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 causeway, the building and the permit rules that actually apply to your Miami Beach venue.
Crepes give a room something to gather around without giving up presentation. Each guest picks a direction while the chef cooks it fresh on-site, which is why the station works as a late dessert moment on a rooftop or as part of the meal in a ballroom. This page covers what changes once the event is on the island: permits, City pavilion cooking rules, causeway load-in and building vendor paperwork. 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.

Miami Beach regulates events more tightly than most South Florida cities, and for a live station the rule that matters most is about cooking, not music. Sorting these out early usually decides your venue, not your menu.
Service area focus: Miami Beach, Florida. This map identifies the city only and does not represent a VNV Events office.
VNV Events does not apply for, obtain or guarantee permits, and does not decide what a City venue will approve. 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 or the building's questions accurately.
A crepe station is working equipment placed where guests can see it, on an island where getting the equipment to the room is usually the hard part. 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 rather than sitting at the end of it.
Coordinate the buffet presentation with the room, whether that is a ballroom, a rooftop or a terrace at home.

It depends on the property. The City of Miami Beach requires a Special Event Permit for events on public property and for events inside private commercial property, such as a hotel, restaurant or retail space, when the event changes the allowable use of that space under the property's existing City license. The City states 90 days' notice for events on public property and 60 days' notice for events on private commercial property, and large-scale residential parties and events have their own permit category with applications due no later than 90 days before the event. Confirm your specific event directly with the City. VNV Events does not apply for or guarantee permits.
Read the City pavilion rental rules before you plan around one. The City of Miami Beach states that on-site open-flame cooking is not permitted at pavilion rentals and that only pre-cooked food may be served, so a live cooking station is not automatically compatible with that booking. Confirm the cooking method and the placement with Parks and Recreation first. Pavilion rentals also run in four-hour blocks that include vendor setup and breakdown, and require vendor insurance documentation.
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 and wind-protected cooking area, a safe power source close to the station, and a workable load-in path that accounts for causeway traffic, the loading zone or valet lane and any service elevator reservation. Hotels, condo associations and clubs often require an approved vendor list and a certificate of insurance, so ask for that list early. 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.
