Kristin, I need to know, is this a 1 hour reception or longer? Also, is anything else being served? Write back.

Yes, this is a 1 hour reception and there will also be cake and punch, we were also thinking about serving pinwheels (around 750).

The fruits and veggies are OK, consider adding dips or dressings.
I would do at least 40 pounds of cheese and 20 pounds of crackers.
