How much?

[Sniper]

DISCLAIMER: This question in no way means we are getting married or plan to.

But MissSniper and I were discussing the cost of a wedding. She mentioned some extraordinary amount that made my eyes water and my testicals shrink into the safety regions of my stomach. For those that have been married and those planning to and those who may one day meet a blind person, what would be your thought to the average cost of a wedding? Also, what would you include in that cost, if you want to, you can add why.

Poll included.

[kro]

My wife and I did ours on the cheap back in 1990, and it cost $2350.00 all up.
Don't spend big coin on a wedding, the groom gets swept aside anyway, and the hens take it over, and if you split, you'll regret wasting all that money on the day, trust me.

We were glad we did a budget wedding, the money we saved not doing the big budget wedding really helped us get established. 16 years later, we are still going strong.

[Beemer]

It depends greatly on what sort of wedding you want and how many guests you are having. Some things cost the same no matter what - like a marriage celebrant (if not being married by a minister) and a photographer, but you can economise on some things. When we got married last year I naively assumed that $5000 would more than cover everything! NOT!!! We had about 60 guests, got married by a celebrant in the grounds of the reception venue where we had a buffet meal. We could BYO to the venue which saved a lot of money (we picked up our wine for $6.99 a bottle in the supermarket), but it still cost us about $10,000 and we weren't extravagant. We hired outfits for the groom, best man and bridesmaid, a friend did the flowers for $100 (you may think that is expensive until you start asking around at florists!), hair and makeup were done locally, I made the invitations and the cake (but had it iced professionally). You can do everything on a budget, but if you do, set the budget BEFORE shopping around. I knew the $5000 was being optimistic after booking the photographer ($2000) and the catering (about the same). It's amazing how quickly things add up, like shoes, a DJ or band, marriage licence, wedding rings, flowers, venue hire, food, alcohol, etc.

If we did it again, I wouldn't change the catering or the venue, but there are things I would economise on. If you want to get an idea of what things really cost (the sky can be the limit - I've heard of weddings costing more than $50,000 in Auckland - venue hire in the thousands of dollars, per head prices of $150 for food, etc!), check out this site - www.nzweddingplanner.co.nz - there is a search function and you can find out what other people are spending.

I don't regret the money though, as we had a fantastic day and built up some great memories, but you don't have to spend a lot of money to get those things.

[Kendog]

If we could do it again, I'd take off to Vegas and get hitched, come home and tell everyone about what a cool holiday we had, much cheaper!

[Motu]

$0.00 - took a long lunch and put in an extra half hour at the end of the day.

[Jantar]

Allow $35 - $55 per guest for food and drink. $1500 for clothes and flowers, $2000 - $3000 for photos, $$$$$$$$$$ just keep adding up.

Or you can what Mrs J and I did. We eloped and got married on the beach at Noosa. Only 3 guests (relations who already lived in Queensland) and the marriage celebrant. We spent the early afternoon before the wedding watching an All-Blacks Vs Wallabies match then rushed trhough to Noosa for a twilight wedding on the beach. Total cost, including airfares and accomadation; $5000.

[Highlander]

When I worked in Wairoa one lady in the office there took out second mortgage to pay for her daughters wedding (it was HUGE).

Had a friend invite people to their place fora BBQ (byo) and had a celebrant there to do the honnours.

Have been to others wehre you were asked to bring a plate.

Really the cost goes as high as you want, but keep an eye on the cost or it will get away on you.

[MissSniper]

My step brother got married recently and i dont know the cost but i can only imagine on what it would be.

Most weddings you need to account for wedding dressess/tuxcedoes, flowers, photographer, makeup/hair, hire of venue, celebrant, food, alcohol, accommodation, rings(just the wedding bands), honeymoon, now with the added pertol prices money for travel to venue, invitations, hen/stag do's, presents, music/Dj hire, car/bike arrival to venue.

Then there's the optional extras like photo albums, a scroll to put the piece of paper into, enlarging copies of photos etc etc etc

i recon you better start saving now.:doh:

Is there a bit of a contradiction here somewhere? Congratulations you two. :killingme :spudflip: :killingme

[Sniper]

I have a mate who is getting maried soon and he reckons we can do the wedding for under $500.

1. I could get ordained over the internet ($250)
2. We could drive to A beach ($30)
3. We could have the reception at my house and everyone brings their own food ect (Free)
4. Wedding bands can be radiator ring clips ($2 a peice)
5. For the honeymoon he can stay in the spare room. (Power)

Smartarse, no we are not getting married, but a close friend has, hence the speculation

[Finn]

Sniper mate, no chick talks about a wedding for the sake of it. She was trying you on and also indicated what type of wedding she expects from you. My advice...

RUN FOR THE HILLS!!!

[Colapop]

We got married in the rose garden at Aotea Lagoon (a park area). We had family and close friends. The aftermatch function was held in our back yard and we got to bed at about 3am after dropping friends off! We spent about a grand all up. My sister and her fella got married at Gesthomne (sp??) gardens above brighton beach in CHch. Gold wedding dress and Rolls Royce wedding cars (3 of them) $27,000 all up. The best bit about both gigs was seeing our families and spending some time together for a good occasion (instead of a funeral).

Do whatever you guys want to do. The idea is that you do it once - f*ck all this shit about "what if you break up... etc" If you're wooried about that then you haven't chosen right in the first instance. It's really all about you two not everyone else.

Yep. One life One Wife.

[jonbuoy]

I don't see the point in spending loads of money, everyone else gets free food/piss but who actually enjoys going to a wedding? I dread being invited to one. Only people that win are the wedding services people. I'd rather spend it on a great honeymoon instead.

That's a bit morbid isn't it ?

I'm pretty sure everyone who came to our wedding had a ball. It looks like it from the photos.

Small private church, photos through a friend, cake through a work contact, hirage of a venue, catered meal for 65, drinks for about 90. 1967 Impala for wedding car, hirage of wine glasses, home made invites, DJ, flowers...........probably forgot a few little things..all for about $10k.

Definitely pool any resources you may have though - we must have saved at least a grand.

It doesn't work that way dude, my Mum and Dad were married for 35 years, split up, and two years later got back togther, even the "solidest" of relationships suffer sometimes. What I am saying is you spend mega bucks on one day in your life, and then the meaning of that day is bunkered by a break up, then the money seems like a waste. We have so many friends in this boat its not funny, and they all regret spending big coin on marriages (one of them in excess of 50K) its a damn shame if you ask me.

We didn't spend what we did because we had this fact in mind, we spent it because it seemed a sensible amount for one day.

[Deano]

I fully agree about not going overboard with the costs -I didn't want to spend more than $7k, but to try and get close family and friends together for a good time isn't cheap. And a good time it was. (Maybe I'm biased having just done it)

Ours was a very precious day to me, and I hope too the family and friends who came and helped celebrate with us. You can't ride every day.:no:

Isn't that a bit like saying why spend a lot of money on a bike cause you may crash it ? Live for the moment (but don't make yourself broke over it)

You should only spend what is comfortable for you - at the end of the day it's about celebrating with friends and family, not having gold plated cutlery or whatever.

Well said Deano, I often come acorss as the prophet of doom, it's just my bad way with words.

[Skunk]

We had a the wedding and reception at the same venue ($35-40 a head). Put on Trap shooting, driving rang, slingshot target shooting and some wine (all other drinks were buy your own at the bar) and a spit roast.

Best part of the wedding was having friends and family around.

And photos to remind us where $20,000+ went... :killingme

[kevie]

hahahah our wedding was like that .... I went home from work for lunch ... on way home decided Lois and I should get married, picked her up from home, took her to Marton Courthouse and got married.
Dont know who the witnesses were ... just grabbed anyone available.

Then dropped wife off at home and went bak to work ..... Dam romantic type arent I !?!?!

BUT ... that was wayyyyyyy bak in 1975 and we still together........ but then, I was 18 and she was 16 when we met, moved in together when she was 18 and married when she was 19 so I often joke she stays because I was her first and only boyfriend so shes got no-one to compare me to :laugh:

Just recently payed for daughters wedding, that was just under $5000.

[froggyfrenchman]

Miss Gn1nitestnd and I are planning on spending sweet fuck all. What point is there in going all out. How is a $5000 dress any better than a $200 one? I refuse to wear a suit (its just not me) and the whole thing is gonna happen at my folks house.

[Cookie]

We did our wedding in 1990 for $1600 bucks. Everyone seemed to enjoy it.

I sourced my gold ring from an "antique" store for $150.

I was a student and didn't have squat so that was all we could do.

I have just polished my ring up because I figure I can put it on tardeme and spend the money I get on some more tattoo work.

I am with Finn here. Get out of it while you still can. It's not too late. :laugh:

[Albino]

Be very frugal. If you spend up large all that happens is that your mates have a great time and you end up fucked.

:rootingsmilies:

[vtec]

Haha, sounds like there's a lot of smart dudes on here who know that an expensive wedding is just an imagined necessity that many women think proves your commitment.

In my opinion spending heaps on a wedding is as farcical as abstract art, truffles and government policy.

In the extreme off chance that I was to get married. I would do it as cheap as possible while still making it enjoyable. Would just make it a big family affair with the BBQ like the type of thing we have on Christmas day, except this time it would be with two family's worth of people, and a celebrant.

Don't get roped in to hiring fancy cars, fancy clothes, fancy cakes, fancy venues. This is all just trickery and deception that wedding planners say that you need to show your love (or some bullshit), so they can rake in thousands. In my opinion they are worse than lawyers... or even worse than real estate agents.

[vtec]

Another point to watch out for. Don't spend sweet fuck all on Diamonds. They are one of the most common precious stones out there, but they are priced really high, cause the jews in Antwerp have their shit sorted and control the supply of diamonds very carefully. Again with really manipulative marketing. And for some reason chicks are attracted to things that are not only shiny, but are also expensive while being in effect completely useless. It's like a big price tag gets them all randy or something. Yeah diamonds are nice, but 10 Bridgestone Battlax BT090's are nicer.

[Sniper]

and you end up fucked.

No complaints from this side.:killingme

[Cajun]

Okay me and my wife got married about 2 1/2 years ago, cost us around $12k(i think) and that was including honeymoon.

Friends of ours just got married for ($1500) just done at there place, bbq, and sorta for dinner.

-----------
Next time - i be going to vegas or simlar to doing it, cause all in all the wedding you are paying to feed other people, and by all in all you don't get a chance to talk to most of people you invite, due to being busy with other things.

It really depends on how close you are to you family, or she to hers. If got a small family might not be to expensive. If big family, and 'parents' want to invite this friend "oh she looked after you when you were a kid" bullshit.

[Paul in NZ]

We self catered our wedding (with help from rellies), Vickis mother made the dress, family supplied the cars etc and it cost bugger all really.

I'm a big fan of sensible weddings. If you want to bring family together involve them in the wedding. Help with the food, photos entertainment etc. Make it byo and forget the cheesy gifts etc. The whole megga princess wedding for 'ordinary' folks is a recent invention and a sad one IMHO!

You can use our garden if you want etc etc.. Easy!

Granted not every marriage will last forever but if more people took a little more time in deciding and were a lot more compromising then there'd be a lot more marriages last a lot longer. We compromise all the time.. she tells me what to do and I do it if I know whats good for me!!:bash:

[jaybee180]

Man what a heap of cynics you all are.

Aitch and I are in the process of planning our wedding as we speak. Not a cheap exercise I grant you, but it's gunna be a cracker! We don't think we are going overboard with the three prime requirements being "good food, good wine, and a good photographer". We are both in our 40's, own our own home, don't have any kids together............so what are we gunna do with the money! No point being the richest person in the graveyard!!!

Doing the whole thing in one place. But we have still budgeted for fifteen grand. Recently went to a wedding that would have had to be the all time worst. Felt really sorry for the couple. The food was just horrible, no wine for the tables and no opportunity to buy any, the DJ was stuck in last century, and I'm sorry, but disco balls just do not yank my chain! Whilst it was great to see the couple and share their day with them, everyone had gone by 9pm! Do what you can afford - but do it well!!!

[Highlander]

I refuse to wear a suit (its just not me)


I wore jeans to our wedding much to Mother In Law's disgust.

[kickingzebra]

Our wedding, a year and a half ago probably cost about 10 grand... Father in law paid the vast majority of that.

I suggested to my wife eloping, but she wasn't keen, it all depends on the type of family you have I suppose.

To be honest, though our wedding was very nice, on the day, there are soo many people etc, it is a bit bewildering to try and do everyone justice, and all of the nice touchs go right out the door.

One thing we did was to have our photos before the ceremony, it saved a lot of bother.
We had people travel from like as far as germany, so leaving on a 6 am flight to Aussie the next day was not a bright move... no jiggy jiggy on wedding night, when we got to the hotel near the airport, my wife had slept all the way, I woke her, she took long enough to go to the room, and get into bed before falling asleep again.

What an exhausting day... The boys were out mucking around lighting fires in stupid places etc till 4:30 am, and wifey wanted a special private ceremoney to exchange rings at 6, then 630 into makeup etc...

In hindsight, a quiet ceremony by yourself (kept hush hush) and honeymoon, then have the wedding party when you come back, then you can pay your friends full attention, that would be the way I would do it now.

Also, a low key thing with friends will cost WAY less than a full wedding. 3 to 4 grand should hire a nice venue, with everthing laid on, then you can entertain in style, but no wedding paraphenalia means less inflated costs.

my 2cents, oh wait, its a wedding, $20.00

[Biff]

Waikuki beach - free
Celebrant - $120
Spit Roast Company (40 people) - $1500 ish
Piss - $500

Dropping the Biffbird while doing 10kmph while taking a tight right into a hotel car park in front of a bus load of Asian tourists, in Queenstown, with the new Mrs on board, on your honeymoon - Priceless. :oi-grr:

[soundbeltfarm]

got married in 2000 cost about 7-8k.
married in gardens cost 50 bucks was primo there to we took a few kegs and chips and all that finger food.
for after we were married we went had photos they cost 400 but now the same photographer costs over 1500 ( our wedding was the second she'd done but are good photos.)
I wanted a BBQ but inlaws wanted to pay for a proper feed so that was all good. about 32 dollars a head.
hired the local hall 150 dollars hired the local lions as piss pourers cost us 50 dollars.
DJ was a mate so cost me petrol for him to get out to the hall.
had 3 wedding cars and again all friends so we just got them a car care set each and fuel.
all classic chevs.
hired suits and trace got her and her bridesmaids dresses made by a family friend for sweet F.A
and we just had kegs and bubbly for the tables and spirits for top table and family tables and a bit behind the bar for the others . and all the usual non alcholic stuff too.
had still wine that was made by grandad and that Fucd anyone that dared drink the potent shit.
we had 150 people at wedding and another 40 to the after wedding.
best part was the next day at my olds .
during the week before me and dad went out hunting and got a nice sized deer and a young sow. (im not for killing sows but for this day we did)
my uncle went out and got some shellfish and we had some T-bones from a little red vealer we reared for the day.
was a wicked day. borrowed a spit for the pig, the mum and her sisters made venison rissoles and kebabs, BBQ the scallops and Tbones, and dad made the paua fritters and we cleaned up all the piss from the night before and had to go to the pub for a 2 more.
so was good for all to catch up (we have big families 11 kids on mums side and 11 on dads too)
not many on trace's side.
was the last time all trace's uni mates caught up at the same time.
and a few of my mates from scotland came over for it also so that was way cool i thought.
flowers were done from the local CWI and then they just went to a local church somewhere for the church services so that made them pretty cheap at 200 dollars.
so i reckon it was well worth it .
and im still happily married.
so its all good

[froggyfrenchman]

I wore jeans to our wedding much to Mother In Law's disgust.

Yeah, my mother out law dosnt seem too happy at the idea. The father outlaw seems to think that wearing my leathers would be the best bet. The missis dosnt seem to care either way, wants a dress though, dosnt want to wear her leathers:oi-grr:

[MSTRS]

Spend what you can afford. A little or a lot makes no difference to the meaning of the affair. Shop around, use your contacts and don't be pressured into 'this or that' by anyone - whose wedding is it, after all?
Yungatart and I got married in 1997. We had 50-odd guests, a piper and a full haggis party, a photographer and a fully catered function with a band at a winery. Total cost was under $3000.
Admittedly we achieved this borrowing some things, the wedding dress was the seamstress's (a friend) gift, the photograher was a start-out who did it for the practice and the cost of the film, the floral arrangements were another friend's gift....you get the picture

[Aitch]

There are a lot of people of here with no romance in their souls.
First up, a wedding costs what it costs. No two weddings are the same (unless you go for one of those Rev Moon jobbies), just like no two funerals are the same, or no two first birthday parties are the same. Everyone has their own tastes.
Second, the "hens" only take over when the groom lets them, or when the couple are a pair of starry eyed 20 somethings who let their mummies and daddies pay for the wedding, and so have no real say in who what where when or how. Grown ups plan their weddings together, and the groom has plenty of say in everything from the venue to the menu.( But probably not the dress, but that's a relief for me anyway!)
And bloody hell it's hard work finding the right venue!!!!!!!!!

[Sniper]

Cheers Aitch, thats some wise words.

[onearmedbandit]

Got married last year Sniper, cost just less then $20,000. Limited our guests (mostly my friends and family as most of her side were in Japan, yes we had two weddings, but the one in Japan we made a profit from, see people pay you to come to your wedding!!!!!) to about 85. Did we count the dollars, nah not really. We had the best day of our lives, many people (suprisingly) said the same, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Oh yeah, I'll mention it again. People pay you to come to your wedding in Japan. Cost us about $11,000 to do in Japan, and we still made a profit.

[Deano]

Not as much as a divorce.




Quite right! Back in '77 when we got married, the Father-in-Law gave us $500 and said,"Do whatever you want". We hired a hall and sent invites sayin' "Everyone can come, bring a plate". Bought most of the booze, probably all up about a grand or so. HAte to tally up what a divorce would cost me now!
Daughter gets married in July. Taking place in Aus 'cause Rudy's family are there and as his parents are chefs they offered to cater. Still, by the time we factor in travel and accomodation it's costing us about $5k+ and Rudy's, (the Groom), paying for a lot, he's spent about $5k but they're having a few special treats. Not sure what the In-laws are spending but it won't be a little amount. My sister and her husband probably spent about $10k on my neice's wedding recently. Adds up real quick!

[SpeedyGirl]

Well I recon that you should let Miss Sniper spend whatever she wants...otherwise she may break your other arm :nya: :moon:

I would say the cost of a wedding would be very close to $20,000.

Once again, Congratulations to both of you. :rockon:

[riffer]

MSTRS is right. You spend what you can afford.

Virginia and I had a traditional celtic handfasting. The groom and his party were in full kilt (yes I went Commando), and the bride and maidens were in mediaeval dresses. All made by family.

As her parents had a magnificent 20-acre garden in Akatarawa Valley, it was the perfect setting. The priestess was her oldest friend, and the celebrant my great-aunt. I borrowed a claymore of my Father-in-Law, who also piped Gini in.

The food was barbecue and salad, brought by family and friends, and we sprung for the kegs and wine.

A fantastic day, beautiful weather, 100 guests, and each set of parents helped heaps. Friends and family all participated and everyone felt part of the day and the wedding. No arguments, no stress, just a great day.

As we had so much help from family and friends, we pretty much just had to pay for the booze, food, and materials for the clothing. All up, we spent about $3000.

Don't get suckered into doing anything you don't want. This is the time to set the tone for the rest of your married life, and really really really concentrate on the communication.

Just remember Stu, that YOU are just as big a part of this as your wife to be. Too many guys just sit back and let the Mother-in-Law and wife to be take over and end up thinking that the day didn't really have anything to do with them. Marriage is a partnership, and this day is about the TWO of you.

Best of luck with your planning. As for the new bike, that will come. Don't push the point too hard. You'll end up with something great if you learn some give and take... just like marriage really. There will be fights and arguments about the wedding plans - this is normal. Roll with the punches.

[MSTRS]

Wise words and true, Riffer. Main thing is to have fun and DO IT YOUR WAY.

[Smokin]

cant say i remember exactly but i think we spent about $12g and the catering was a gift from a mate :first:
If i can offer some advice i would spend a little more on your selves and save a bit on your guests, After all it's really only a party to them, If they have a feed with plenty of booze they are happy, spend the extra coin on photo's, Brides dress, suit hire and the bits and pieces that are going to make the pair of you happy on the day and give you lasting memorys.

[Sniper]

I know, I lied, does that make me a bad person?

[chic 'n' charge]

I'm so glad that you're getting the chance to talk about weddings - good on you both. Talk lots about what you can afford before and after the big day and you'll be sweet.

Congrats :yes:
