How much is the wedding dinner at Raffles Hotel?

The answer depends on which room you book and which day of the week you choose. For the Palm Ballroom, Casuarina Suite, or East India Room, MusicalTouch reports 2026 rates starting at S$258++ per person for lunch or a weekday dinner, rising to S$298++ per person for a weekend dinner. The Jubilee Ballroom—the largest event space—starts at S$288++ per person for lunch or weekday dinner and S$328++ per person for a weekend dinner.

A separate 2026 guide from The Aurora Wedding notes that Raffles banquet pricing is quoted per person rather than per table, a distinction that matters when you compare against hotels that quote per table of 10.

Weekday vs weekend dinner rates

The premium for a Saturday evening is consistent across all ballrooms. Using MusicalTouch’s figures, weekend dinner runs 14% to 16% higher than the equivalent weekday dinner. For a 100-guest wedding in the Palm Ballroom, that weekend premium adds roughly S$4,000 to the base food cost before taxes and service charge.

Palm Ballroom vs Jubilee Ballroom pricing

The Jubilee Ballroom’s larger capacity (220–270 guests) comes with a per-person premium of about S$30 for both weekday and weekend dinners compared with the smaller spaces. MusicalTouch notes that the Jubilee Ballroom’s minimum guest count is also higher—you generally need to fill at least 220 seats, making it a viable option only for larger guest lists.

What this means: If you’re hosting 100 guests or fewer, the Palm Ballroom or Casuarina Suite saves you roughly S$30 per person compared with the Jubilee Ballroom, and the lower guest minimum avoids forcing you to invite people just to meet a headcount.

Raffles Hotel banquet price per person: what you need to know

The per-person price covers the dinner menu and basic table setup. MusicalTouch reports that couples booking a wedding package also receive a 20% discount at Raffles Spa, though this is not a cash saving on the banquet itself.

Inclusions in the per-person price

Based on multiple third-party guides, the standard package typically includes a multi-course Chinese or Western dinner menu, wedding cake, basic floral centrepieces, and standard linen and tableware. Some packages also include a complimentary one-night stay in a suite for the couple.

Additional costs to budget for

Decorations beyond the basic setup, professional photography, a live band or DJ, videography, and additional floral arrangements are all separate. The Aurora Wedding suggests a full Raffles banquet wedding in Singapore often starts above S$50,000 and may reach S$80,000 to S$150,000 once all these extras are included.

The pattern: The per-person dinner rate is roughly half of your total wedding cost. Extras, ang bao for helpers, and pre-wedding events typically double the food bill.

Raffles Hotel wedding package 2026: inclusions and exclusions

The official Raffles Singapore weddings page invites couples to “celebrate your love in historic elegance” and directs enquiries to the events team for tailored arrangements. It does not publish a fixed menu or standardised inclusions list online. For specific details on Raffles Hotel wedding packages in 2026, you can refer to Prezzi banchetti Raffles Hotel 2026.

What is included in the standard wedding package?

From the data compiled by MusicalTouch and The Aurora Wedding, expected inclusions are a wedding dinner, wedding cake, basic floral arrangements, standard table setting, and a one-night bridal suite stay for the couple. Vows.sg lists a premium tier package at S$2,488 per table, which suggests a higher tier of inclusions such as upgraded wine, additional floral, or priority suite assignment.

What is excluded and must be paid separately?

External vendor services—photography, videography, entertainment, styling, and custom decor—are not included. External caterers are not permitted; Raffles provides in-house catering only. The official contact for detailed package information is events.singapore@raffles.com or (65) 6412 1323.

The catch: Because Raffles does not publish its full package details online, the inclusions listed in third-party guides may vary from what you actually receive in your quotation. Always confirm the exact inclusions in writing before booking.

What is a realistic budget for a 100-person wedding at Raffles?

For a 100-guest weekday dinner in the Palm Ballroom at S$288++ per person, the minimum food cost is S$28,800 before service charge and GST. A weekend dinner in the same room at S$298++ per person raises that to S$29,800++. If you opt for the Jubilee Ballroom at the 100-guest minimum (though its listed minimum is 220), the weekend per-person rate of S$328++ would cost S$32,800++ for the food alone.

MusicalTouch flags a S$50 per person surcharge on some packages for auspicious dates and major holidays, which would add S$5,000 to a 100-guest dinner. A S$1,000 surcharge may also apply to certain solemnisation events during festive periods.

Adding 10% service charge and 9% GST (Singapore’s prevailing rate in 2026) to a S$28,800 base brings the food bill to roughly S$34,300. Table of 10 breakdown: S$2,880 base per table, or about S$3,430 after service charge and tax.

On the guest gift side, MoneySmart Singapore (May 2026) places the Raffles Hotel ang bao range at S$310 to S$340 per guest, meaning guests typically cover or slightly exceed the per-person cost.

What to watch: The difference between a weekday and weekend 100-guest wedding at Raffles is about S$4,000 on the base food cost alone. If you are flexible on the day, a Thursday or Sunday wedding can save that amount outright.

Raffles Hotel Jubilee Ballroom wedding price breakdown

The Jubilee Ballroom, with a capacity of 220 to 270 guests, is the largest wedding space at Raffles. MusicalTouch reports the weekend dinner rate at S$328++ per person.

At the minimum of 220 guests on a Saturday, the food cost alone is 220 × S$328 = S$72,160++ before service charge and taxes. Adding 10% service charge and 9% GST brings the total to roughly S$85,900. A fully filled 270-guest Saturday dinner would cost approximately 270 × S$328 = S$88,560 before extras, or about S$105,500 after service charge and tax.
