(If FH and I continue with our original wedding plans) we will be having a grand black tie soiree hosted in an opulent Victorian ballroom. Following the ceremony, we will have cocktail hour with canapes and drinks served, followed by a 3 course sit down dinner plus wedding cake.
Due to there being lots of alcohol (incl. spirits) my parents are insisting we have extra food on the table such as shared entrees (think antipasto platters or platters of smoked salmon on blini) alongside individual entrees, or some additional sides with mains. I am trying to cut some expenses and think there will be enough food, and that if someone wants to get absolutely wasted, no amount of food will stop that anyway.
WW – what do you think, do we pay for extra food or cut the cost?
