How much are you paying per person for food?

Awesome, dai!!

Oh my goodness...some of those prices made my stomach turn haha...we are doing it ourselves..total cost is about 250 for ALL of our food..another 100 for beer/champagne..and we are having roughly 130. I don't feel like doing math haha but pretty darn cheap here

I haven't done the math yet. We're not ordering by plate but instead ordering each item "a la cart" since it's a buffet and the catering place offers that option. We're still deciding on everything, too. So far, it looks to be about $25/person, including appetizers.

I feel for the Jersey Girls - $115/pp, not including the alcohol, but it DOES include all the table linen, place settings, wedding cake ( mini creme brulee), cocktail hour and pre-ceremony beverages

$7/pp and .75cents/pp for drinks. It's mainly finger foods. (Finger rolls, fruit platter etc.)

But, it's buffet-style. (Getting married in Maine.)

We're paying about $70 per person. Our package includes:

*cocktail hour in a separate room

*4 hour reception

*appetizers, salad, choice of 4 entrees

*open bar

*set up, clean up, etc

*table linens

*floral centerpieces (to keep)

*wedding cake

*Maitre' D service

*honeymoon suite (w/jacuzzi!) for the night of

*5 guest rooms that we can give to whoever we want

We are paying $8.50 pp for choice of two meats, a potato, veggie, two salads, a dinner roll, lemonade, coffee and cake. We have to pay our bar bill separate though.

Wow, living in NY the cost of a wedding is so expensive. We are paying $150 pp for a Friday night.

We're paying $ 120.00 and we think we got a deal. We're getting a cocktail hour in a separate room which includes everything you can think of. Open bar. Dinner will include 4 courses choice of Chicken, Filet Migon, or Salmon. Dessert will be chocolate fountain, cookies, pastries and of course wedding cake. They also included the suite,table linens and valet service. Thought we had a deal, not sure now.

Ours is about $21 per person. That includes everything but the booze and the cake.

Ours is $49pp. It includes cake, linens, centerpieces, all food, champagne, and my bridal suite, a limo. Basically we only have to pay for photographer, DJ, officiant and bouquets.

Ours is $27.50 pp not including the 10% gratuity it includes

* The room and set up/clean up

* Servers and bartenders

* Family style dinner with salad

* Table linens and colored napkins

* Chair covers with color bows

* 5 hour open bar

* Ice cream

* cake cutting

Mine is 44pp that includes taxes and gratuity but the cake is not included

I think mine was 12-15/person, but that also included all the flatwear and table cloths and non-alcoholic drinks.

Ours are 29.95 pp that isn't including drinks but we aren't serving alcohol. I thought we got off pretty good.

@patti - you got an amazing deal!! All that for $120 per person??! wow. When I count in flowers, tables, linens, rentals, cake, etc. Mine came to about $300 per person!

Ours is $60 per person, plus tax, not including drinks

Our is 10 pp but that doesnt include anything but the food!

Where we live the venues I looked at are anywhere from 11.95pp to 21.95pp. Since we have to fund this wedding ourselves, we went with a venue that doesn't have catering so we can bring our own food in. We are going to order BBQ at $9 a pound which will feed 3 people. We are going to pick it up the Friday before the wedding and then a crew of my friends and I are making all of the side dishes.
