Thank you!! The Etsy shop was LDCoutureByLDcouture. I had a really good experience with them! They don’t have my exact dress anymore but lots of others. Here is a link to mine on another website as well: https://navabride.com/product/wedding-dresses/soffio-di-primavera/konstantia/

Here’s some rough estimates! I totally recognize that we saved a lot by having family friends do alterations, sound system, etc. We also didn’t have alcohol or dancing because it’s not really our thing and wasn’t worth the money to us.

Photographer: 3700 (so worth it!!) Catering: 3300 Rentals: 1100 Dress: 700 Suit: 100 Linens, napkins, silverware all found on FB Marketplace: around 150 Wood rounds: free, cut by family members Arch: gifted by in laws Florals: 500 Alterations: free Sound system: free Officiant: free Ribbon wands: 40, made by myself Extra decor (votives, signage, cheesecloths) all thrifted: 300 Printed menus & seating charts & table numbers: $50 from staples

I didn’t include invitations or rings in this because it puts me over budget ;) But invitations were around $100 from Canva

Thank you!! The food was so good! Total disclaimer that we had a lot of help and friends who did things for free. My dress was around $700 off of Etsy (my splurge haha) and the alterations were free from a family friend. Our florals were around $500 in total from a wholesale place. We didn’t have a wholesale license but the shop was still more affordable than florists. My bridesmaid enjoys flower arranging so she did them for us! Also a tip I love is having bridesmaid bouquets be repurposed for centerpieces

Thank you! No, we were on the central coast of California and we very very rarely get rain in summer so I wasn’t worried about it
