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!
Wow that's great especially for a Sat. night wedding how did you do it???

Re: A question no one wants to answer
I believe mine will be over $35,000 (not sure how much over as of yet-- my dress was more than expected & our guest list still keeps on climbing-- so that is a killer right there!!!!!
Uggh!!! I am not very good at keeping to a budget-- I am trying though.... I am impressed by some of you girls-- able to keep your costs down!!!
I've been thinking it over--- I think it will be closer to $50,000 when all is said and done-- but that is including the Honeymoon. WOW-- way to much

$30,000, I know, YUK!
JUST ABOUT THE SAME - YUCK IS RIGHT
sorry, had to edit that is with my parents paying for the RH and Invites - we are paying everything else and also includes HM and wedding bands (2 each)

Re: A question no one wants to answer
That's a HARD Question to answer, it literally changes every hour!!!!
I am currently at 12G... but once all is said and done it will probably hit 20. I am okay with that. :)

Re: A question no one wants to answer
with EVERYTHING, 20K.... and we're having close to 200 people.
A lot of money, but judging from most other posts, it could have been a lot worse.
what saved us financially was having it at a low-cost hall... they gave us a great deal... also having it in February on a Saturday afternoon helped us from everything from the photographer, the band and the limos... as they will all be available to book a night event if they want and it's their low season. also booking with non-LIW vendors helped too.... since they're not so well-known, they were able to work with us on the pricing of things...

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!!!!!

Re: A question no one wants to answer
A wise man told me that you can take you RH price and double it to cover the cost of your wedding. Well, I wanted to spend what my rehersal hall cost. He was right. It is double.

Re: A question no one wants to answer
So far we have managed to spend about 36,000 and the only things I have booked so far are the RH (175 minimum..will actually be closer to 200) and band... already way more than intended...ironic considering we picked a winter date to SAVE money!
