LOL Sage, you were one of the 5 I would say could spend that money wisely!

Over a million on jewels, PLEASE!

15,000 for that cake (even though it looked awesome!)

100,000 for that ugly dress

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

add to that list
30K on gift bags
I belive it was 1.25M for jewelry

LOL!!! Thanks Misty!!! I think I could certainly try, but it would be tough....even for ME!!

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

I thought the shoes were more expensive than 8K...The episode where she was with the designer, I thought they were 50K or something really insane like that. I might be wrong though. He kept saying it would be the most expensive bridal shoe EVER

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

Yeah, the shoes were more like $50k, and I think the linens were something like $60k, and food maybe $15k
Also, that wedding planner must have gotten a nice chunk of change for planning that mess.

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

The shoes were 8 carats, not 8 thousand!!!
Definitely like 50K for those shoes! lol

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

Well lets see besides the dresses and jewelry, I think they said they spent 500,000 in flowers and 200,000 in catering....the food was probably really good. And the site cost money to host it there as well.
Oh and the gifts bags they gave to everyone had alot of stuff in them.....what about photo and video - she probably had celebrity photojournalists.

And the china - they had lenox exclusively make their pattern and crystal glasses.

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

I can see that the site fee would be a lot since they had to rent out the entire place for a week...

but 1/2 million on flowers?
and the kicker $100K on her ONE dress!!! I think ABC was trying to look great...

I couldn't stand the wedding of the decade...the wedding since Charles and Diana...the wedding of the 3 years old century...

I turned it off after Trista walked down...

my friend went to PT school with her and she said she was exactly like that...baby talk and crap...my dog actually looked up in horror when she was doing here stupid voice

I thought the pink was too much. They even had the walls draped in pink at the reception. It should of been on off white color. The chairs shouldnt of been pink too. Too much pink. The helecopters were terrible! I didnt think her hair, makeup or dress were anything great. With all the money into it, I was thinking it would of been alot more. All in all, I think they are very in love. I was so taken back when he wrote that song for her. All I could say is 'WOW'

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

I watched the entire wedding too. I really thought the pink was a little much and her hair and make up were horrible.

I was a little disappointed that they didn't show any of the reception except the first dance. I would of liked to see much more of that.

I did love the cake!!!

With all the anticipation leading up to the ceremony, was anybody else a little bit bored when it began? I waited close to 2 hours and read the paper instead!!! Ditto on the hair! I can't believe everyone else noticed that as well!!!

ETA: There didn't see to be much emotion or anything!!

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

Ok I am not sure if this was in the post but Estella was hanging out of her outfit. She needed some double sided tape. I did not like either of Trista's dresses. I think they could have had something better. And the shoes. She could not walk in them at all. She needed some practice. But whatever, as long as they are happy and feel they made the right decision.

The play by play on TV is driving me nuts!!! Just shut up and let them get married. I like Chris Harrison but enough already!!

ETA: I feel like I am watching a sporting event!

AMEN to that, Wendy! I thought ABC's production of the event SUKKED last night...what they heck is up with the 'on location' crap with Charlie and the other woman??? They totally produced the hell out of the whole thing, and it felt so staged and cheap!

I felt bad for all the parents, too. The most important day in their childrens' lives was completely over-powered by 'production' crews and helicopter noise. You could see them all looking up into the sky, and totally hating it! But NOT Trista - she was the only one that seemed excited and down right PLEASED to have such intrusive noise during the ceremony. She is TOTALLY in this for the publicity, IMO. Poor Ryan!

And, did anyone catch the huge edit job ABC did on the Bob/Estella mini-interview, when one of the 'sportscasters' was saying...oooh, this could be you guys, too...the TOTALLY edited in a clip of Estella smiling from ear to ear - you could TOTALLY tell it was not continuous in real time. Oh well, they are splitsville anyway!

I think the reason she didnt wear a tiara was because of that HUGE necklace she wore - it wouldve been too much IMO.

LOL !!

I would have preferred the tiara and NOT the necklace

I noticed that too...although I loved it when everyone on the Fire Island Ferry cheered during our ceremony...
