My RH wants 25 extra pp for filet mignon. Do you think that when people don't see filet mignon they think less of the wedding ?????

THANKS :)

25 extra pp is ridiculous!!! That's an 'extra' that really isn't necessary.. im sure there are TONS of other amazing choices and believe me noone will miss the filet!!

thats crazy! I have filet Mignon with shrimp (Land & Sea) for one of the beef choices & chateu briand as the regular steak choice. Nothing was extra.

$25 extra is crazy, I can understand $10-15, but that sounds like a rip off.

Filet Mignon is included at my RH.. but if it wasn't there is no way I would pay $25pp for it!! Prime rib is just fine!

That is ridiculous - If I was you I would have tried ot negotiate that from the start - I did with Lobter Tails -
I am getting Prime Rib and Filiet Mignon - No extra charge

thats crazy. I certainly wouldnt pay $25 extra. I think $5 to $10 extra is fine, but I really dont think its necessary.

The only reason I upgraded to filet mignon was because it was FREE!!

I don't expect filet at weddings. If its there, great, if not, I won't thinnk anything of it. Won't even cross my mind.

Re: Filet Mignon vs. Prime Rib

forget the filet mignon---that's a RIDICLIOUS price to pay extra....they are giving you the shaft.

i do NOT think less of a wedding if i see prime rib--for me personally i think prime rib is a much more flavorful piece of meat....filet mignon can seem 'fancy' but if its not made properly it can be very plain!
