We are spending probably close to around 17000. The only thing that I just had to have 'extra' is the videographer. For me it was a necessity. Everything else we really scaled back on.

We will probably come in around 20-25k. We didnt really set a budget either but were being very economical about our choices and decisions.

We are at about $40K not including honeymoon and engagement ring and the watch I bought him as a wedding present. I think we could've done it for less if we cut out some extras and if I didn't have a shopping addiction lol but whatever its a once in a lifetime event.

im thinking $34 that is for 175 people and doing our own centerpieces. I want to try to make some money back. that assuming everyone gives about 200 each, i know its wont happen so if we spend 10 in the end ill be okay.** this does not count honeymoon

When we first got engaged last October we were like oh, 15k for the whole wedding, we can do it and get married Dec of 2012...Boy did we have a Rude Awakening!! haha so we decided to wait so we could have the wedding of our dreams, because it is a once in a lifetime thingNeedless to say our venue alone blew that budget out of the water. We never set a new budget after that though. I also have gotten my first choice of vendor for everything so far and need to start being a little more compromising. With what is booked so far we are over 30k. I'd estimate that we will in the low 40s not including the honeymoon. We are always working so we never see each other but we're gonna have one sick wedding and we will earn it lol Its crazy its all for a 12 hour day though..that part makes me want to throw up
