The wedding dinner is one of the most essential elements of a wedding celebration. You can skip the wedding cake, but surely not the dinner! Choosing catering that suits both your taste and budget is not an easy task. Luckily, the wedding industry in Crete has grown significantly in recent years, offering a wide range of options to choose from.
You have two main choices:
- Selecting a venue known for its exceptional food.
- Choosing any venue you love and hiring an external catering service.
Each option comes with different packages, ranging from basic to premium, allowing flexibility for different budgets.
When opting for external catering, you can customise not just the menu but also the tableware, cutlery, plates, cups, glasses, and décor to match your vision and theme. If the catering company doesn’t provide your preferred items, we collaborate with external suppliers who specialise in renting tableware and decorations in any colour, shape, and quantity you desire.
Budget & Cost Considerations
One of the most frequently asked questions is about the cost. We previously wrote a blog on the minimum wedding budget in Crete to give you a rough idea of what to expect. Specifically for food, in 2025, prices start at a minimum of €70 per person—and this at times might not even include drinks.
Weddings are a premium industry, and with the rising cost of living worldwide, Crete is no exception. We share this information to help you plan ahead, saving you time and allowing you to make an informed decision about your destination wedding in Crete.
