Weddings: How Much & Who Pays?
By Anne Mihelakos Wedding Budget Planning Who Pays? When planning a wedding, one soon realises that no matter how you look at it, it could cost you a tidy sum. We have been collecting data from our brides over the past 6 years and it never ceases to amaze us how much can be spent on a wedding. Some couples choose to have casual intimate affairs and have spent as little as $1,000.00, whilst others opt for something a little more grand and opulent and have spent as much as $80,000.00. However, no matter what your budget, we all would like to know who pays for what. We have put together a list, by category, of the key items involved in organising a wedding. Alongside we indicate traditionally who has been responsible for these items (in bold), bearing in mind that not everyone sticks to tradition.
