Comparing wedding caterers across Ontario? What you'll pay varies widely by region — expect the highest prices in Toronto and the GTA and in destination areas like Muskoka and Niagara wine country, and more room in southwestern and northern Ontario. As a province-wide guide, wedding caterers typically run $90–$185 per guest (per plate, before bar and service charges), with your final cost shaped by date, guest count and style.
Caterers usually price per plate, but the headline number rarely tells the whole story — ask whether staffing, rentals (plates, glassware, linens), bar service and gratuity are included or added on top. Book a tasting before you sign, confirm how they handle dietary restrictions and children's meals, and check whether your venue requires an approved caterer or allows outside vendors.
