What you save in service cost, you’ll spend in extra food. As you can imagine, caterers do not want to run out of a certain dish, so many will begin by pricing out serving each dish to 100% of your guests (i.e. - assuming that every guest will eat one serving of every item). This is not only wasteful, bu...

Candy Buffet I thought it might be fun to feature some guest bloggers on the Project Wedding blog just to get some variety in point of view. Our first guest post is from my dear sister Kathy, who recently designed a candy buffet for her very best friend from high school.     Photos by Hin Man When Kathy was planning this candy buffet, she asked me for some tips.
