Guest guest Posted July 16, 2003 Report Share Posted July 16, 2003 Melody, You should RSVP with a hand written note over the meat options saying you are vegetarian. I am 99% sure their caterer will make a veggie option available for those guests who pre-requested one. best, denise _______ Message: 2 Tue, 15 Jul 2003 04:43:27 -0000 " veggielo " <melodyo Wedding Etiquette Hey everyone, i need some help. My little cousin is getting married in September and on the RSVP form it only gives the options of chicken or steak... How do i politely request to not be served either one? I have no problem with just a salad and would not want them to have to spend the $40 or whatever to serve me a poor animal i have no intention of eating. All the weddings i've been to in the past have either had a veg option or were served buffet style... any thoughts? thank you so much! cheers melody - <sfBAVeg > <sfBAVeg > Tuesday, July 15, 2003 7:25 PM [sfBAVeg] Digest Number 633 > > BAY AREA VEGETARIANS (BAV) is a community group for veggies to network & find > support.
