We had 250 guests and the wedding was $27,000.  I'm from central Illinois.  Weddings in central Illinois are typically considered on the affordable side.  Ours was definitely more pricey than the usual central  IL wedding.  That included everything except rings and honeymoon.

I'm from Chicago and my original wedding was going to be for 220 people and cost about $33-35,000. We changed our mind and are going to do it in vegas with about 65 people for $15,000 instead. Wasn't really because of the cost, it just sounded like it would be alot more fun that way!

Answer 9

Mine is going to be between 60-75 guests, and the whole thing is going to cost us around $5000, but that includes the rings, attire, honeymoon-related expenses (My future in-laws have given us a Caribbean cruise as a wedding gift, but we'll still need our own money for activities and we need to purchase passports, etc.) as well as the ceremony and reception itself, so I think we did a great job!  (Seeing as how we'll be serving our guests a full dinner and open bar)

Answer 10

Mine was around $10,000 for 400 guests in Indiana.

Answer 25

Me and my husband just got married on June 28th, in Weatherford, TX.  We spent roughly 2500 but we cut alot of corners and people did some things for us.  We had roughly 100 to 125 guests.

We didn't serve a sit down meal, just cake, punch, ice water, grapes, cheese, chocolate covered strawberries, strawberries, peanuts, and dinner mints.

A lady at the church provided our decorations, she already happened to have the stuff in the colors we wanted.

Someone let us borrow an archway.

We did a church wedding and held the reception there.

We used the greenery that the church had and didn't get any extra flowers.

We used flowers from grocery store for the center pieces.

I made the boutineers myself.

I got fake flowers for mine and my husband's best woman's bouquet, from Michaels for 12.99 each.

A friend of the family made the cakes for us.  (If not go to walmart or grocery store for  cake.  Get a small tier cake and then a sheet cake, use a sheet cake for the grooms or get something like a german choc cake.)

We used grocery store flowers for the corsages, flowers on the bride's cake, and the greenery spray for the cake.  

I splurged on my dress.

Got my daughters dress at TJMaxx...cinderella communion dress for 39.99.

We made our invites on the printer, I got the kits from the craft store, found ours on clearance.

Got the flower girl basket and pillow for the ring bearer half price.

Use 40% off coupons that the craft stores send, joann's fabrics and michaels.

We borrowed linens for the tables from the church, ask your venue they might have them for you to rent or borrow.

We bought some of our decorations, napkins, rose petals from oriental trading.

I got the plates, forks, and cups from Sam's. Along with the mints and peanuts.  Sam's had a huge 5lb bag for around 7 to 8 bucks if I recall on the mints.
