I'm not hiring a caterer for our outdoor wedding in Oct. A friend of the family is bbq'ing and different people are making diffent items such as punch, cake, dips, beans, potato salad etc.
Just wondering how you were going to go about having
the food setup when there arent any caterers there.... hire "day of" servers? The reception is going to be outside and the reception space is visible from the ceremony. It would be wierd to have the food out before the ceremony and I do not want my family having to rush to the reception and get eveything ready while everyone is viewing the reception space.....thought about havinga mini "cocktail hour" (without cocktails), just punch and appetizers. This would give the family time to get the reception area ready.... but then I would worry about seating for the "cocktail hour"......HELP
Just let the guest wait after the ceremony till the food is set out and ready? any suggestions?
Re: not hiring caterer?!
