Ok, we are goign overseas in a few months to get hitched with the kids and that's about it. Really looking forward to it, it'll be relaxed and just us to think about.
Anyway, dh, really wants our reception at home. He wants a BBQ for about 50ish people. Initially i agreed and found a butchers to come and do a hog roast type thing and we'd supply all drinks etc. Make it look pretty. But even though i love house parties, i can't help but feel it'll be me who organises all of it, stresses about the house, garden and all being tidy etc.
I've found a lovely relaxed pub, who've said we can have the bar area with a disco for £12 a head for a cold buffet. They'll do all the cleaning, setting up etc. It'll be stress free for us. We won't have to stress about whether it's raining or not!
DH, reckons it'll cost a lot more at the pub, but surely by the time we've hired plates, glasses, drinks it amount to about the same. I'd estimated the pub do with food and disco will be approx £800
Can i have your thoughts, am i being unreasonable to not want this at home?
