I’m going to turn to the only people that could possible have any fathom of an answer for me. We are having 82 guests, and an hour between the ceremony and the dinner (all at the same location). Right now our hors d’oeuvres menu looks like this, which includes fancy ones and platters, but I’m wondering if it’s overkill. I have no concept of what 82 people could eat in an hour, and afterward we are having a buffet dinner…
And yes, the prices are expensive because we are forced to use the most expensive caterer in the city due to its exclusivity contract with the venue.
Just how many hors d’oeuvres do we need? What would you do?
That seems like a lot of food considering you are ahving dinner afterward.
I think the 5 passed platters would be plenty.
Caould you do those and then maybe a fruit and cheese spread which is light?
I would worry that everyone would get too full before dinner started. They will probably be drinking too which can fill you up.
