Wedding...how much do they cost?

[ryanmercer]

Too damn much when there are guns and ammo to be bought. The end

My wife and I were in the $5000 range all said and done. And I think $1800 of that was the honeymoon to Dominican Republic.

But we were "helped" out quite a bit in the form of early wedding gifts.

We were gifted half of our photography package, my folks and their friends did the catering, her mom had set aside a specific amount to give each of her daughters, one of wife's co-workers does cakes on the side so the cake was our gift from them, etc etc.

We decided VERY early on in the wedding planning that there was absolutely positively no freaking way that we would even THINK about going into any kind of debt for anything wedding-related. And we didn't!

Weddings CAN be done inexpensively. And, in MY opinion, they SHOULD be done inexpensively.

I agree, that's why I'm trying to get an idea I need to save for a wedding...you know, should I marry somebody soon

That's not true at all. Every day she's more beautiful than she was the day before.

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Just say "honey but it's so much more romantic to elope to the courthouse"

Much of that depends on HER...

If you get involved with a spoiled brat of a kid...one whose parents always had a lot of money...then chances are higher that she'll want her super-duper fantabulous princess-like wedding that will cost umpteen thousand dollars, your left testicle, AND half of your liver. But, if that's the case, then perhaps mommy and daddy will pick up the tab...

If you find yourself invovled with someone who was raised up on a farm and relatively poor all her life...then that life-long frugal mind-set will definitely bleed over into future wedding planning. Usually.

In other words, it all depends on the woman.

my wife said that to me.

If you really want to know, take what you make a year and times it by how long you want to be married...j/k

A playboy subscription is cheaper than a wedding.

It's stupid how much that nonsense costs. IMO its a total racket designed to fleece cash out of people.

We got married in Sept. we went on Vacation and on the way home our families and friends met us in Gatlinburg. The wedding, reception and a 22 person cabin for two days (yes we all stayed together) we had less than $5,000 total in it (I am on the high side maybe up to $2000 less but I am not sure of the exact total)

Almost heaven resorts
Calhoun's Reception hall
Jackson Mountain Home Cabins

All of the places were really nice.
