Wedding catering (I know I'm going to get negative comments but that's okay)

If you served that, and I attended your wedding....I would be very hungry and not happy at all.

First of all...that is fast food. Not wedding food. Second....I am with A L....anti-gay businesses suck.

For your rehearsal dinner have at it. But not for a wedding.

Maybe use it as a late night snack or rehearsal dinner? That way you can also have the dinner you dreamed of.

FH is having chick fil a brought in for lunch on the wedding day. He is obsessed with it (despite all of the ethical issues smh)

Richard, that is hilarious.

Don't serve it unless you know that every single one of your guests hate the gays as much as the Chick-Fil-A owners do.

Fast food at a wedding.....what a hoot!!!

No.

@Macy You're right, it is impossible to be a completely conscious consumer in a capitalist society. However, I do try my hardest. When a company very publicly and very aggressively used profits to fight against my right to do the thing this entire website is dedicated to, I'm going to boycott the shit out of them. And also turn my nose up at people who continue to implicitly support those discriminatory attitudes because they like the taste of one kind of chicken nugget better than the other.

I don't care if it makes me sound snobby, but I would refuse to eat fast food of any kind at a wedding, no matter how casual the atmosphere. A presumably once in a lifetime event, and you want to serve something I get quickly on the way home when I don't feel like cooking? No. It's also especially egregious to serve food at a WEDDING from a company who believes only certain people deserve a wedding in the first place.

How about the rehearsal dinner? I used to be a manager for a chick fil a and let me just tell you that this is a horrible idea. The logistics are not there, don't do this.you want CFA sauce all over your wedding gown? No. You want greasy fries and nuggets left behind on your linens? No.

The nuggets don't even stay good - even the chilled trays they'll offer to give you for the venue to warm up.

Not to even mention the fact that PWG is completely correct and if you think it's just the founding family that's like that, it's not. It's the operators of the restaurants as well.

Macy, if anything deserves your exasperated, "Oh, good Lord...", it's not the image of "it doesn't concern me" citizens throwing their hands in the air and expressing their frustration with our fundamental right to protest a gross injustice. What does warrant and "Oh, good Lord..." response is this: "The day after the Supreme Court of the United States struck down Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act, Cathy (owner of this chicken stand) tweeted, 'Sad day for our nation; founding fathers would be ashamed of our gen. to abandon wisdom of the ages re: cornerstone of strong societies.' And that's just the tip of the iceberg (oh, and that tweet was subsequently deleted).

OP, now that you've gotten honest -- as in, this isn't a thought, but a plan, I'll be a little more honest. This is you and him being cheap. You mentioned the budget several times, which is how I knew you'd never add take out to a plated dinner. If he loves Chik-fil-A this much, have it for dinner tonight, for lunch tomorrow, and for the rest of the week. But please, unless you want the whispered phrase at your wedding to be "Chik-fil-A", don't do this. Everyone will know it's about frugality, not love of take-out. It's so obvious. Now, there's truth.

Oh for goodness sake don't do this. Your poor guests have travelled, payed for hotels and likely bought you a nice present/cash. Feed them properly.

I agree with others about the late night snacks. We are having a traditional sit down dinner but then are serving Philly favorites (cheese steaks and other junk food) as late night snacks.

@macy fucking. Thank. You.

I think I would rather have Popeyes chicken over Chik-fil-A

Mmmmmmm Popeyes!!!

Can you have them cater your rehearsal dinner? Or I vote late night snack like everyone else!

I think you know what you're going to do, so what did you ask? Don't ask a question and then get #offended.

Fried food just isn't the same when it's not fresh. I work for a caterer that does a lot of fried food on our food truck and it just doesn't translate when it's kept in a hotbox. The breading gets soggy and they're no longer crispy.

I also think it's bs to ask people to travel to your wedding, get dressed, get a sitter, and possibly buy a gift to be "treated" to a dinner from Chick-Fil-A. You might not be asking for gifts, but they are pretty much standard practice. I would be pissed if I gave you $100-150 cash and got "treated" to a $4 meal from Chick Fil A.

A friend of mine is a very picky eater. She eats like a preschooler. Anyway at her wedding, they had a fabulous meal but her maids of honor made sure that a McDonalds cheeseburger was delivered to the reception for her dinner. Maybe you can surprise your future husband with a plate of chicken nuggets but feed your guests a real dinner.
