A question no one wants to answer

Ok girls here it is..

Q: Up to this point in planning how much is your wedding costing you?

Re: A question no one wants to answer

I figured the entire total out last night and it's only costing around 14k. That includes everything down to the glue for the letters...everything! I went 4k over budget but I knew I would so I actually stayed in my budget

Don't show this to you know who!

Re: A question no one wants to answer

I think at the end of the day I will stay close to $17K or $18K.

I'm anal like Jiffy so that will include postage, glue, crystals, mini moon, paint and all. All expenses must be accounted for cause I just like to know.

Re: A question no one wants to answer

all said and done mine will be $12,000 .. of course me and fh are doing it all so it is $12,000 to much

Re: A question no one wants to answer

After all is said and done we will probably be aroune 13k. When you set your budget at 10,000 you try not to go over too much.

Re: A question no one wants to answer

I wanted to keep the budget low. At the end i think i will spend 20, 000. How are you keeping it under that. The hall alone came to 9,500 and thats at 75pp. AHHHHH!!!!!

'you' meaning us, or how much is the wedding costing? Cause I have my dad, mom and FMIL chipping in so far.
Dad $5k (reception)
FMIL $1k (DJ)
Mom $750 (my dress, veil, hotel)
Me $500-$700 (flight to NY, BM gifts, stamps, Photo. deposit)
so far
Total: $7450
My budget (of my money to spend) is $10k, not including dad's $5k.

Re: A question no one wants to answer

$6000 total for a DW in Disney, including airfare hotel, all the good stuff

This does not include the HM, which is a gift to us from FH's parent's. We splurged on the HM at 4K.
