It was $65 before tax and gratuity since i was in March in the afternoon but we are paying for all ourselves so it would be tight for us so we decided to just scale it down.

You're such a sweetie Quia! It's so true.

FH and I make GREAT money....but I'm paying for everything and refuse to go into debt for a one day event. I decided to cap my spending at 1/3 my annual salary. Figure out what the right number is for you. He is making the downpayment for our house and we're paying for our honeymoon together. We're both 30 and have a longer term view. In the end, it's about celebrating your love....people- those who truly care for you will have a GREAT time and will be honored to share this with you- whether you spend $50 or $500 per head.

Where is your new venue Gloria?

Probably pro dj, we are doing everything normal like limos, dj, photos but just smaller venue. Probably will be doing my own centerpieces. Also flowers!!
