Evening doo

So if I've got this right you're expects he 230ish for the evening? If so I'd cater for about 180 ish. Depends really what you're feeding the 160 beforehand.

i didn't include RSVP cards for evening guests but gave them a dedicated email address as well as our home address for them to send a card if they wanted. We got responses from about 80% and chased the others.

We are just catering for everyone we are inviting. All heads coming will be allocated for (we're having a hog roast for our evening food). We designed and made our own invites so included an rsvp card in every invite. The evening food is pretty pricey for what it is at our venue so would like to know exactly who and who not to cater for - makes sense to send everybody an rsvp I think!

I included an RSVP for our evening do. We needed to know exactly how many we were catering for and buy accordingly so we asked for RSVP's via the website. we still ended up chasing a few, but most people were really good x

Our venue suggests catering for all evening guests and 1/3 of day guests.

Thanks for the replies. Our day guest are having a five course dinner.

We were tod to cater for 75% for evening do. (Total). Apparently they still usually have food left. That's for normal buffet, if we'd opted for BBQ we'd have had to cater for everyone.

personally I always eat before an evening function so wouldn't eat any-I think that applies to a lot so that's why we were told 75%.

I asked for RSVP numbers on ours but expect plenty of non answers so we'll make an educated guess!
