Event Catering Frequently Asked Questions
Below are some of the most common questions we hear about event catering at Opulence Entertainment Group:
How much does full-service event catering usually run in Miami?
Catering service rates depend on several factors based on guest count, the scope of the menu, and how long the event runs. Generally speaking, full-service catering in Miami begins around a per-guest cost that reflects the quality of food, bar service, and staffing. Opulence Entertainment Group delivers clear cost breakdowns once we understand your event.
What's the difference between station-style and butler-style event catering?
Buffet and station setups offer people the freedom to choose what they eat and interact with the food display — well-suited to less formal occasions. Multi-course plated formats, by contrast, creates a more structured atmosphere where each guest is brought to the table. All service styles have distinct advantages depending on your event style.
How far in advance should I book event catering for my event?
In general, we recommend booking your event catering at least 6–8 weeks in advance. When it comes to weddings or corporate galas — most notably around summer and fall event periods — planning ahead by several months gives us time to fully prepare. Reserving in advance also allow our chefs more time to personalize your service experience.
Can your culinary crew accommodate dietary restrictions for guests?
Absolutely. The chefs at Opulence Entertainment Group regularly works with a wide range of dietary restrictions — such as kosher, halal, and dairy-free requirements. During the planning process, we'll ask details on any food allergies or preferences to make certain all attendees can enjoy the meal fully.

Yes — our full-service event catering packages include bar equipment, glassware, and mixers as included in the overall offering. We comes prepared with all supplies to deliver a seamless bar program throughout the entire event. If you have specific brand selections, just let us know.
