Catering
Catering menus built around your event, not a price list
Every event starts with a conversation with our chef. Tell us the occasion, the guest list and the flavors you love, and we build the menu from there — traditional American, Caribbean, Latin, Italian, Mediterranean or a mix. Our reviews mention Chicken Francese, bacon-wrapped dates, lamb chops, salmon, ribs, mac and cheese and paella-style displays for a reason: the food is the point.
Dishes are prepared fresh for your date with quality ingredients, presented on gold-trimmed platters, wooden boards and polished chafing displays that look as good as they taste.
- Buffet, family-style, plated and cocktail-reception formats
- Grazing tables, charcuterie and dessert displays
- Dietary accommodations — vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal-friendly options
- Printed individual menus and place cards on request
Full-service catering: staffed, set up and cleaned up
Catering is more than dropping off trays. Our team arrives early, sets the buffet or tables, serves your guests, keeps the bar moving and breaks everything down — including packing leftovers into containers you provide. Raj is typically on site for set-up and through service.
Need the room too? We supply tables, chairs, linens, bars, lounge furniture, dance floors and tents from our own rental inventory, so one call covers the whole event.
Corporate catering, wedding catering and every party in between
Office lunches and holiday parties, weddings and rehearsal dinners, birthdays, showers, graduations, fundraisers, political functions and cocktail receptions for 130+ residents — we have catered all of them across the tri-county area, from waterfront docks to hotel ballrooms.

“I hired Luxury Event Planning for my 30th Anniversary party at home. We had 25 people for a buffet dinner. I hired one server/bartender, Bradley, who was as sweet and hard-working as could be. Raj was there for the set-up and stayed through cocktail hour and serving dinner. Bradley stayed to the end and cleaned up everything, including packing up the leftovers in containers that I provided. My original plan for th…”
“Raj catered our New Year’s Eve event at our luxury condominium, where we hosted over 130 residents, and I truly cannot say enough great things about the experience. From start to finish, working with Raj was an absolute breeze. His professionalism, incredible eye for décor, and—most importantly—his genuine passion and care for his craft were evident in every detail. The event display was stunning, elevated, and be…”
“I can’t say enough about Luxury Event Planning & Catering. I became acquainted with them just from a google search & Raj reached out right away & asked if he could help me plan my event. He had suggestions & was so communicative…no one does customer service like this anymore! It was only a few weeks out from Christmas Eve & the thought of doing everything myself was weighing me down but I really wanted to host a f…”
“Raj and his Luxury Event Planning and Catering team did an absolutely phenomenal job catering a baby shower I attended this weekend in Boca Raton! From start to finish, every dish was not only visually stunning but also incredibly fresh, flavorful, and expertly prepared. The quality of the food was outstanding, and every bite was delicious. What truly set them apart, though, was their exceptional service. They wen…”
“Raj! Thank you soooo very much for catering our event. The food was absolutely DELICIOUS! Absolutely everyone was raving on about your Chicken Francese! The vegetables were perfection. The silky, mashed potatoes and the fettuccini were wonderful. Absolutely everything was exquisite. It was so tasty that nothing went to waste. We had the left overs for lunch the next day. The little menus that you printed added suc…”
“I have to say, I hardly ever take time for reviews but I’m stopping to rate Chef Raj with only 5 stars ‘cause there aren’t any more. Chef Raj was absolutely impeccable from start to finish. His communication was clear, constant, and professional. He was flexible with every change, incredibly accommodating, and carried the most pleasant, kind, and agreeable attitude throughout the entire process. The food? Outstand…”

Questions
Event Catering in Delray Beach — FAQs
How much does catering cost in Delray Beach?
It depends on the menu format (buffet, plated, cocktail reception), the guest count and staffing. Because every menu is custom, we quote per event rather than from a fixed price list — send us your date and headcount and you'll get a straightforward proposal, usually the same day.
Do you provide servers and bartenders?
Yes. Servers, bartenders, a host or captain and set-up/break-down crew can all be included. Several of our Google reviews call out the staff by name for a reason.
What cuisines can you cater?
Our chef prepares traditional American and international menus — Caribbean, Latin, Italian, Mediterranean and more — plus gourmet empanada packages. If you have a family dish in mind, ask; we can usually build it in.
Can you cater on short notice?
Often, yes. One client lost their caterer five hours before a 75th birthday party and we delivered on time. Availability depends on the calendar, so call as soon as you know.
Do you cater beachside and outdoor events in Delray Beach?
Yes. We plan outdoor menus around the heat and the setting, bring chafing and cold-display equipment, and can add umbrellas, cabanas or a tent from our rental inventory.
How far in advance should I book?
Popular Saturdays, the holiday season and spring wedding dates book out weeks or months ahead in Delray Beach. Reach out as soon as you have a date — that said, we have delivered full events on as little as five hours' notice when our calendar allowed.
Are deposits refundable?
No. All payments, including deposits, are non-refundable because they reserve our team and equipment exclusively for your date, time and location. The full policy is on our Terms page.
