I am on a low budget and feeling almost helpless for food because there are few caterers around here willing to work with our small budget of $1800 for 100-150 guests. I am thinking about just ordering catering from chik fil a. It's good food, and I know tons of people will enjoy it, but I just don't know if people are going to look down on me. What do you think? Is it tacky? I am running out of ideas, here, and I'm getting very discouraged.
Re: Chik fil A = reception food?
My fiance would LOVE chick-fil-a. I have to admit that I had no idea that they catered.
I guess I would have to say that it depends on how formal or casual your wedding is. If it's a backyard or casual wedding, then I think it would be fine.
However, I think a BBQ joint might be better, or even any restaurant local to you (a lot of itialian places cater, mexican places, etc). Where are you?
Plus, I think they also make more attractive serving platters and can provide staff.
Where exactly are you? It would help us a little if you offered up a city or something.

I do love me some Chik-Fil-A. I guess I could see it if it was dressed up nicely and you were doing something super casual but it is limited on options . I agree with the PP though. Maybe Red Hot, and Blue would give more variety or the pasta idea would work. What city are you in?
