Florida wedding caterers typically charge $35 to $60 per guest, with the broader market ranging from $20 to $300 per guest. Because premium and luxury caterers rarely publish prices and require a direct inquiry, the vendors reflected in these numbers skew toward the more affordable end, meaning the true market average is likely higher.
