Brooklyn venues range from fully catered all-inclusive operations to blank-canvas spaces where you bring everything. Understanding each venue's catering setup — including service styles, dietary accommodation policies, tasting processes, and minimum spends — is critical to planning your dream menu.
Catering typically represents 35–50% of a wedding budget. The wrong catering policy can force you into a menu that doesn't match your vision or costs more than your budget allows.
