[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - Thanks to everyone for the suggestions. I think we are in good shape re: fees / tutoring (some family help there). Since so many people are coming from out of town, it is the social side that has me more concerned. I like the idea of a luncheon after the service, followed by a party at home for the kids (perhaps a slumber party?).

Have people ever hired the waitstaff / linens / tables / chairs, but then gotten all of the food from a local restaurant in chafing dishes. My daughter loves Indian food, and keeping it vegetarian might be a fun, reasonably priced option.  Any thoughts or suggestions on that?[/quote]

Yes.  I did just that, bought a few extra seeing things, hired a staff of two.  Party in my house.  Upstairs for adults, just your standard house party with better food.  Kids down stairs with two tvs and two game boxes.  I hired two teens from shul to make sure things down stairs were good.

Brooks party rentals for tables.  Turned out it was cheaper to buy linens.  Just googled cheap wedding tablecloths or something.

For my kid, this was just right.
