Party Help price quote
We were thinking of having a party in the summer and I'm sick of rushing around I called a company to set up, clean up etc serve....
She said $275 for first three hours then $75 for every hour after. It would be two to three helpers. Is that bad?

Re: Party Help price quote
That's about $30/per person/hr.
Seems a little steep to me.
If you were having the affair fully catered I really doubt the caterer would be paying the servers $30 an hr. After tips I i'd think the wait staff would walk away w/ $15 -20/hr.
Got any friends or children of freinds who work in food service? See if they wanna make some extra $$.

Re: Party Help price quote
I think is a little expensive.. If it is 3 people it means you are paying $30 p/h p/p

Re: Party Help price quote
That price sounds fairly normal to me for catering. Most professionals (companies and individuals) are all around that same amount. If you are happy with that company, and want/need three helpers than I think it is fine. If not, I would suggest shopping around or hiring individuals/friends to do the work for you.

Re: Party Help price quote
This is Long Island, so yeah, that sounds right to me price-wise for this area.
