Spinoff to Splurge Question

Original post by coxmandi

Here's a spinoff to the 'what did you splurge on' question.

How have your 'big ticket items' come out compared to what you thought you would spend???

Dress: on target
Reception: per person what I expected, but we are inviting more people than i thought, so it's coming out to be more
Photography: the max of what i wanted to spend
DJ: haven't found one yet
Video: not having one- so i added that $$ on to photog and it came out perfect
Florist: LESS than what i wanted to spend (Signature ROCKS)

honeymoon is not included....that's planned for in our World Cup budget...but I have an idea of what I WANT to spend.

Reception: More than I expected, actually more than we planned. But could not resist!
Dress: Mom's paying.
DJ: More than I planned.
Video: Less than expected.
Church (donation): Less than I planned.
Don't have photo, limos or florist yet.

Honeymoon: Didn't book yet. Hopefully not too much!
