You are correct. Our caterers didn’t provide alcohol, and our price was $200 per guest (yes, we had fancy food), meanwhile they priced their vendor meals at $35 per head.
Definitely push back. Everything is negotiable.
be included in that package price. Is the caterer just trying to make some additional $$ or is it normal for vendors to have alcohol covered?
Pro
My vendor meals were $49 bucks a head. They did not get what the guests got. Chicken, veggie, roll, chocolate cookie if memory serves me correctly. Still over priced, but way less than even just the guest meal. They got non alcoholic beverage or water. Definitely not in the alcohol count.
They are working. They are not consuming beverages all night ( maybe water on a break). They are not eating cake, not drinking. This was the price range/policy for every single place I previewed. Push back.
For reference that was in 2024 and did not include tax and manditory gratuity/ service charge which I think was 25%
Our vendor meals are $40/person. Definitely does not include access to open bar. Push back
