There’s too much empty space, a restaurant can get by with a dish like this but at a self serve event, people expect the packed to the gills type of set up.
Personally I like the variety of meats, cheese and crackers available even if it’s not displayed as nicely as other boards. How many people did that feed? I’d probably pay $15-20pp if it was an app course or $25-30pp if it was the main meal

You don’t slice your own meat ? It will be more appealing thinner.

For everyone giving a bit of shade, it’s more around the presentation than the quality of the setup. If you’d asked the same question with a picture of a table 75% of the size I imagine it’d get better reviews. This looks awesome for a friends and family event

You have a nice assortment or everything but I think you did yourself a disservice by your arrangement style. I would have either done it on one board or maybe add some dimension using height in your display.
The meat section where you have the prosciutto looks a little skimpy to me. It just highlights that there isn’t much there.
Please don’t feel discouraged I think this is a great start just could use a little work on the presentation.
How much did you charge? My guess for your costs would be around $300?
I don’t think your variety is bad at all but if I ordered a large spread I would feel slightly jipped.
