Wow, That's amazing!

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

$30,000 for 150 people sat night 5 1/2 hours...not including dress and HM ( moms paying for dress) but we are looking to be around $28,000 as of now, hall is about 14-15, photo,video,flower,dj came out to 10,000 so we are doing veryyy well

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

About $25-$28K for a Sunday night in April.

And that's including the honeymoon and tuxes and all the small stuff like postage and favors!!

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

We have our budget set at 25K, so far soo good. I have a feeling thats going to change though.

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

so far - for the church, hall, photographer & videographer & my dress we are up to $47,000.00 (thank goodness my parents are paying the reception & dress) - its almost insane how much weddings are costing these days!

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

when it's all said and done we'll probably have a bill totalling $80-85K and that's for a Saturday night wedding with approx. 230 people. It really hurts to see those numbers but we both really want a big wedding with all the bells and whistles and we're saving like crazy right now so hopefully when that bill comes in 17 months we'll be able to cover it.

edited because I re-did my budget and my estimate was wayy off

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

Well... at first we said no mre than 20 for everything but now I would say 25. ( fingers crossed)

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

When its all said and done I would guess aroung $65-70 for a saturday night wedding with about 220 people. Its an insane amount of money, but if I am going to do it, then I want to do it with all the extras I have always wanted. I'll be kissing my parents feet for the rest of my life for all the help their giving us!

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

25-30K, including everything

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

$30,000 budget is what we set for everything when we thought we were paying for it all, but FIL's are now helping so the budget is unclear,

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

everything all together will cost around 65,000 for a sat night in April...but that doesnt include the rehersal dinner or brunch the morning after the wedding....

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

between 20 - 30

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

30,000 not including clothes or honeymoon.

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

I would like to keep it around $25000 without the honeymoon!!

Re: If You guys don't mind me asking

About $60k for everything including honeymoon. SICK!
