Money Monday: Cocktails Anyone?

Okay, quick; what is your FAVORITE part of a wedding?  Of course, the cocktail hour. You have a glass of wine, a delicious little bite, maybe a portable plate of pasta or stir fry and the chase to mingle with all the other guests.  It's perfect.  And it's usually cheaper. Your DJ or band can make time to showcase toasts and dances and all the other events you want to include, but cost is often more than 20% cheaper that a sit-down dinner.  

If you're going to choose this style of wedding, you still want to make sure you have enough food (unless it's an short afternoon celebration).  In addition to the passed offerings, you'll want to have a cold display of cheeses, fruit, breads, and probably a carving station, pasta station and another hearty choice like a mashed potato station.  (And of course you'll have cake!)

If you have cocktail tables, your centerpieces will cost less too, and more important? Your guests will have a ball!
