Supply our own plates/silverware?

Laura, on August 4, 2019 at 4:51 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 4
Our catering will be BBQ buffet and the food is delicious and we are so excited for it. When we did our tasting with them they let us use their black plastic plates and black plastic silverware that they would provide for our dinner. The way they had it played was with a gold charger plate underneath and it looked really nice. However, we can’t afford to rent/buy chargers and are wondering if we should just use the black plates /silverware they provide and put a white/gold/silver doily underneath ($15-30) to make it pop a little or just buy a separate set of white plastic plates with silver trim and plastic silverware ($60-75) or just buy the chargers ($80-100).

    Gold doilles will probably be your best bet. Plus they'll be easier to transport and you can throw away the ones that get ruined at the end of the night.

    I don’t know your budget but Dollar Tree has gold chargers(obviously $1), I couldn’t afford to rent ones either. I plan on buying mine at Dollar Tree, they felt pretty sturdy.

    I agree with Courtney on using the gold doilies. That would look pretty!
