Mine cost me just over 25k in Ocotber l had a marquee at the George in Stamford, full sit down meal for 80 a band and disco, open bar phtographer, no wedding cars because l live just up the road and a 5 night honeymoon in Dubai with first class flights, not bad l thought, that also included though a meal the night before for 8 of us and some drinks here and there not on the night.

I thought my wedding was pretty good, not much l would have done different, here folks gave me 5k in the end as a token gesture as l am not mr popular with them

Getting married myself and it costs and absolute fortune! If you want to keep the cost down don't let her pick anything!! I'm a lazy bastard and just sign the cheques, so it's probably going to make me bankrupt!! All the little things seem to cost a fortune, like table favours?!? Ł25 each, that Ł1k done easy! Also as were getting married in Dubai and drinks are quite expensive the free bar is going to finish my bank account off for good I imagine

You can get some really good deals at the moment, another one to have her look at is where were getting married at the one and only royal mirage.
