* hair and make-up for bride

THANKS GIRLS

Re: Average Cost Of....

My invitations came to 300 for 125 invitations and envelopes, response cards, and lined inner envelopes, but it all depends on what you want, I saw some invitation that were 10 per invitation, if you wanted handmade ones.

I am paying 2000 for video, but I upgraded the package, from the basic one for about 1500.

I am paying about $5 per couple for the favors, but this also depneds on what you want. I am doing to favors, jordan almonds and this aromatherapy hears/ornaments.

I am not sure about chair covers.

Limos - I am not sure of their price, but if there is goignt o be more than one stop they usually want you to do a three hour package.

Hair and makeup varies also, and I haven't gotten these prices either.

Hope I was of some help.

* invitations - about $3-$5 each with RSVP card, thermographed
* videographer - $1K-$2K
* chair covers - $3-$5 each, but you can negotiate for the hall to throw them in for free
* favors - whatever you want to spend
* hair and make-up for bride - at least $200 total for them to come to you, but I think the avg is closer to $300

* invitations: we paid about $400 but they can be much more or much less (also don't forget to include your postage, seal, thank you cards and all that stuff in your budget as well)
* videographer (I would say from about $1500 - $3000)
* chair covers ($5 -$8 per chair...some places told me they charge a set up and removal fee which was about $75.00)
* favors: I would say average is about $5 each but you can find stuff cheaper (don't forget to include wrapping paper, ribbon and that type of stuff too)
* limos (to church and then from church to reception for bride and groom and bridal party): I can't remeber...sorry
* hair and make-up for bride: I would say somewhere between $150 - $300
