Budget is one thing but Reality is....(EDIT)
Between the venue, photo/video, dj, florist, limo, church music, my dress, invitations, photobooth, groom's cake, and honeymoon, we are at $47,375 ugh
This doesn't include hair/makeup, tux, shoes, hair accessories, jewelery, bridal party gifts, card box, photobooth props, wedding favors, all of those other little things that I can't even think of, and TIPS. With all of that added in, who knows what we will be at!!!!

I had a budget in mine before we even looked at venues. once we looked at venues, that budget went out the window! lol, now I'm just trying to get the best quality for the cheapest price.

If we had any help I'm sure we would have blown the budget but since we're paying for it ourselves I've been really strict with it.

We are so far staying on budget, we've been super strict, but I am sure some other expenses will pop up and we may stray a little. So far so good though! We are paying for everything ourselves so its easy to not spend too much when I don't even have it! lol

I thought I could keep it at 40K, then it went to 50K, now its looking like 55K-which I have a feeling will be closer to 60K once it gets closer. ugh. kill me now

We have to stay under 30K, as we are paying for pretty much the entire wedding. It started at 20K then I quickly realized that was near impossible on LI :(

Our budget was $20k but it'll prob be closer to $30k when all is said and done. I'm doing a lot of DIY stuff though so that's keeping costs down a bit.

It will be around 25K. I am getting nervous with 3 weeks left because we still need to pay some stuff off and hopefully we can do it.

We thought we would be around 30K when we started planning but I think it's going to be more like 35K, not including the honeymoon, when everything is said and done. Everyday I think to myself, why didn't we just decide to elope and save all this money!

We really wanted to keep it around 15-20k, but realistically, it's going to be at least 25k.
