How does Catering World work?

Catering World is a digital marketing for all types of vendors that are needed when planning any type of event. There are two different ways to plan your event; “You Plan It” and “We Plan It.” These are explained more in detail below.

Absolutely. We never charge any fees other than what the vendors require. You will always see a breakdown of what the vendor charges. Nothing is hidden and there are no markups.
