What should I know about prices for food?

Food Price Know-How

Be sure to get detailed quotes from your caterer in regards to specific food items. This is especially important to remember if you're planning for a wedding that's more than six months away. Perishable food prices can change; be sure you're prepared by asking these questions:

* Are you guaranteed the price on the food quote or can it change?
* Will you be charged more overall if the caterer's cost of food increases?
* How and when would you be notified of a price increase?
* Can you make substitutions?
