Venue, all inclusive or bare bones?

We've narrowed it down to 2 venues we love, both stunning, but varying in price by $800. One has staff that does the setup and teardown, a day of coordinator and security. The other we would have to do it all ourselves. One comes with all the tables, chairs and linens we'd need, the other has just the inside tables and chairs and we would have to rent linens and chairs for the ceremony. I want the least amount of stress the day of, so i am definitely leaning towards the one with everything. My FMIL and Mom don't seem to mind doing all the labor but I know they're going to be exhausted by the time it's time to tear down. Anyone do all the setup yourself? Any regrets?

Definitely all inclusive, especially if it's only $800 more. You could very easily end up spending more than that $800 by renting everything you need, and then adding the stress and labor on top of that? Not worth it, in my opinion. Not to mention the fact that having a day of coordinator will be priceless. That was the #1 thing that I absolutely had to have after doing the setup for my sister's wedding and it being incredibly rushed and stressful.
