Bride and Groom and Head Count
Do most banquet halls or caterers include the bride and groom in the final head count, so they have to pay for themselves as well?? My caterer is including us in the final head count and I''m having a hard time with that. Thanks!

[QUOTE]Wow, I thought that this was supposed to be a place to get some supportive feedback not to be bashed for asking a question. It has nothing to do with wanting a freebie so there's no reason to be so rude, it has to do with the principal. This was the first andlast post I will be putting on this site. Maybe you girls have nothing better to do than sit on this website all night and insult other people but I certainly have better things to do with my time.

The 'principle' being you paid a shitton so you now want a freebie? Yeah, try and dispute that and I will be shocked. Cheap.

Um, we're actually plenty helpful to brides who don't ask ridiculous questions. I live a great, non-pathetic life, thank you - my husband is cooking me dinner and I'm catching up with girls I haven't had a chance to chat with in a while in between playing with our dogs.

You don't know anything about her marriage, or anyone else's, for that matter. You can leave now. And seriously, brush up on the grammar.

If the girls that got married, never came back to talk about it, who do you think would give you advice? Because, ya know, if we didn't come back with all of our married-lady worldly wedding planning advice, no one would be here to answer your questions about paying for a wedding/food--assuming they hadn't experienced it themselves.
Also, how would you expect an answer for this or anything if everyone here was only engaged? They wouldn't know either.

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: Bride and Groom and Head Count : Question for you...would you rather take advice from someone who has been there, done that or someone who has never done it before? It = anything in this scenario.
Posted by lovethebeach16[/QUOTE]
Agreed. Newbies who come on here and try to give advice often give the worst advice possible. They suggest tiered receptions and asking for cash in wedding invitations. Take it from a bride who's been through it recently - the married girls are more helpful than the girls who have no experience to draw from.
