Hello
I am getting married this summer in our garden at home. We are currently receiving quotes from caterers and have been very surprised at how expensive the quotes are!
The range so far is £38-66 per head for 3 courses, but that works out as just the ingredients as such. nothing else is included, so by the time you add on chefs/waiters, cooking equipment, crockery hire, glass wear hire etc its more like £140 per head. That doesn't include evening food or canapes, or alcohol either...! It just seems such a lot, and a lot more than a restaurant where the price per head would include a chef etc
does any one have any thoughts on what to expect to pay? or even any thoughts on why the ingredients alone cost so much?
thank you!
