200 people wedding

This week I’m showing you the big wedding reception I catered for friends earlier in the spring, and today I want to share the menu we finally landed on. The reception took place after dinnertime, and so the food was all small bites, with cake to follow. But I knew that a lot of people probably wouldn’t eat much dinner beforehand, so I leaned towards the heavy side of appetizers. Want to see what we served, and how we planned it out?

But where do you draw the line? How many people are too many? Weddings are about celebrating love—not just with your other half, but with the family and friends who have supported you. From college roommates to childhood besties, inviting your favorite people to join the wedding party is a thoughtful way to show appreciation. #weddingparty #bridesmaids #weddingplanning

Here’s the first piece of math required — estimating and calculating how many bites per person you are going to need.

As lavish as that weekend was, it turns out, those celebrations were only the beginning. The couple also held a Mediterranean pre-wedding cruise in May for about 1,200 people and yes, there's more. Head to the link in bio for an explainer of the many events surrounding the nuptials of Anant and Radhika. Spoiler…
