Re: ok.. need more help.. backyard wedding people please read and others

I looked a little bit into doing it like this, but it was gonna work out to be almost the cost of the lower end places that we looked at, and then I had to do sooooo much more work. We did hire 2 teenagers, for 5 hrs, we gave them each $100 which worked out to be $20 an hour each no so bad, and they served and kept up with trash.. it worked out well. As for the porta potty issue, we had 90 people at our e-party all using 1 bathroom in my house(with cespools) and we had no problems, I did price them out and it was over $1,000 just for one decent toliet and sink. good luck!!

I paid $700 for 2 'VIP porta potties'.

I would say they were a step up from the 'construction site' version.

The dance floors I were quoted were between 1.4 and 1.7 per square foot. For the 15x16 that I wanted it came to roughly between 360 and 400.

I got lots of helpful tips from the girls here.

Here's the link just in case.
