Hey yall, so our vow renewal is set for nov 18th, and I wanted to know/ make sure my numbers were right. We were originally going to do a bbq for the reception but the cost was through the roof( quoted around 500 just for meat) so I had the thought of why not do thanksgiving dinner since its the week before and we will probably never get the chance to all be together again like this. So I was told to take my number of guest (40) and multiple it by either .50 to .75 (the amount of meat per person) and since we have big eaters (and I LOVE leftovers) I did .75, and got 30 lbs of meat. Let me know if I am right so far. so I planned on doing turkey breast (more meat less bones, easier to serve) and honey ham. So The turkey breast I get is from costco, its about 4 lb a breast, and averages about 16$ each. and the Ham is about 15$ for a 10lb one. so I figured 4 turkey breast, and 2 hams. Does that sound about right? I know someone will say just cater it, this is how I want to do it.
