Almost everything depends on it: The date, the size, the flowers, the budget—even the dress!

I had to re-adjust my photographer budget when I saw that even the “lower priced” people were still coming in around $3k. Some out there are upwards of $6k! Like you, I have no desire to spend lots of money on a wedding. I just want fun with my friends and family.

We went with a restaurant, so venue + caterer combined. Plus that keeps the food costs down (no upsell for a wedding)

I’m with you on this planning stuff. Stressful, and all these things I didn’t think I had to consider. Don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings, either.

Good luck!

It seemed like you everything is pretty much covered. There are really a lot of things to do and expenses to be paid in a wedding. It’s not really that easy but it will all be worth it. We tend to spend a huge amount when it comes to our wedding because it is definitely one of the best moments in our life but i do believe, we really don’t have to spend a big amount of fortune. Anyway, the photographer’s fee is really something. I think it’s really expensive. You can probably find a cheaper one.

I guess one way to save is to get up and coming photographers who want to build a portfolio and give them a chance. have them take some engagement photos of the two of you so you can try them out make the decision afterwards.

DJ’s, venues, caterers – everything!

I know totally know how stressful it is to wedding plan so my big tip is try not to make a bunch of decor and crafts right before the wedding. I never want to see Michael’s again.

The venue itself served as most of the decor, and with it being outside it felt like it was easier to get away with using flowers sparingly (we didn’t even have to use a florist, we did most of it ourselves). I do wish we had been more picky about our photographer. For what we spent, I was disappointed in the results.. and that’s one area I feel like you don’t want to mess up on! All you’ll have after the day of is your memories and your pictures – so really be careful with your photographer decision.

The actual wedding day is nothing more than cosmetics compared to what we built afterwords. We are having too much fun to look at the photos or watch old videos. We are very different people and a very different couple than we were in 1997. Have a fun day!!!
