Birthday catering splits by crowd. An adult party is usually a compact buffet or grazing table plus something interactive, a drinks bar or a live station that gives people a reason to stand somewhere. Numbers are often too small for a full staffed setup, so check the minimum guest count on the package before you fall for it.
It varies by vendor and is shown on each package. Small orders often start around 10 to 25 guests for meal box sets, while staffed bars and live stations typically start at 50.
It depends on numbers. Setup cost is mostly fixed, so per head it is expensive below about 30 guests and reasonable above 50. For a small party, good food plus a dessert table usually gives more for the money.
They are usually separate bookings. Cake and dessert vendors are listed alongside caterers, and you book each against its own availability for the same date.
