Catering Your Own Wedding Reception
”I do – …just let me check on the chicken…”
…we’re kidding ;-)
Cost for your wedding reception? The caterer will charge $1,000s, lots of ‘em… But you already know that.
But - "Can we do it?"
“We have soooo much going on with the wedding. How could we do the reception?”
Start Planning your Wedding Reception.
Answers to Common Questions:...or use Ask-a-Caterer for a fast, personal relpy to your wedding food questions.
1. Will I have enough time? Plan with Reception Planner. Most of our recipes are designed to be prepped days in advance, or longer.
2. Even the cake? Wedding Cake - $75 cake feeds 150.
3. I want something really nice. So do we. Check out Elegant Reception. Nice enough?
4. Who will help us? Helpers – read how to find kitchen crew, servers and more, what their jobs will be, and how to find a pro if you need.
5. How will I know what to buy? All of our recipes come with detailed Shopping Lists. Get and idea with Salad Nicoise.
6. The food won’t be good. Our food is great! Read Baked Salmon – it’s good. Really good.
7. But I'm not a great cook. Party Planner FAQ's. "Step by Step Photo Recipes." You can do this. You can.
8. Our kitchen is like suitcase size... Home Kitchen helps you stretch it into shape.
9. Things won’t look “professional.” You’ll be Renting and using the same gear the pros do.
10. My family will be disappointed. Naw – they’ll be too busy helping you!
11. I’ll be a nervous wreck. You’ll be too busy too. And we’ll be here to talk you down, and through.
12. We want a well-stocked bar. Bar & Beverage Planner tells all.
13. What about the ??? – whatever it is, chances are we’ve been there – solved that. Ask Us – it’s free.

14. $28,000??? It won’t be as cool as my friend’s (that cost $28,000.) Hopefully the $23K you’ll save will be cooler.

Best Food Warmer, our most popular, really inexpensive, home party perfect!
Our favorite knife - we use it 85% of the time. Cheap knifes should be illegal.
Party Food MUST! Food safe and savory, have one in my pocket now.
Great occasional use, best all purpose size, with lid, priced right.
Caterer's use real Bases for sauces, soups and more. Amazon has all the different flavors.
This disposable chafer is ugly, but it works great, especially back in the kitchen.
THE best caterer's cookbook ever, for serious party food. Written for devoted cooks there's nothing better.
Believe it or not, you can stir 350^ oil with this spatula. We use ours everyday.
