The only thing that I had on your list was the percussionist and I think it was totally worth it. He wasn't expensive either. He was only $600. He was good and all the guests kept saying he cool he was and that it was a nice touch.

Re: Was it worth it??
se here had none of them and thought things were terrific. Also, my cousin loves to do the cigar thing on holidays with his brothers and usually stinks all the women out of the place so not sure if that would happen with a cigar roller??? just a thought.

I thought about the plasma screens but I am glad we didn't use them because everyone was dancing and it would have taken away from the party. As for the other things I don't think they are necessary because they won't make or brake your wedding. Something to think about...spend the money on your honeymoon or something people won't remember 1 year after your wedding?!? Hope this helps and happy planning!

I can tell you one thing...My DH Loves his Cigars. I wanted to have a Cigar Roller at the Wedding, but then we decided not to. I regret not having that, b/c it would of been nice to have something that my DH really enjoys.
Not sure if your DH is a Big Fan like my DH is???

of those things we had plasma screens...it was worth it only because it helped make our wedding different. DH has a large family and so many people have been getting married lately I sort of felt like we needed something that would make our wedding stand out from the rest.

the only thing we had out of those is the percussionist... it was well worth it! Anything you add to make the music better is worth it. People will care about the food & music... any of the other stuff gets forgotten unfortunately.

We had all 3 things--- percussanist, plasma tvs and the cigar roller and each one was Definitley worth it! The music was great, the tv's were great also because we had them show us before we walked in, the montage while eating dinner and pics all night and the cigar roller was awesome. All of our guests loved it, you rarely see that. So IMO yes, all was worth it.

Re: Was it worth it??
I forgot to make a budget oooops! For me I did not want those things. But I got a cake from Cakes By Jay rather than the halls cake which was included in the price, it was a lot of $$$ BUT for me worth it. Had a lobster seafood boat at CH LOVED IT but extra $$. If these are things you are dying to have at your wedding go for it but if you just think theyd be cool but you don't love them I'd say not go for it. Good luck!

we had teh percussionist and teh plasmas and I am sooooooo glad we had them! plasmas were and add on like 2 weeks before the wedding - i am so glad i got them i probably wouldve regretted it if i didnt

We had the plasma TV's and totally worth it!! We had two plasma TV's that we got through our photographer and they played our photo montage on it and throughout the night the pictures that our photographer took that day kept coming up on the screen - we got to see our proofs the night of. So many guests raved how awesome it was to see all our professional pictures day of!
