For the convenience of those actively involved (me, Stu, Em, etc.). And because I get the feeling I may just end up swamping The Girlie Thread otherwise...
I'll just copy in the salient bits and pieces from what has already been mentioned into this post:
ESTIMATED BUDGET
NOTE that the vast majority of everything on this list (that is, bar only 3 or 4 things) is an estimate based at least partially on what some website estimates for them. Several things are estimated 'generously', with a view of it being better to overestimate costs than underestimate them.
We actually expect most of these things to cost different amounts, which is fine provided they're not ALL in the upwards direction.
Paid for by Yasha
Venue - £3,000 approx.
Bride outfit (dress/cloak/circlet/shoes) - £1,500 est.
Bride hair and make-up - £100 est.
Paid for by Yasha's parents
Food - £2,500 approx. (at £25 a head for roughly 100 people)
Drink/tab - £600 approx. (or whatever they wish to pay)
Paid for by Stu (I'll be having words with you about this at the weekend, young man. - TS)
Flowers/bouquet/buttonholes
Everything else
Groom suit - £350 approx.
Groom frock coat - £300 est.
Invitations - £100 est. (so no, not a big fancy professional job)
Civil fees - £200 est.
Photographer - FREE (Yasha's brother, plus anyone else with a camera to hand)
Wedding rings - £350 est.
Car - BORROWED (from...someone...with a nice car. Otherwise we'll have to rent one)
Wedding cake - £200 est.
Music/karaoke - £700 approx. (quote from guy Yasha knows)
Bride's "going away outfit" (aka dress for Yash) - £150 approx.
Hotel? - £100 approx. (depends what we want to do the night afterwards)
Insurance - £50 approx
Honeymoon - £2500 approx. (although really I'm expecting this to be closer to £2,000)
Laaa.
THE HONEYMOON
...Will be secret because Yash enjoys things more that way.
CARS
Stu suggests...the Rolls Royce Silver Wraith.
Although I point out that £425 seems a bit steep for what it'll be used for, and as such I'd probably prefer to find a less ridiculously-classy car and save some cash. >_>
