as above

all in but not incl honeymoon

 

well my sisters cost just over 50k..

 

and thats just from the brides side

 

mine was about 2.5k mate

 

my wedding was cheap 5k unlike my divorce which was 500k
don't do it
mind you you could say the wedding was dear 5k for a day and the divorce better value at 500k cos it took 5 fookin years lol

 

8K THAT WHY I DON`T HAVE A ESCORT COSWORTH WOTH EVERY PENNY

 

I have never added at all up properly, sure it would be about 7-8k

Steve.

 

I went to one last weekend and that was way over Ł100k Plus the brides Dad gave them a Ł225k house.


I married the wrong girl

 

We did ours for under Ł5k Matt

Civil ceremony, all under one roof so no going between church and reception. Held in a country club so there were good places for photo's etc.

 

Probably around 2.5k, and that included everything, hire of the castle, food and drink at the castle after ceremony ( was 45 mile away from the reception so had to provide the hungry horace's with something ! ) hire of the hall for meal and dance, hire of the band to play at the dance, included the price of all the dresses which were hand made ( brides dress and 2 bridesmaids and also 4 flower girls ) flowers, favours, all the drink we provided and probably quite a lot more that i have forgotten about !!

Does make quite a difference though when your wife just happens to be an award winning wedding co-ordinator


If she had to provide a wedding similar to ours it would have cost the client somewhere in the region of 30k

 

around 10k held in Banyan Tree Resort Phuket, worth every penny

 

Fuck that......I'm staying single!!!!

 

i get married a week today!!! total cost - not including the honeymoon is Ł11K, bang another 3.5K plus spends for that - i'm now officially skint, i got paid to day and i'm still over a grand overdrawn

 

it's all well if you have the money to splash, but don't get into debt because of a it

 

Ł800, and our daughters birth aside, it was the best day of our life


It took alot of whinging for me to pay that for a bit of paper too

I know at least 5 couples who've spent 20k+ only to divorce in 6 months. Awesome

Unless you have the money, I think it's madness to spend so much tbh

Too many people spendmoney to make it enjoyable for everyone else. Its NOT their day, it's YOURS!!!!

 

How do you lot spend so little?!

My mate's a printer, and for the wedding we're going to this weekend, the invitations are 2k alone!

 

All this money on a wedding.........madness. Do it on the cheap and lump a chunk off the mortgage. Surely that's got to be a better investment ? As long as you've got the bit of paper that says you're married and have a nice backdrop for the pictures what else do you need ?

 

Thats Ridiculous mate!

 

average is 10k i think.

I told the misses we would chip off to vegas and get marriedshe thought it was a cool idea

Lots of people are getting married abroad, for the 10k you could fly you and close family out, everyone else book their years hoiliday at the resort and jopins you

 

your mates ripping you on them invites what are they platinum

 

I would estimate mine around 6-7k (church wedding, cars, meals, reception etc etc), couldn't have been a better day if we spent another 100k.
As long as you have a nice location, food and friends/family.

Excess..............., is it stupidity, ignorance or just to keep one step ahead of the Jones....doesn't impress me i'm afraid.

 

I am off to a wedding in St Lucia next March....thats costing me Ł1k in flights and accomidation only.......god knows how much the wedding will be

 

i married my wife in march this year and we seem to think we spent around the Ł15k mark. worth every penny but would buy a nice escos.

wont say any more as she is sat next to me

regards

mike

 

10K, honeymoon was 3.5K

Married in a hotel, reception at the same place, brilliant day and well worth the expense

 

I think ours was between Ł3000-Ł4000 but my mate did us excellent deal on the reception He was my best man so we held the reception at his hotel and I'm sure he ended up out of pocket

We went to 2 other weddings in the same year as ours and both had lots more money spent on them and both were at posh hotels but everyone kept referring back to ours and how great the food was, the atmosphere and everything It's not all about how much you spend

 

The family are loaded, so it's going to be a hell of a wedding.....

Best of luck with yours too mate if I don't say it before

 

I did about Ł13/14K

 

my uncle who is loaded, got his first son married and spent over 100k he had flown people in from around the world, had the reception party at celtic football club, which meant he had to buy over 1000 people air tickets from all over to scotland..he also gave his son a brand new merc sl500..and a apartment in London..

its amazing how much money can be spent on a couple days..

im going to tell the missus were gettin married over seas just me n her and 2 random witnesss

 

Eh.....

 

I did a nice photoshop job and printed them myself. Probably cost us Ł30 in ink and paper.

At the end of the day they only get stuck on the fridge with a magnet

 

Do i get a prize for the cheapest one ?? about Ł1000 mine , it would of been cheaper if i had my way i would of just fucked off to greta green on done it, but it wasn't fair on my mum to just do that , i really can't see the point in spending thousand's on a wedding , i would sooner have something to show for my money not just a memory of a wedding day

 

i couldn't agree more , even if someone dropped 40k on my doorstep and i was planning on getting married i wouldn't spend it on a wedding , i would by a concour's escort cosworth

 

Weddings to me are not only about making a vow to the girl you love, but also about having all your favourite people in the world get together for a big meal and party and to get some good memorable pictures of you all together having a great time. That sadly doesnt come particularly cheaply if there are a lot of people involed.

 

Stu, you've got such a soft side..i'm almost filling up the way you worded that..

 

About Ł30k including 5 day honeymoon in Lake Garda, amazing photographer and all the piccies/albums, free bar and a brilliant brilliant band

Far too bloody much for my liking

Altho I am looking forward to it...all my mates together under one roof...wont happen again till my funeral i reckon

 

I am a softie me, always have been.

 

Aww bless ya Stu


2k for invitations, i would want the writing in real gold for that

 

Aww im i one of your favourites in the world

 

Im not married and as yet have not plans to but all i can say from the experiences of my brothers wedding, get some fit Bridesmaids makes the night so much more enjoyable only kidding!!!

To be truthful my brothers wedding was by no means the cheapest nor the dearest but it was at a lovely country club, good food and like Stu said its all about being with friends family and closest buddies at one time.

My most memorable moment of my bro's wedding is when we were both smashed at about midnight. Just got another drink from the bar for myself and the doris,and my brother came up to me put his arms round me, hugged me and said -

"Bro, your the best brother i could ever wish for, I love you."

That seriously fucked it we both started crying, but seriously made my day that comment.

So i would say from that day money is not important, its with who you choose to share that special day with....

 

Of course you are pal.
