The average wedding cost $26,750.00 in the United States in 2007. Weddings are costly so here are some tips from wedding caterer Chef Mike that can save you money on your wedding.
- What time of day should I have my reception if my budget is extremely limited? Mid-afternoon. Your guests have already eaten lunch and will not require an extensive menu. Therefore, light hors d'oeuvres (finger foods) or a dessert reception will be more than adequate.
- How can I conquer that costly liquor, beer and wine tab? Serve an alcoholic & non-alcoholic punch in lieu of a bar.
- If I'm hiring a professional caterer and trying to cut costs, should I have a cocktail-type or sit-down meal reception? No bones about it, the cocktail reception is the way to go - for two reasons. First, in most circumstances, the caterer makes more profit on a cocktail reception -- they're happy. Secondly, in most cases, it's cheaper "per person" to have a cocktail reception -- you're happy. Everybody's happy!
