The question of whether or not to fix your own food for the wedding
reception can sometimes be a difficult one. Cost is usually a
factor, but there may be hidden costs in doing it yourself that
you don't need to consider when using a caterer. So make some
calls, ask lots of questions, and list your options.
First, consider the cost to rent your reception facility. Many
restaurants and hotels include in their catering charges the use
of their facilities and serving staff at no extra cost - - some
will not even consider catering an event at another location.
Next, figure your food budget based on how much you want to spend
per person attending. Restaurants and hotels may have a minimum
price where an independent caterer can work within just about
any budget. Add an extra ten percent for overage and additional
cost for gratuity, if appropriate.
Your caterer will know how much of each item to provide for the
number of people you expect. However, a good rule of thumb is
two of each item per person.
Independent caterers will bring your feast to just about any location.
Their prices quite often will also include extras like table linens,
plates, glasses, etc. - but ask just to be sure.
Unless you happen to choose your caterer by attending another
catered event, you will probably have no chance to taste their
wares in advance.
However, many restaurants and hotels offer buffet brunches and
dinners on the weekends. This is an ideal way to taste the quality
and variety available through their banquet and catering facilities.
