The Food (Cue Evil Music Here)

The food, the food, the food. What I like to call the worst part of the wedding for the bride and groom. Originally we had planned to serve the full meal of roast beef at 15.95 a plate for 220 people. I dont know why we ever thought that was a good idea. For one, I've never had a meal at a hall that was actually worth that kind of money because I've never had a meal at a hall that was really all that good at all. Hall food is usually bland and nasty. So we scratched the idea of the full meal.

So we opted for finger foods because after all, this is supposed to be the debt-free wedding. We pushed our reception time to later so that people could have a light supper before coming to the reception and since then we have been in a constant battle with the hall, to the point where if it wasn't so late in the game I would probably consider switching halls. The hall claims to do buffet style finger foods, yet they cant give us a price for it. They can't even give us options for what we can have as finger foods. We need to tell them what we want and then they come up with a price, in other words, we are likely going to get severely ripped off. So now we are considering bringing in separate catering. I'll keep you posted on how this battle goes for us!
