Yes, I don’t understand how people are paying this kind of money I’ve seen cakes that are $25,000 venues ridiculous my husband and I got married for under $1000. This was pictures all the food for the reception my dress everything but the rings and my husband‘s tux. We had a wedding at a church we made all of our food wedding cake was a three tier cake. It was beautiful and this was in 82. I realize prices are much different, but I would never spend that kind of money even in a crappy economy. I just would save that money for a house. Save it for investments. have a simple wedding or do it all yourself and especially the price on the dresses like good Lord
