Is this normal?

I calle dthe girl at Villa Lombardi's that I deal with and I can't do my own menu cards, I can either takke the regualr ones which just list the 7 choices for dinner, or I can have them make me personalized one's with the entire menu for $2.50 per menu, limit of 100.

Also is $2.50 alot to spend on them?

I do not understand why you can't do your own.

I would definetely fight this.

$2.50 is not a lot, but is it going to look the way YOU want it- NO.

They said they don't let outside one's because they need to be triple checked, and they ahve had problems with outside ones.

They are a_nal about everything.

$2.50 is ALOT for menus!!!

Our place wanted to see a copy of the menu before they would ' approve' it. Why dont you have one made up (or make it yourself) then bring it to them to see it. As long as everything is listed properly, I do not see a reason why they wouldnt let you do it!!

yeah, that is a lot when you think about how much it adds up to...If she doesn't give in, I would ask to speak to someone above who you're dealing with.

wow I didnot think $2.50 is alot I was getting custom made quotes for that much or more, but what do I know?

Please fight this though.

I would talk to her, tell her you are doing them yourself & you'll bring in a sample for them to proofread. It makes no sense foryou to pay for something you can, and are willing, to do yourself.

michelle...I had the hall do the menu cards for me...it was one less thing to think about...but if you want something to match programs on the plate you could put a thank you card on each plate...

thank you for sharing our day, yada yada yada...

I got married at Villas too, and decided to go with their menu cards. They do NOT allow you to do your own.
In the long run, it does seem like a lot of $$, but it was well worth it. My dad isnsited on doing it. He said I was paying enough, what is $200 more

Plus, now that they have 7 choices to chhose from, it makes the ordering of food so much eaier, and quicker.
I thought it was worth it
