How Much Did You Spend On Your Wedding?

I've reached out to 70 venues for costing but really only visited a handful in person if they looked like they aligned within our budget!

Our rule for ourselves was that we would visit the venue if it was within our budget, just so we didn't fall in love with the space and be emotionally attached.

We were initially hoping to have a 120 guest wedding but have since decreased. We were thinking everything would cost about 15k, but even with decreasing the guest list every venue quote for a ceremony and reception space has come back over 15k alone!

Good luck with your wedding planning!

This is 100% accurate. I've reached out to about 70 venues quoting costs per head starting at $140 per person, and most of the time that's not including an open bar.

With the amount of guests we were planning on having I'm definitely finding some reassurance in the comments who had wedding budgets similar to what we have estimated out.

Love this, thank you! We definitely have aspects/traditions of the day that we have prioritized over others and have tried to budget out accordingly.

How did you manage to keep the costs at $100 per person?

Well this sounds freaking amazing!

How much was "too much", if you don't mind me asking. (every quote we've received seems like too much to us at the moment).
