FOR THE LAST THREE MONTHS I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO PLAN A WEDDING AROUND A BUDGET OF FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS. ALL ITEMS SUCH AS WEDDING DRESS, AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE ARE FINISHED. MY REAL PROBLEM IS TRYING TO FIT IN A WEDDING CEREMONY AND THE RECEPTION MINUS THE FOODS. I HAVE BEEN FORCED TO START OVER AND OVER. WE ARE NOT GOING WITH A CATER, AND WOULD LIKE IT TO BE OUTDOORS WITH SITTING CAPACITY FOR 200 PEOPLE. HELP ME SOMEBODDDDDDDDY.
To invite guests to a wedding ceremony and a reception without offering any sort of refreshment would be poor etiquette. If funds are low you can have the ceremony at 2PM with a cake and champagne reception immediately following. Perhapss you could solicit the help of a family member or friend that loves to bake and would like to help you out by baking the cake.
I just watched a television show over the weekend on the Food Channel called Semi-Homemade with Sandra lee and she did an entire wedding menu with tips and advice about how to make the food, place cards, etc. yourself and save money. Click here to go to the site and review her wedding menu on a budget.
Good luck! Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
