| Do you have any regrets about the cost of it? What would you have spent less on? |
| $5k all in, ~15 years ago. We bought rings, eloped and spent a week on vacation for that price. No regrets whatsoever. |
| $25K, loved it, about 100 guests, wouldn’t change a thing |
| $10K of which $1000 was my dress. Nice lunch at La Ferme after a noon church wedding. 85 people. Perfect for us. |
| $45k 8 years ago, 150 people, in DC. My parents paid for it. No regrets, it was an amazing and lovely day. |
| No idea, my dad paid for it all. |
| $10K, 100 guests, ten years ago. I wouldn't change a thing-- the things that mattered to me were perfect, and I don't regret not spending more money on coordinating chair covers or a pricier dress or whatever. We ate and danced and had a fantastic time. |
| $100k or maybe a little more. We had 160ish people. 15 years ago. My parents paid for it but they have no regrets as it was a really fun wedding and weekend overall. Money was not an issue for them; otherwise we’d never have spent that. |
| Between $20-25k 17 years ago. Had roughly 100 guests because of a large family. My parents helped with about 10k which was incredibly generous of them. |
| 1k total. Lunch, justice of the peace, dress from Talbots I still have, made my cake. |
I could've written this exact thing, PP. In all honesty I have no idea what the total was all said and done. My husband and I sent ~$25K of our own money on wedding stuff and honeymoon, but my parents paid for most of the wedding (at a downtown DC hotel) and easily spent more than $100K. If I had to do it again I maybe wouldn't spend that much on the day, but my parents wanted to have a big party and they ultimately decided on the venue. |

Maybe $6000 back in 2009. We had a small ceremony at a VFW-type hall, catered by them, with open bar, for 30 people.
If I had to do it over again, I would have just eloped. |

27k 15 years ago. 100 guests. Full open bar, dancing.
No regrets! I loved everything about it. We made that much in wedding gifts. |
+1 same price but 200 guests. No regrets, it was the best day. |
| About $6000. 17 years ago. No regrets but if I had to do it again I would have spent less. |
