Where to get plates?

I am looking for disposable divided plates. I don't want foam or paper. I am looking for a sturdy disposable plastic divided plate but I can not seem to find any that are 4 compartments. I have found really nice 3 compartment ones, but my FH doesn't think they are big enough. We are having BBQ at our wedding so we have Brisket or Pulled Chicken sandwiches, potato salad, Mac & Cheese and Corn Bread. He wants a compartment for each of them. I am only finding 3 or 5 compartment plates. I've checked quiet a few different websites but no luck. Anyone have any recommendations? I checked with our caterer too and he doesn't have divided plates.

No idea about divided ones but I got my pretty plastic ones at Poshpartysupplies, they’re super heavy and come as plain or ornate as you can think of.

That's where I found the really nice 3 compartment, but they don't have plastic disposable with 4 compartments. If we can't find the 4 compartment we will probably just end up with the 3. Thank you!

If there is a Costco in your area, try them! They have a lot of heavy disposables for great prices

I just did a deep dive into google and I don’t think 4 compartment disposable plates exist. I found one and they come from alibaba so I wouldn’t trust that. Otherwise it’s only real plates with 4 compartments or disposable with 3. I don’t think having a compartment for each component of the meal is necessary and I would just buy normal plates.

I didn’t think a compartment for each was necessary either but my FH is so set on it. I’m thinking the nice 3 compartment will be the way we have to go!

I checked those ones too, they aren't disposable and they are $43.99 for 6 plates. We need 250, that would be really expensive! Lol thank you for your help!

If it helps, I really don't like my food touching and I'd be 100% fine with a 3 compartment plate where the cornbread and sandwich/meat is on the big compartment and the sides are the 2 smaller compartments.
