Hi we are getting married 17th oct 2014 and have just starting planning everything. We are booked in for a 3.30 wedding at the register office then at a hotel for a 3 course sit down meal for family and close friends, about 40 in total. Then we was having an evening reception with a dj and making the numbers up to 100 and having a buffet. however yesterday i was with the hotels wedding co ordinator and she was going through everything and because the wedding is late and the meal wouldnt finish til about half 7 she suggested we didnt have a buffet . i said i didnt want to look tight so she came up with the idea of a candy and popcorn table which would save us about £500. H2b thinks its a good idea but when i mentioned it to someone at work she said ppl will expect to be fed. The wedding is on a friday so the wedding co ordinator thought that the ones that are invited to the evening will have been at work and as the reception wouldnt start til 8 that they would prob have their tea as normal as long as we have worded the invites properly. Just wondered what other brides opinion was of this?
