what extras is your reception hall giving you?

ok so i went in a couple months ago and noticed the round mirrors and votive candles on the tables - and i was told that they'd throw those in for free. then the other day i emailed asking about table number holders and she said she has 'em and can include those too.

what other things did your reception hall give you? i want to make sure i don't buy anything that i could potentially get for free!!

I would ask for an extra dish for cocktail hour or something like that.

Pasta course during dinner
An Ice Sculpter for cocktail hour
Suckling Pig for cocktail hour
Vienesse Trays at each table with the cake

My menu is so big, I didn't need too many extras.

An extra hour for free? That's great Jenn. I'm paying $3 a head for my extra hour.

We are getting an added pasta course to our meal and champagne and apps as the guests arrive to the ceremony. Oh and a strawberry to look like a tuxedo alongside our wedding cake.

What are you saying to the halls to get these 'extras'?

300 shrimp for the cocktail hour b/c I cannot have the centerpieces they include (allergic to flowers)...I just explained the situation and they threw it in for me!!!

When did you all get all these extras? Before or after you signed the contract? I've booked my reception hall a year ago...is it too late?

I got mines before signing the contract.
