Food

Beware the budget buster! Feeding people is expensive: fact. A conservative price for a three course meal with coffee would be around £25 ($55) a head not including wine.

You have two options here.

First option, have a small ceremony and meal and have a big party in the evening. Cut the ceremony and meal to immediate family only and invite extended family and friends for the evening reception (this is what I did). Remember everyone at the ceremony should be invited to the meal (if there is one), and you will be expected to provide the wine too.

Second option, have a later ceremony which progresses straight into the evening. If you have the ceremony at four or five in the afternoon, by the time it is finished all you need provide is a buffet. You should expect to pay around £5 upwards a head for a buffet although prices range dramatically.
