My Ring!( he bought the set which can be cheaper than buying them seperate)
First things first... a location....
-this can be one of the most expensive parts of the wedding especially if you want a indoor wedding.
most facilities want you to use their caterer which makes the budget soar through the roof....
if you can avoid this you should....- a great place to look into is shelter houses around your city there are many that are fully enclosed and have air and heat as well as a small kitchen. most provide tables and chairs and they can accommodate a variety of wedding sizes.
example: i live near Columbus Ohio and the price per hour for a wedding shelter is $65 so if your have a 4 hr reception with a 1 hr set up and tear down the venue is only 325....crazy yes..although you have to supply food and music equipment but for that price you can afford to hire them.
- We have decided to have our at a park called Heritage Park the cost for their barn is 800/5.5 hours which includes set up and tear down of tables and chairs. a little more expensive than the shelter houses but still a great price and a great setting to have our rustic inspired wedding.(http://www.westerville.org/index.aspx?page=134)
- Maybe your a bride that's like "i want a backyard wedding"... that seems cheap right??? well not always...depending on the amount of people you having it can get very expensive... tables start at $6 each and chairs $1 but the tent is the crazy part a tent that will seat 100 people can be upwards of $500 and i may be a little shy on the number.
- if you have the money to spend on a fancy wedding then do, I'm happy that you can but as for me i want mine to be as inexpensive as possible cause i don't want to have a debt of up to or over10k just for one day... that make me nervous.. My wedding will be worth more than i pay for it because i know that i didn't pay that much for it!
