Since we're all looking to have an amazing wedding but with cutting costs whereever necessary, I thought I'd ask...what's your wedding budget?
Dress? Hair/Makeup? Cake? Cake Topper? Shoes? Invitations? Receptional Hall? DJ/Band? Limos? Honeymoon? Wedding Rings? Flowers? Photography? Videography? Did I miss anything else? All the little extras....

Im just going to simply state that we are now $15k over our origional budget. I think when we came up with our origional budget, we had no idea how much everything actually costs.
I get a little sick in the stomach every time I think about it....

I know, I should spend more, but I'm poor...lol
I was watching Platinum Weddings last night the the girl spent over $300,000 and I was like- 'what's with those chairs at the RH. I would have rented better ones'. Hey, in the midst of $300,00, what's another $20,000 in chair rentals...lol They weren't nice- haha

that's awsome! it must feel so good to stay under budget. as of right now we're under too, but i havent even looked at florists or limos yet, and i dont have a gown... but i think we'll be able to do it

I keep telling FH, it's going to work out and we won't have CC debt. I think he was ready to pass out after we left the photographer and I told him we still have limos, flowers, invites, etc. OMG, what have I gotten into?

I am not going to share the number we are up to because I feel that is private...but I CAN say that FH thought at first 20, 000 was a reasonable number for the entire wedding.
We are paying over 5,000 more than that JUST for the RH hall....enough said lol

Re: What's your wedding Budget w/poll
I just tried to add everything up and I think I'm pretty much in the range that we had set (average 20-30K)....I still have no idea where all this money is coming from but perhaps I should think about planting a money tree.

Re: What's your wedding Budget w/poll
its funny bc i actually estimated right WAAAY before we even booked things, from the beginning i threw out a number and its about where we'll end up with our budget, not sure now bc not everything hasn't been bought
Whats really killing me, just like everyone else is the RH bill...I have 300 guests or maybe more, for a sat night and we added extras, this is why i dont shop or buy things bc i always have to make payments to the rh
