Vendor Meals

Hiya Ladies

Does anyone have a list of vendor meals for photographers / ect??


Thanks!

Also - do I suggest this to the photographer?

I wonder if they can have some of our wedding food?

Our BEO just lists it as a vendor meal. I don't have the paperwork in front of me but I want to say it is only $24 or something so that is way cheaper than adding another person to the buffet.

You don't get to pick what your vendors get for their meals, but it's usually a deli plate. As emilymad said, it's a way to feed your vendors for less than it would cost to add them to the head count for your $$$ wedding meal.

Vendor meals are significantly less than your normal cost per person, usually less than $20 per plate. It is always chef's choice, typically a deli plate, but the chef will occasionally give up a regular meal to your vendors, depending on availability.

Hope this helps!

We had our vendors eat the same meal as our guests. It was at the same cost but the way I looked at it was that my photographers were going to be working for 10 hours or more. Would you be happy with just a sandwich to eat in 10 or more hours? I told them to help themselves at the cocktail hour and with drinks from the bar (non alcoholic of course). I'm also glad that I spoke with my photographers about it because they were both vegetarians and had they received a deli plate they wouldn't have been able to eat it. This worked well for me because I had two photographers that worked as a pair so they were able to trade off. I wanted them happy so they would be able to their best.
