Frequently asked questions
Planning a wedding caterer in Chicago

Catering in Chicago typically runs $40–$120 per guest depending on service style — buffet and stations at the lower range, plated service higher. Confirm what staffing, rentals, and service fees are included; the per-plate number rarely tells the whole story.
How does Lazo rank wedding caterers in Chicago?
Rankings come from the Lazo Score — verified reviews weighted for recency — and are never sold. Vendors without verified reviews yet start at the community baseline of 65 and earn their score as verified reviews arrive.
