Spinoff! Who on this site, do you think could spend the 4 Million Trista was given....

....and do it WISELY? What I mean by 'wise' is to spend it in the right places!!

My votes:

Sage
Marcellabella
Sonicstef
Jenny5150
Shamma

P.S. I am basing my opinion on their wedding photos, reviews, and general knowledge by way of this site...on how they planned their weddings!

4 million is a lot of money,,,,I think anyone could do a great job with so much money. No need to be creative with budgets!!!

The only wise way IMHO is to donate most to charity

Or my bank account

Edited to add:

Totally agree with Misty's picks

My idea for this post came from the Trista/Ryan thread, and a prevailing opinion that no one could really understand where or why the money was spent the way it was. I think it's easy to say that with no budget, anyone can do it. But we can see from last nights debacle, that's not always the case. These are the ladies from this site I would have liked to see spend that 4 million and how they'd do it! lol.

hehe - thanks for the honor Misty!!! I would love to see how I would do it too...but I don't dare to dream that big!! lol!!!

1 thing is for sure, I would want to see SonicStef plan a wedding with that much $$$!!!! Now that would be something....

Hey, if I had that much $$$ to spend, I would just ask Stef to plan it FOR me!! (for a generous amount of course!) LOL!

Dreaming still, again, if I had all that $$$, one thing I would have done was paid for all my guests airfare to Italy....

Yeah I guess you are right in the aspect that many comment on what tehy liked and did not.

I think we have all learned here..We all have DIFFERENT tastes! What was one's dream wedding....another might view as a tacky nightmare.

Maybe what the designer planned and Trista requested why did. after all she loved pink and it seemed even the designer stressed that 'trista wanted pink'. I would not blame the designer entirely.

LOL!! Thanks!! I don't think that I could spend $4 million, uhm, well maybe I could, but who knows.. it would probably involve flying all 250 or whatever guests to some remote island for like a week or something crazy like that..

This thread was meant to be fun. I didn't include myself in the list because I know I'd personally waste a heck of a lot of it. Don't take offense, I know we all could spend it, I am just not afraid to admit that some people can spend it much more wisely than ME!

No offense taken and I meant it funny.
I know I had super big dreams for my wedding on a small budget I really think alot of us can really take the 4 million and make a much nicer wedding than she did, more orginal, and more tasteful and beautiful.

But if I have to vote I 'd definately say SonicStef for sure!

I can envision T doing a whole winter wedding theme in like the Colorado mountains paying for all gazillion guests!!! As a favor, each guest received a fur.

Re: Spinoff! Who on this site, do you think could spend the 4 Million Trista was given....

All I know is that if SonicStef or MarcellaBella had $4 mil budgets you know you would not see any kind of SAND ART!!!

But I can't stop imagining what I would do with it....

Re: Spinoff! Who on this site, do you think could spend the 4 Million Trista was given....

Keep in mind that the almost 4 million included thier 1 million dollar payout. Also included was the price of the borrowed jewelry ( they get to keep the wedding bands only everything was given back). Her shoes was 50K, but they removed the 8 carats of diamonds after the wedding and replaced them with Swavorski crystals.

The location costs $750K, so I say technically the wedding was close to 1.8 million, even with that the most inexperienced bride could plan a slamming wedding and honeymoon!

Heck with that price I could've planned my wedding, honeymoon, paid off bills and bought a house and new cars and it would've all came out outstanding! Man - just the thought of it!
