Usapang pera

Jaims and I were talking last night about the number of guests we will be considering for the catering services. Originally, we decided to get Eloquente's 150 package because of the extras (tiffany chairs for the sponsor + cake or sound system with bubble machine). But then I realized that what if not all in the list were able to come, sayang naman P290 per head na binayad namin. Besides Jaims had talked to his tita and she said that caterers usually include a buffer just in case the no. of guests exceeds the original count.

If we would only account for 120 guests, our package would fall under the P300/head. So total costing would be:
P30,000 (for 100 guests) + P300 (per head) * 20 = P36000
P36,000 * 1.17 (12%evat + 5%service charge) = P42,120
P42,120 + P2,500 = P44,620 (P2,500 is for the sound system which is supposedly free if we avail the 150package)


The original 150 package would cost us P51,000. We will be saving around P6,000 which we could use for bridal car or emcee or OTD coordinator, whatever Jaims and I have decided.
