Sweet and savory crepes cooked in front of your guests, styled as a buffet and served through two hours of live chef preparation, planned around the downtown tower, waterfront venue or clubhouse you are actually using in Fort Lauderdale.
Fort Lauderdale events tend to move: cocktails on a terrace, dinner inside, then a moment that has to pull the room back together. A crepe station does that in the open, because each guest picks a direction and the chef prepares it fresh on-site. This page covers the Fort Lauderdale side of the setup; the full service overview lives on the South Florida crepe station page.
Final fillings, dietary accommodations, setup details and logistics are confirmed in the proposal before booking.
The current published base price is $19 per guest with a 25-guest minimum. Delivery, taxes, upgrades, availability, venue requirements and final menu selections are confirmed in your written proposal, so treat this as a starting point rather than a final total.

Fort Lauderdale treats outdoor events on public property differently from private venues, and cooking under a canopy is one of the details that changes the answer. Sorting this out early usually decides your date, not your menu.
Service area focus: Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This map identifies the city only and does not represent a VNV Events office or address.
VNV Events does not apply for, obtain or guarantee permits. Permitting and approvals are the responsibility of the host, the venue or your planner. We will give you the setup details you need to answer the City's, Riverwalk's or the venue's questions accurately.
A crepe station is hot cooking equipment placed where guests can see it, so a short walkthrough answers most of it before anyone signs anything.

Build the three sweet fillings around fruit, chocolate and cream for a dessert-forward moment late in the night.
Use the three savory fillings so the station carries part of the meal instead of sitting at the end of it, which works well for brunch and corporate socials.
Coordinate the buffet presentation with the colors and atmosphere of the celebration and with the space the venue gives you.

It depends on the property and the setup. The City of Fort Lauderdale requires an outdoor event permit for certain events on public property, submitted through its online outdoor event application, and the City's special event process treats canopies or tents used for cooking as requiring a permit and a final inspection, with building permits applied for and paid at least 30 days before the event. Events at private venues, clubhouses and homes usually follow venue and association rules instead. Requirements change, so confirm your specific event with the City and your venue. VNV Events does not apply for or guarantee permits.
Riverwalk Fort Lauderdale, Inc. oversees outdoor events held within the Riverwalk District, which includes Esplanade Park, Huizenga Plaza, Hardy Park and other downtown parks. A date there can involve both the City's permit process and Riverwalk's operations team, and the two run on separate timelines, so confirm both before you commit to a date.
Yes. The package includes two hours of live-chef preparation on-site, with sweet and savory crepes made in front of guests and served from a styled buffet.
A covered cooking area, a safe power source close to the station and a clear load-in path from parking or the loading dock. Downtown towers and beachfront condos may also require a reserved service elevator and advance notice at security. Exact power and placement requirements are confirmed with your venue before the proposal is finalized rather than assumed.
Send the date, venue and guest count and we will confirm what the setup needs and what the proposal would include.
