Progress Report and Caterer Update

I thought I was done with progress reports in school, but I guess not.

Here’s where we stand after and including the last progress report:

We have

  • booked the location
  • booked the DJ
  • booked the photographer
  • sent most of the save the dates
  • got a friend to commit design the invitations (more on this later)
  • gotten 2 caterer quotes (more on this below)
  • stored my dress for the last 6 months
  • ordered the bridesmaid dresses

We’ll just go with this list for now. No need to bring attention to the mile-long list of un-done things.

The caterer situation is really in limbo right now. The tasting I thought we were going to have fell through because the event was cancelled. They have another big event coming in March. We can either wait to taste the food then (if the event is not cancelled again) or we can pay to have a private tasting before that. This happens to be the most expensive of the two quotes.

The other caterer sent us a very generic one meat-one starch-one vegetable-plasticware-coffee and lemonade quote. I really dont want run of the mill. Of everything at the wedding, I’m pretty dead set on this because I like food way too much to compromise. So I replied to them with this message and I’m still waiting for their answer. This, of course, is the less expensive of the two quotes.

I’m thinking all the other stuff not mentioned above in the back of my head. Right now though – it’s one thing at a time.

I can’t blame you at all for being unwilling to compromise on food. It is one of the things people will remember most. Sounds like things are going great so far! :)

Local sisters who cater fab food. I find them often on the art openings circuit, but they really stand out b/c they make awesome and atypical food. It’s not only pretty in presentation… it tastes fab-u-lous. Planning to use them soon for my bffs shower, but prices are pretty reasonable from what I understand.

Brown Bag It is really nice too. Can’t say it’s really inexpensive though… but her presentation is nice.
