Re: whats your budget?

That sounds about right. Be on the lookout for added costs as well as tax, gratuities, etc. Fiance and I went way over our initial budget price and we didn't even choose a lot of the 'extras'

Re: whats your budget?

My budget went out the window as well. I've changed my planning to get the best deal on what I want/need for my big day.

It's been going well until I added all the numbers together and almost had a heart attack but, for what we're planning on we're doing really well!

Re: whats your budget?

We are budgeting $15,000 for about 175 people. This is including EVERYTHING except my dress... we are getting married in February which is making this possible.... however, by the time tip and tax is added, we may be closer to $20,000.

Re: whats your budget?

when first discussing the wedding--even before our engagment. FH and i thought we could do it for 10K. but we then realized it would not work for us. so changed the budget to about 20K w/o HM--and we're already a teeny bit overbudget. but i know we'll make it.

We're guesstimating about $20,000 for 130 guests. We're crossing our fingers and hoping to not go overboard.
