How much is your wedding costing you??

Including your honeymoon, how much is your wedding costing you? Also include the amount of money that anyone spent on your wedding(ie. parents paid for wedding gown, etc.)

I voted and other than someone just giving us a few hundred dollars recently, FH and I are doing everything ourselves. It's so overwhelming sometimes

I picked the 15-25K choice but that doesnt inclue the HM because FH is paying for all that w/ his own $$. He estimates HM to be between $3-5K or so (we plan to do an all-inclusive resort).

My parents paid for my dress so that was $600 that wasn't covered by me. My shoes and DOJ was another $100-150. Hair/Makeup for myself and MOB/MOH: $ 400.

Broken down, I estimate my vendor costs for a 50-75 guest wedding to be:

(1) RH: $ 6K
(2) Photo/Video: $ 4K
(3) DJ: $ 2,300
(4) Florist: TBD

we are spending about 65k with the honeymoon included. My parents and FILs are giving us about half of that and then FH and I are paying for the other half.

Its a small wedding, only 50-75 guests or so (neither I nor FH are inviting OOT's or co-workers, plus neither of us have big families as we are both 'only' childen)

I spent 3-5 months shopping for RH's and always wanted a Fall wedding. It was either Sept/Oct or Nov 2010 and after checking all the Long Island RH's out, Leonards of Great Neck gave me the best deal (under $65/pp for a min of 50 heads).

With taxes/gratuity, it comes to about $ 4,000 and I plan to add extra carving stations, sundae stations, chocolate fountain which will bring up the total cost to around 5-6K or so...(*fingers crossed*).
