Need a caterer on Whidbey Island - advice please! :)

meesh78

30-40 people on Whidbey Island in June of 2012.  Budget is $2000 total (including fees, tax, etc).  I thought that would be viable - estimating 50-65/head.  But maybe I'm wrong?

Fireseed was nice, but said they only do catering for their venues.
Gordon's returned my first call, took a message, and didn't call back.  I called one more time, no return call.
Magic Kitchen replied with an email that they would send a menu, but didn't.
Herban Feast said they couldn't work with my budget, as their buffet starts at $28/head and only having $50-65 head total would be insufficient.

Can anyone help with ideas?

Thank you!

We're a whidbey couple too!!! Check out avenue bistro in mount vernon. They will travel to oak harbor area and are fantastic! We LOVED them and their prices are between 20-30/pp  Their 20 buck option is so yummy

Some other catering ideas are Serendipity up in Coupeville.  The Bayleaf which is also in Coupeville.does an on site paella that may fit theme or budget.  I have seen people use the traveling BBQ companies or there is a mobile wood fired pizza company that comes out of Seattle.  I know that it does always come down to budgeting and it can be harder to find available caterers for parties under 100 but it is possible and the Island is a beautiful place to get married.  Good Luck.
