It seems there are people on here that feel the need to ask what everyone is spending on their weddings and then insult them over it. I mean, if you’re asking an actual question about how much something would cost to get a gauge of what you’re up against, fine. But, why do I feel like some people ask just to make themselves angry or prove a point that we’re a bunch of idiots?
My budget is $10,000 for the entire wedding. I’m spending more on entertainment because I want this to be a great night out for everyone, and I’m doing a ton of stuff myself to save where I can. But, I’m not about to be angry because someone else is spending $150,000. Hey, whatever floats your boat! I also don’t care if you want McDonald’s catering your reception.
There are people here planning their weddings from all over the world. The cost is obviously going to be greater in certain areas & it seems like some people don’t get it. Why all the hostility? Wedding or not, planning an event is expensive.
I am by no means throwing money around for nothing. 10k is too much? For the ceremony, the Officiant, the florist, the food, the alcohol, dress, bridesmaids dresses, jewelry, shoes, the tuxes, the cake, the DJ, the favors, the photographer and the other 1000 details . . .
Oh, and the invitations, the programs, the menu cards, wedding rings . . .
I don’t have parents who are paying for the wedding. My fiance & I are paying for everything ourselves in cash and are not getting into credit card debt.
