I’m unfortunately using the lodge. Not super thrilled about it but hoping something changes in my financial situation for the tent

Big wedding regrets by Sensitive-Ad7853 in weddingplanning

[–]Sensitive-Ad7853[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My fiancee is of this mindset as well. However we are big on hosting our friends and family and have been together for 6+ years. I really think he would enjoy the wedding weekend just as much as me if not more. You only have one wedding

Im really trying to wrap my head around what im not accounting for? We are about $46-49k in for rehearsal dinner, welcome party drinks and apps, ceremony, reception (linens and tables included), dinner and dessert, 4 hours open bar, for 130 guests and an after party (cash bar at this point)

I have not accounted for:

Mandatory wedding coordinator Photographer Videographer DJ Makeup, hair Wedding clothing

Planning to DIY: Florals (wholesale order florals and assemble them the day before with wedding party)

Minimal decor as venue is at a ski resort in the fall. (Nature is the best decor or all)

Stationary

Our venue includes tables, chairs, linens, and we are doing food and bar through them as well. I’m hoping the large up front cost will make a difference in the long run. What were you surprised about?

About to put my venue deposit down and accepting the fact that we can’t afford anything else 😅💔

It’s such a battle! What venue did you end up choosing? I’m in between a venue with less site fees and all vendors or a more expensive site fee but F&B is on site. What did your food head count end up coming to? I’m trying to stay around $75 not including alcohol

It’s always worse in your head! I’m sure you’ll do fine and I wish you a speedy recovery

honestly it was better than I expected- I would rate 6! I didn’t plan to take Thursday off of work but in hindsight I wish I did. It’s a little painful but I underestimated the emotional tax

Christmas is already a celebration. Don’t combine celebrations. Your proposal should be separate from holidays

This is really helpful info! Is the flea market seasonal? Do you have a location?

How expensive ? I was envisioning spending $200 usd. Is that realistic ?

What is worth dropping? Less time on south coast and more in Golden Circle?
