I'm leaning toward a buffet reception in order to stay within my budget. Does anyone know of good ceremony/reception combination sites that offer a buffet option? If so, do you know what the price per person range is? Thanks!

Re: Buffet style reception locations?
I think most places can do buffets, you just need to ask. But keep in mind thatthis isn't always a cheaper option. They usually need to make more food because 1) people will eat more when they go up to a buffet rather than being served a ready made portion and 2)more food is needed to fill the trays so they don't look empty.
Good luck!

This is true. We got some buffet style quotes and they weren't any cheaper than sit down receptions. Unless you are just doing apps.

At my RH (The Old Field Club) it was the same price either way. HTH

Alot of places do buffet style and for a cheaper cost than sit down.
Leonards and Jericho Terrace are on of them. I know becuase I was quoted for both for Leonards and my sister when she went for JT.

I'm pretty sure the Watermill has a discounted price for a buffet.
What area are you looking in? Most halls should be able to do a buffet. Ask the halls that you're interested in what their prices are.
