So this is just kinda a random post. But I called my venue yesterday and asked about possibly adding additional hours...they told me sure that will be $1,000 an hour! Soooo not sure we will be doing that. B But I need to go into this business, they are making a killing lol

    I think for most people it's between the venue, food/liquor and photographer. Like alot of people my venue includes the food, drinks, DOC, chairs, lines the whole bang...but goodness it's alot!

    The reception. It is in a price range I never thought I'd ever have, but my parents are amazing and want to do it. I am very blessed.

    Totally food and drink. Those are super worth the money though!

    So far photography but I haven't even looked into catering yet. I'm sure that will blow past the photographer, who is quite affordable.

    Our venue is only $1,000 and includes tables and chairs.

    @matt $1,000 isn't bad, it could be worse. I guess I was just surprised because I didn't know what to expect the cost to be.

    Our most expensive vendor is catering, followed by photography, venue, and videography in that order.

    The food will definitely be our biggest expense w/ the venue coming in 2nd. The caterer includes linens and our venue includes tables & chairs so we don't have many rentals

    Yes, Kiara. Ask your vendors how many of us are driving Porches because we make such a killing.

    That is about a standard rate for an extra hour. Especially if they are providing staff that is now on overtime.

    Definitely caterer/food (includes cake, tables, chairs, linens, plates, etc.) followed in order by the band, venue, alcohol, photographer, and my dress.

    Venue food and drinks are rolled into one so that is definitely the most expensive

    Definitely as with most PPs - the venue which includes food, ceremony, reception, alcohol and cake - then the package of photography, videography, DOC, and DJ.
