Yes, especially since most people tend to go out for dinner beforehand.

Oh, yeah. Everytime we've had eats, it's felt like we left much more than we ate. I don't even remember if we had any food at the F2F last year! We may have, but I just remember the drinking and dancing. And a lot of silly picture taking.
Any idea what a good dollar amount to put down on the bar would be? I mean, we have up to $1100 to spend on food and drink. That's a lot of drink.

We did have some food last year, and then the party in the bigger room took a liking to us and said we could eat from their buffet. Probably shouldn't count on that always happening.

No, I don't think so, heh. Still, we should have some food, so we don't get too overly stupid from booze. Their party platters average about $100 each and serve between 25-40. Plus, you can order half platters, that allows for a good variety. We wouldn't have to spend a lot of money there to get a reasonable amount of food.

Platters sound good to me. I agree that having a little food to offset the booze is a good thing.
And Sail, you are doing a great job. Please don't stress!
In terms of bar, I think we did a two or three hour open bar in NOLA. 9 to 12 I think? Do we need the bar to open at 8?

Or maybe the open bar was 9 to 11 and people bought their own after that? Can't remember. What were you thinking about that?

Our wings are not tired
Let's get a few half platters. At least one should be vegetarian friendly. Then I would say pay for a good amount of booze with the top shelf liquor.

Me, too, javachik - much squee.
I'm already pondering clothes for the prom.
