Appetizers

I think in order to determine what your budget should be you need to know what your guest count will be so you can know how much you can afford to spend per guest. I think your plan sounds fine although I would be wary of how you’re going to prepare a bunch of apps and keep them warm and tasty so maybe trays of cold cuts, cheeses, veggies, dips and crackers would be a good option and things that don’t necessarily need lots of preparation.

I think it sounds fun!! Agree with the advice to keep the food simple to avoid any heating/ cooling issues. I’d definitely go for a dance floor and disco ball!

If you are shopping at Costco, I'd do easy things like fruit & veggie trays, and meat/cheese/cracker trays! If you have a crock pot or sterno chafing dish, you could do premade meatballs, Costco sells those too.

Find out what your guest count is going to be than go from there. You can always have local eateries or grocery store cater for reasonable.

Hey Vicky! Have you decided what food to get for your wedding?
