Add all of the above and the total is $1,338. I would include about another $200 in various and sundry items, nail polish, lipstick, plates and cups, etc. So that brings us to $1,538. Add to that what my parents paid for the dress: $1,888, and miscellaneous stuff others got for us (ice for the reception, etc.) and we are still under $2,000! How's that for a good deal?
Obviously, this was not a huge, fancy and traditional ceremony with a sit down meal reception. This wedding was entirely us--outdoors in a beautiful and meaningful setting, very casual, with our very dearest friends and family around us. I think that is what is important--not that you spent a lot or it is fancy, but that it suits your personalities. This wedding truly was the essence of us. Wouldn't change a thing!
