Author: Like how much you should spend on each part? Total budget (not including dress/tux) is around ,000 and we will have around 75-100 people. We are looking at a venue that is ,500 and includes the food, DJ, flowers, bar service (but no alcohol, we supply our own), and cake. Can we get the other things we need and still be around k (photographer, alcohol, favors…what else am I missing?) or do we need to choose a cheaper venue? It is a castle and really unique, so there really isnt an alternate venue that would be similar, but I would consider other types of places.
this budget is not including attire, rings, honeymoon, bridal party gifts we are paying for these items ourselves, may parents are giving us the k

I doubt you can keep your $20k budget if your venue, catering, DJ, and flowers are $16,500. That just doesn’t leave you enough money for everything else. The photographer is usually a big expense. Plus there is your attire, your husband to be’s attire, the rings, alcohol…. That $3,500 will be gone real quick. I’d start looking for another venue.
