itself will be the real test, but so far working with JAM has been a great experience and I am sure the wedding will be just as smooth and delicious. From the beginning, I have found everyone with whom I've spoken at JAM to be extremely responsive, accommodating, and pleasant. Every addition I've wanted to make, even if not in the packet of upgrades, has been immediately priced out (at a reasonable rate!) and accommodated. Every email I've sent has been responded to extremely quickly and thoroughly. Every dish I tried at the tasting in January was delicious and I'm so excited for the menu, which we picked from a ton of interesting and creative options. It was so hard to choose. I'm writing now because I will probably forget to review after my wedding and honeymoon, but at this point, we are under 6months out and still extremely happy that we chose to go with JAM. Bonus points for me- a friend of mine went to a JAM-catered wedding last year and raved about the food. And a restaurant owner friend of my parents told me "you can't go wrong with Jeffrey A Miller."”

I have a passion for hospitality, outstanding service, and changing the reputation of wedding food... it can be memorable and delicious! I have spent over 20 years in gourmet kitchens across the world. When I came to Texas in 2009 I fell in love with Southern cuisine. After many years in luxury hotels across DFW, in 2016 I created Tex-Med cuisine (modern Mediterranean with a Texan twist) which combines the food of my homeland with the flavors of Texas. My wife, Stephanie, and I opened Ferah Tex-Med Kitchen in 2019 and began offering catering services shortly after.

“Ferah Catering & Events was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication style was easy, quick, responsive, and professional. We scheduled a tasting at one of their locations, and I was able to pick exactly what I wanted for the buffet menu. On the wedding day, everything was exactly as we had discussed - no unwanted surprises. Their catering team was super efficient and attentive, with one person dedicated to just my husband and myself while the others tended to our guests. The quality of their work was neat, pretty, and elegant. We couldn't have asked for a better catering experience for our special day.”

Our flawless execution, gorgeous presentation and unequaled value will ensure that your day will be spectacular.

“TL;DR - when they say full-service, they mean full-service! Easily the best food and drink we (and most of our guests) have ever had at a wedding. The staff and especially our coordinator, Erica, were highly communicative, accommodating, enthusiastic, and went above and beyond to make our wedding as great as it could have been! Well worth the price! It's worth noting that they were partnered with our venue, Olio Event Space in Peabody, MA, but I have little doubt that they'd do an excellent job just about anywhere else they're willing to go. We had first heard of Vinwood through our venue because they had specific requirements and a list of partnered vendors we more or less had to choose from without a ton of hassle. While this could have easily become a nightmare, nearly all doubt was washed away as soon as we attended a tasting they hosted. We got to experience firsthand how great their food and staff were before getting into the thick of things, and we were able to get a head start on picking entrees, hors d'oeuvres, linens, and chinaware while we were at the tasting. When we had to lock things in, Vinwood was willing and able to accommodate our handful of allergic/picky eaters and create a dessert spread (cookie, brownie, and ice cream sundae bar) for us because we didn't want a wedding cake. From there until the big day, they remained very communicative about what they needed from us and what we could expect from them throughout the process, even going so far as to help us map out the order of operations in the wedding! Finally, on the big day, Erica and her staff took care of us throughout and were all very kind and personable. They went above and beyond in helping us decorate and brighten up the space to make it perfect for us, and we were once again blown away by the service, food, and drinks. We had lots of comments during and after the wedding about how great the food and drinks were, too. They took care of everything in the table and chair setups/moves/breakdown with what Vinwood, the venue, and we provided, all in a timely manner. I'll never forget one of the staff stopping to let me know the bar was closing, and despite getting lost in conversation again and again, she personally brought over a drink for me with a wink and a smile when she saw me failing to get away. If you couldn't tell by now, I can't sing them enough praise - thank you, Vinwood!!”

“The process from the initial conversation and booking went very well. The scheduled tasting was great, and the food was delicious. The food did not disappoint during the entire event; however, the bar had some challenges. The first was they ran out of certain alcohol during the cocktail hour. We had 150 Guests and it felt like they were under prepared for alcohol needed to entertain our Guests. They then ran out of certain during the reception. Another thing that did not bode well with us was we paid them all cash tip as we tipped all our vendors and on the bar during an open bar was a tip jar, they also put up a QR code for people to tip them through Venmo for people who did not have cash. It was crazy that they took our tip in the beginning and then tried to get more tips during the reception. We had quite a long line at both the cocktail hour and reception, and it would’ve been nice if the servers took it upon themselves since they were not doing much during the beginning of the reception to pass around either the specialty drink or the beers they had to limit how many people were on line. Overall, Premier Events had great food and while Cypress Creek dealt with most of the booking, this was one of the lower points of the overall experience. The bar was really the only part of the wedding that did not go how we wanted.”

The option to have our menu cooked to order on charcoal grills right beside our tent in live-action was superior; there were no soggy reheated trays of food, the meat timings were perfect, no limitations due to not having cooking equipment as with some catering.

“Zeffert and Gold Catering was an exceptional choice for our wedding. Their communication style was consistently clear, detailed, and professional throughout the entire planning process. When we had a last minute change in catering, they easily stepped in and made the transition seamless. The quality of their work was truly exceptional - the food was absolutely delicious and their team worked incredibly well with all of our other vendors. They even prepared a special tray of apps and our signature drinks for my husband and I so we could take a few moments alone after the ceremony to decompress, and continued to provide drinks and food as needed throughout the entire night. We could not have asked for a better catering experience, and highly recommend Zeffert and Gold to any couple planning their wedding.”
