Specific service rates will be determined by the type of menu and thus the number of staff needed.
Please note that Culinary Creation menus start at $40 per person. This will include 3 to 4 hors D'oeuvres and 6 to 7 different items on the menu. This price will also include any chaffing dishes, platters and serving utensils needed for a buffet.
The notes here are to be used as a guideline and are considered a good estimate for a seven-hour event. This allows two hours for set up, four hours for the event and one hour for cleanup.
Overtime, at $25 per staff member per hour, will be charged after seven hours.
