I am throwing a bunch of ideas around with my FI and contacting quite a few vendors. Our wedding isn't for some time now but we need that time to save./
Anyways, a quite of few vendors and people have told me that stay within my tight budget that a BYO would probably be best. I could get the alcohol at a cheaper price than if I had to pay the hall for an open bar. My FI is completely against this. He doesn't want to worry about carrying anything out after the reception. My concern is staying within our budget.
My question to you ladies is - Have any of you had a BYO venue, is it actually cheaper to provide your own alcohol? How was the end of the reception, did you have a lot to carry out.
The vendors that i have contacted said they would handle the pick up & delivery of unopened bottles but I would be responsible for the open bottles.
