hello!  I recently got engaged (finally!), me and my husband-2-be have started the planning and have chosen a list of 5 hotels (3 stars). I would appreciate it if anyone could inform me of the average price per guest for a wedding reception?  I have spoken to a few friends but they were unsure as they got married a few years ago (they estimated €60 per head?). Any help would be greatly appreciated, Tks :)

Hi, we've booked our wedding

Hi, we've booked our wedding for August 2010 and at the time of booking we were quoted €45 per person. Last february we met with the manager and explained that we had received a cheaper quote and we were thinking of cancelling the wedding in that hotel. Much to our surprize the manager dropped the price to €35 per person. He also dropped the price of the afters and the wine. Needless to say we were thrilled!! It is well worth going back to hotels and haggling, and quote the dreaded word "RECESSION". Besta luck!!!

Hi Longford Bride,

€60 per head is way too much.  I agree with Brown Eyes, you have to haggle to get a better deal.  In this climate most hotels will be glad of the business.

Hi lisaanddennis, No need to

Hi lisaanddennis,

No need to panic about that price for a package deal.  €77 per head is a great price for what you'll be getting.

I think the prices discussed in previous posts are just for the meal (not including wine, cocktails etc).
