Wanting Your Thoughts on this.....

good luck with this bad14u! Let me tell you, weddings make everyone crazy so watch out. Everyone fights for control over things and people just aren't their normal selves.

BTW, my sister just got married last year - they had about 160 guests and served prime rib and the food cost at the end of the night was almost $15,000. This was also at a country club.

If I were you, get married on a Friday, this also cuts people from attending, because they have to take off work & kids out of school. And keep it to immediate family members only and if either of your parents want to invite more people, then they have to pay for their extra guests dinners... then there's no hard feelings. Explain to them that you want to keep costs down and this is how you're gonna do it. Good luck!

Thanks DG!

I hope things work out for you bad1. I know that a lot of women reach a certain age and they suddenly become anxious to just have a wedding....but they forget that there is so much more after the ceremony, reception, etc. Keep talking with your girl - communication is key and will ensure you both are on the same page. Best of luck!
