    $5k for 300 people and I'm under so far. We are going simple on a lot of things such as Walmart cupcakes (which are freaking awesome where I'm from). We have a lot of connections and have decorations from events we've done in the past. We are major DIY people.

    (Does not include honeymoon or venue..The venue cost $2,700 was a gift.)

    3-4k for 18 people (most of that budget is food/alcohol because we both love food)!

    $13K for the venue was a gift from my parents and included ceremony, reception, officiant, DJ, catering, tables and linens and bartending

    $5k from fiance and I for photography, cake, rings and honeymoon flights

    Everything else, from attire, wedding dress, hmua, rehearsal dinner, hotels etc. doesn't have a budget because it is graciously coming out of my mom's small inheritance she gained from selling her parents house in CA. Overall, everything should be close to $25K

    We’re shooting for under $4,000 for 175+ people haha. No dance, free venue and free cake helps. Food might push us over though.

    We were at about $2,500 not including rings, attire, HMU, or rehearsal dinner (which my Dad paid for). We had 30 RSVP yes but only about 25 show up.

    Aiming for under $8k with 90-100 guests. Hopefully we can keep it lower, but it'll depend on taxes and tips.

    Ours is $35k for 300ish guests. but trying to do things as money-friendly as possible. i thought my DIY tendencies might save me money during the planning process but im afraid my standards have hurt me on a financial level.

    We live in the DMV area and right now we are looking to invite about 200 people. I'm actively trying to cut my list down weekly...haven't seen that first cousin in years *delete*
    But we are looking at about $50k. That doesn't include the honeymoon, attire, makeup, hair, attendants' gifts, parents' gifts or incidentals. So when all said it done maybe $60k.

    I’m not allowed to say . But we’re having around 150-160 and I believe it will triple and not including my dress and wedding rings. I have to wonder what are we doing and it’s a second marriage for both of us.
