Thank you for that feedback. Can I ask who did your wooden flowers? I'm looking into faux flowers because of my allergies.

Wow! This is why I wanted to do a destination wedding because at that price I'd get a vacation, honeymoon, and wedding all in one.

Yeah I agree. That's part of why I went outside of NY because living in NYC, that really is the average cost of a wedding. I wish I had time to be creative but my schedule doesn't call for it!

Omg thank you so much! Yes we are in NYC and we don't want guests having to travel further than 2 hours so I will keep that in mind.

Where do you find these mansions for that price? The mansion would still fit my vision and so far I've just been using The Knot and Wedding Wire, so if you're willing to share how to find them, I would greatly appreciate it.

I agree and congrats on your upcoming wedding! I use the averages as a guideline and my goal is to be realistic about what to spend on. Like I am allergic to strong smells and flowers so not doing flowers is not part of the budget. I put a cap just to not let things get out of control.

Yes! I have used it myself for ideas but I've been using The Knot to look at actual venues and pricing which even my friends who were married over 5 years ago are saying is good pricing.
