vendors?

Hey guys! i'm new to the board here....thinking our wedding will be in May 2012. We recently started looking at a bunch of places.

but i was wondering if any1 could give me ideas as to how much vendor prices range? or what the average is? i've heard DJ's can be 2,000 or 3,000 is that accurate? and photographers can be 3,000 to 5,000 is that accurate? what about limos? and flowers? (not centerpieces tho) thanks so much!

also, if any1 can tell me about Jericho Terrace's vendors prices that would be great!

I don't know if you can really give an 'average' for vendor cost, b/c there really is a 'low' 'middle' and 'high' range for EVERYTHING.

I don't know who JT's vendors are but I'll give you a list of mine and what they're costing me. Obviously, things like flowers, photo, etc. are going to be hard to estimate b/c it really depends on how much you want. Flowers generally range depending on what KIND of flowers you want.

Flowers - Flowers by Brian - $4000 (my centerpieces are high but they are mostly roses and hydrangeas which tend to be the 'cheaper' flowers. My bridesmaid bouquets are $85 each and my bouquet is $225)

Band - Code Bleu - $7000 (5 hour reception and cocktail hour = 6 hours total)

Photographer - Duet (I basically got 'the works' from them)

Hope this helps and welcome to the boards! There are threads about prices of RHs based on certain months of the year and with the search feature you can basically find WHATEVER you want.

First thing would be to figure out what type (style) wedding you want...and how much your budget will be... That will help you determine what vendors you use. I am having a small wedding 50-75 ppl, and was able to find vendors reasonably priced for my budget.. My flowers are low and beautiful and not expensive... Using a great dj, that was like 1400. We aren't doing all the bells and whistles.. Once you have a plan, post here and people can have a good idea of places that suit your budget as well as other vendors.. Happy planning....

thanks so much guys! Flowers by Brain is one of JT's vendors and i think i'm not going to do flowers as centerpieces....i went to a wedding where the centerpieces were 3 candles on 3 tall candle holders on top of a mirror with fake flower petals (couldnt tell tho) scattered around the mirror...it was very pretty.
