I agree with the other bride, It really depends on what you like and want. this is is what I spent because I had a rather large wedding. Vendors change their prices according to budget and stuff.

I am getting married at the cottage at East wind in wading river. It has an all inclusive package (photographer, flowers, cake, dj and venue) for 10,000. I found that it had made planning super easy.

What is this day after shoot? I don't have video, thought I've been debating adding it on if we can swing that in our budget. I haven't heard of this though. Thanks!
