Hey! We are having at AHR mainly because my FI grandparents can't make it the destination and other family members. A few tips for you are: 1: look into community centres such as arenas, leisure centres, ect. - they usually have a nice sized 'banquet type room' you can rent that has a bar setup and a kitchen to use. We found one for around $100/hour any day of the week. Going this root allows you to do whatever you would like for the bar, food and decore. 2: hire a bar tender at $100/night (around 7 hours) they will also get tips! Stock your own bar with whatever you feel fits you. We budgeted our bar at $1,000 3: for food you can do a simple BBQ which would be cheapest root or find an affordable caterer online is the best place to search. Ask golf course F&B managers if they would be interested in a side job or if you know of anyone that works in this field. 4: as for decore keep it to a min. We are just doing centre pieces, table cloths and chair covers. And you already have your dj all setup hope some of this helps! Best of luck xo Kay
