Thanks! Shawna A friend of mine got married a few years ago and she hired a caterer to do an all vegan buffet for her. Her total budget for the entire wedding was $5,000, and so it had to be pretty reasonable to get the food. It was just wonderful! They first had a HUGE display of steamed asparagus, which I ate about 5 plates of. There was a very very big salad display and they offered pasta with 3 different sauces. The caterer also made some out- of- this- world appetizers. My friend had no alcohol at her wedding (they served little glasses of chai) so that kept the price down. Check with some caterers in your area and you might be lucky enough to find one who can cook vegan and do it for a price within your budget.

Guest guest Posted June 16, 2003 Report Share Posted June 16, 2003 I'm getting married in three weeks, and luckily for us, my fiance's Mom used to be a baker. Neither of us really care for regular cake, so we are having a vegan carrot cake instead. As for food, we decided to make as much as we can ourselves. The menu is going to include veggie platters, salad, a lentil wedding soup, and some sort of pasta dish. I found a great place for ideas though: http://differentdaisy.safeshopper.com/617/cat617.htm?9407 --stacy In a message dated 6/16/2003 11:39:44 AM Eastern Daylight Time, shawnam writes: Hi all...I'm getting married next summer and want to have a vegan wedding...does anybody have any suggestions for websites or ideas that I could use (we're also undera very strict, smallish budget).

Guest guest Posted June 16, 2003 Report Share Posted June 16, 2003 Hi Shawna! Congratulations to you! The paper VegNews did a great spread on this a few issues back. I should have it somewhere. I'll look around my piles. Maybe they can send you a back issue.
