Today I have been uo high as a kite and then down so low.
I soent this mornin trying to work out a table plan with tables sizes that I could not work with. then it went from bad to worse when i contacted the venue about actual menu prices...we were quoted £22-£25 a person and was told to wait until 2 weeks before the day to contact them with final menu choices and get a full price.
The venue tried to charge us £30 a person but we have agreed a flat £25 a person as the food is fantastic and well worth it and we have been able to give a choice of 4 dishes per course. I am pleased at £25 a head a this is what we budgeted for that anyway. He is doing the kids at £10 apart from 4 that want half size adult portions. we were expecting a flat £15 a head so bonus there.
Then panic as our numbers have risen by 10 (due to my dad dying and inviting a few extra people to support my mum on the day) it seems he could not fit everyone in the room but he quickly suggessted the bar area which open into the room anyway..prefect soloution as we can put the teenagers and those with younger children in their as it is more spaciousd, this has freed up room in ther main room allowing more space between tables.
So 2 weeks to go and menu choices are all done, table settings are finished and I feel much more in control.
I feel excited for the 30th march to come now x
