Frequently asked questions
Planning a wedding caterer in New York City
How much does wedding catering cost in New York City?
Catering in New York City 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 New York City?
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.
