Disposable Plates and Forks

I've used SOLO Bare Sugarcane plates ordered off Amazon for different events. They are compostable and were sturdy enough for BBQ. Amazon has a number of different compostable plates and utensils to choose from.

Look on Webstaurant Store. I am using Palm leaf plates (10 inch square). They are compostable. For a case of 100 it is $28.05. They are beautiful and great for the rustic or outdoorsy, woodland look.

As for the wooden forks.....I researched and looked and finally decided to order a small pack of them to try them out first. Even the more sturdy quality ones were a bit flimsy for cutting. Really the biggest issue I had with the wood utensils is the weird 'feel' they have in my mouth while eating. It's like that feel/taste of a popsicle stick... not too pleasant to eat an entire meal with.

All said and done, I went with silver "look" utensils (plastic) because the wooden ones just didn't seem to hold up or 'feel' right to me.

I am doing the same thing as Esmeralda, palm leaf plates and the plastic utensils that look real. I have ordered a ton of things from webstaurantstore.com, it is a great website. These are my plates.

It's a RD. Use Chinette plates if you want to. It can be as casual as you want. Believe me...nobody is going to judge whatever you decide to use at a RD.

I just went to a wedding that used those wooden plates and forks. Personally I hated the forks. I have a thing about eating off wood. To me it’s like nails on a chalkboard. It gives me the chills just thinking about it. I can’t eat a popsicle with a wooden stick either, it’s that bad. I actually ate with my fingers at the wedding. It’s probably just me and trust me after that experience, I will always pack a fork in my purse, lol.

I have been thinking about this too! I have never heard of palm leaf plates but I am interested! Thanks for sharing ☺️
