$10,000-$12,000 budget

Original post by MrsJC

Hi everyone! I am having a small breakdown over here and just need a little advice.
I have about a 10-12 thousand dollar budget for my wedding including venue, flowers, limos, photos, etc. Just about everything except the dress and chapel. I have about 100-120 guests to invite and my wedding is going to be in the winter of 2011.
Anyone have any tips on how to make this budget work with the amount of guests I will have? Where are some good places to shop for bargains? Tips on any DIY projects? Less expensive reception places?
I'm feeling very overwhelmed at the moment!


...I think I may need to find some way to increase my budget.

Definitely try Ariana studios work with Jeff he works with many halls and is able to work out packages in any budget as I was working on one also. My brother refers to him as the wedding guru , they did a great job at his wedding.

i'm totally on the same page with you. we haven't made any plans yet but i don't want to even think about going over 10-12k.

i love wedding stuff but it IS just ONE day.

i'm thinking we are going to do an evening reception and just do drinks/dessert and loads of dancing.
