So i have already paid a non-refundable $1000 for my caterer, and i loved there menu, originally meals for 50 ppl was adding upto around 1500 so thats what i budgeted for....so now they are telling me that i have to pay this much and this much for certain things, like for server appartenyly i need 1 for each 10 ppl(thats ridiculous cos its a buffet line) what could i possibly need thatmany servers for..........anyway so im just wondering whether to go with a cheaper bbq style caterer ...i worked out that for 50 people(and way more food) it would be around $900 and the original caterer is looking at $2500 so we would still save atleast 600 if we forfeit the deposit im just not sure if it would be worth it, so just advice or ideas.
thanks
ps. our reception is in a garden and it is very casual so a bbq wouldnt be out of place
