We're having a small wedding with 20 guests. Our wedding is in a rural setting. We want it to be elegant, but casual and fun at the same time. We're considering hiring a personal chef who is available and looks like she's a real interesting person. She's asking us to give her the top price we'd be willing to pay per person and we'll go from there.
My question: What is a good price range to determine a price we'd feel comfortable in asking? I don't want to insult her, yet I don't want to offer up a price that will break the bank. I don't even know what a mid-range price would be for this kind of setting. Any assistance would be great.
Thanks!
