I went to a wedding last night and was really stuck for what to eat. When I got my invitation we were given a choice as to what meats we wanted. I left that blank, thinking that I would give my husband whatever they served me. I didn't want to be offensive to the bride and ask for special food as were were just friends of the family. I know that not everyone is a vegan or vegetarian, but I expected some consideration. When we were seated, I told the waiter that I would not eat the meat served but may I please get extra vegetables. No luck. I had a few string beans and one potato. Needless to say I was a bit hungry and ate when I got home.
Anyone have any suggestions as to what I should have done?

Maybe you should have given them a warning that you weren't going to eat meat and that you wanted a double of portion of vegetables instead. It prolly wouldn't have been a hassle to make one more serving of vegetable for the catering staff. :)
