I forgot to mention the Epcot dessert parties do have food and beverage minimums. I think they're $400-500, and i think the bigger venues like the French terraces or Italy isola are several hundred dollars higher.

The expenditure is an $8,000 minimum DFTW used to impose if a couple wanted to add a private catered event to an Escape event on any day of the week; they discontinued this last year. Now the minimum is only imposed on weekend Escape events, regardless of whether they add a private event.
The food and beverage minimums for Epcot dessert parties depend on the capacity of the venue you choose. It's $23 x the minimum number of guests required. So a venue that holds a minimum of 10 would have a $230 food and beverage minimum, while a venue with a 50-person minimum would have an $1,150 food and beverage minimum. Venue fees range from $100 to $585. There is also a $12.95/person viewing fee for each person who does not have park admission.
Dessert parties at the Grand Floridian and the Contemporary could cost less because they don't have venue fees or viewing fees and you aren't required to provide transportation like you are at some of the Epcot venues.
