My FI and I were just talking about how nobody will remember the food anyway, so as long as the rest of the wedding, (venue, bar, etc.) is great, I say go with the cheaper place. Trust me, people would rather have average food and an open bar than great food and cheap everything else. Just my opinion... good luck!

So my FH & I love the Stroudsmoor Country Inn & we're going to see it on Tuesday & while the prices are very fair compared to many things we've seen, we've had to cut our guest list A LOT to be able to afford it (we're down to 140 & we still have to cut more b/c the $ leftover will not cover all the other things we would have to book)....Also, for the bar, we can't even afford to provide mixed drinks/liquor for our guests which we don't feel right about (it would be beer/champagne/wine instead) Then I found Penn's Peak, where all my mom's side of the family grew up (Jim Thorpe)- It is conveniently located, works with our rustic theme (wood inside, pretty views) and the menu is very inexpensive.... With it being so inexpensive, we could have our entire guest list (175+) and feed them all prime rib (hypothetically- they would have 3 choices) and have a preimum 4 hour open bar, etc. I'm just afraid the food is going to taste terrible because the prices are so low and the place is primarily a concert venue- They don't give us tastings (even if we pay) until AFTER you've booked with them (scary) and I can't find almost any reviews about the food for weddings (there is a separate bar restaurant called Roadies that does not have the same chef/kitchen/food that does have reviews online) I don't know what to do :( HELP!
