What is the difference between a passed appetizer and a cocktail party?

A passed appetizer, also known as a butler passed appetizer, means that the waitstaff actually passes the appetizers around on a tray to each guest. By contrast, cocktail food is placed on a long buffet table and the guest serves himself.
