This week my FH and I have been discussing food options for our reception. We found two plated, table served dishes - one beef, one chicken - that we like and the price difference per plate is about 2$. We have a food and beverage minimum to meet, and even if everyone chose the more expensive plate, I would still be under my food minimum so price is not an issue here. FH and I liked the idea of giving our guests a food option with their RSVP, then I realized we'd have to do a seating chart. We could offer these same dishes as a "self serve" option still maintaining our food minimum, but we like the idea of our guests being served.
So, any advice from yall on what yall chose and how yall decided self serve v. plated and served dinner? Is the seating chart work worth it? What did guests think about being told where to sit?
