Consider having the reception at a place that is not in the "wedding" business.

Places in the wedding business charge more because, let's face it, they don't get a lot of repeat customers, so they have to soak you while they can...

We've been heartily exploring our options along this line, but unfortunately the food's become the big expense. We just can't seem to find a way to feed 200+ people other than a caterer.

If we could feed the entire guestlist in Grandma's backyard we'd be all over it at $9900 in the black and just as happy.

Congratulations and best wishes.
