what extras are you having???

FH and I are going to start discussing what extras we want to have and how much extr we are willing to spend a head.

could you please share what extras you're having and if you don't mind...how much extra per head you're spending??

thanks ladies!

Originally it came down to about $40pp extra but we negotiated to $10.50pp extra.

VH with extra hour
pasta and intermezzo courses
2 extra stations at CH
wine bottles on table

i think that's it

We're doing sushi platters (2) at $200 per platter for the CH. That was a MUCH cheaper option than having the guys come at do a sushi station, which was like $5-10 extra PP.

I think my FH and I are paying for the VH...my mom said she can't afford it and we want it

And I want wine bottles at the table so we'll see

I wanted to add that it's totally fine that my mom can't afford it that my FH and I don't mind paying for it...if that sounded totally biotchy!

I was thinking of maybe having a cigar roller during cocktail hour but only if we can swing it ourselves, so still not sure.

As of right now we arent doing any extras... FH and i are waiting to see what our final head count it before we finalize any extras. We were either thinking

ice cream cart
Candy card
or
adding the VH to the end of the party. I really want the VH but then besides having to add the cost pp for it, we would also have to add the DJ and Photog for an extra hour. It may wind up being just too much.

So far I think seafood upgrade at cocktail hour and room uplighting from the DJ (that is if we have enough left over! Those would be out definite upgrades)

Re: what extras are you having???

I am praying for a VH and I really want a photobooth but we'll see!

We want to do:

• Seafood/Raw Bar for CH
• I want a signature drink which will probably have to be brought in special...so I guess it would be like a martini bar?
• Extra Hour
• Chocolate Fountain

I don't want to spend more than like 10 - 15 per head extra so we'll see what they can do for us!

OMG Evita, my FIL's wanted the suckling pig (FFIL is Filipino) but CHCC wanted to charge $500 for it!!!

So we didn't do it. Oh well.

We're just getting a mashed potato bar and specialty beer (the only things FH has shown an interested in planning this wedding) . But the VH is included in our package.

Re: what extras are you having???

the only thing we may add is sushi for the CH
otherwise everything we have standard is fine by us!

Ice Cream Sundae Bar. I already knew FH would want it, but when we visited RH together, that sealed the deal :)

Also, extra carving station and extra cold dish stations (as we are doing afternoon we decided on a buffet instead of a sitdown)

We are doing the VH, intermezzo and Raw Bar. Lighting and additional stations were thrown in.

I was going to do an extra hour but then you have to pay the music and photographer.
