Does anyone have ideas to keep deli trays cold for several hours with out using a fridge or ice chest? The deli trays will be in an ice chest until about 5pm when they will be placed onto the tables. They will be left there unit the reception starts at 730 and goes to 930. I was thinking the lids of the deli tray could be filled with ice and ask the store for extra lids to keep the food covered until the reception starts. Thoughts or ideas?

I would say the lids filled with ice would be your best bet. Also try to put them in the shade or at least out of direct sunlight.

They will be inside. We are having our reception in a Las Vegas suite. That's what I'm thinking it will be fine. I just want to double check with every one what their thoughts are. Thx!

Filling empty lids with ice sounds like a good idea. Could the suite be of any help with the ice and such.

I think they can bring up the ice. They can't help arrange the food because I'm not getting it though them.
