The venue was an ice cream shoppe. The guy only charged us 50$ to use the place and decorations came in under 150$... Bouquet s included. 1500 total for entire wedding.

    • @interestedobserver-gk3ih
      @interestedobserver-gk3ih 3 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      Agreed but given their health set backs it might have been better if they put off their wedding and saved a bit more especially the groom. Given their jobs they don't bring in a lot of money so I can understand how hard the bride saved and why she is reluctant to spend. The groom is a nonstarter in my opinion and particularly unappealing since the bride is paying for the wedding apparently without any contribution from him. IMO both parties should be contributing to the costs even if one or the other is a millionaire. It is not your turn about anything bozo unless you are financially contributing. Why is he eating all these sweets when he is a diabetic? She deserves better than this loser.

With both their health issues (she said he’s been off work due to a diabetes issue), they could have had a very small wedding of 10-20 of their closest friends at a park, then dinner at a nice restaurant. For 20 people you could have a really great dinner for $2000 - and even if she’d paid for a nice dress, some flowers and a suit, their cost could have been under $3000. Save the rest of the money for a house down payment

      @@lostcontrol1981 Especially since she is paying for it. Evidently the groom is off work d/t problems with his diabetes yet there he was shoveling sweets. I don't see why they are getting married other than she appears to be pregnant because they like the other couples are not on the same page for a lot of things. These brides all suffer from the same delusion; it is my day so I get everything I want. Marriage isn't like that. The other delusion is they want everyone to remember their wedding when the truth is only the bridal couple is going to remember it after the first month or so. The truth the wedding is not that memorable to anyone else as much as it is to the couple. There will be other weddings and other beautiful brides.

Every one of the couples on this show say they want a ‘memorable’ wedding, but honestly, thru are ALL the same - white dress, flowers, dinner, cake, dancing …. If you honestly want something memorable get married in your backyard! Surprise the guests, telling them it’s a potluck BBQ. Have a JP come and marry you there.

      the biggest thing is your venue. If you have 120 people it really depends on how much it costs per head, alcohol included, as that's where at least half the money will go. $45 a head is very cheap. Some venues on this show were charging over $100 per head, plus alcohol

      @Becky Arganbright I agree he can eat sugar, but even T1D you need to watch your sugar consumption. Insulin needle or not, poor nutrition will catch up to a diabetic later down the road. The floaters and blurry vision is often one of the first signs. As someone who believes in the importance of nutrition, if you have diabetes, you should be more careful with your eating. Doesn’t matter if it’s 1 or 2. And doctors are not equipped to give out advice on nutrition. They are trained as reactive, not proactive. They won’t give you a prescription for eating better, just another medication. And juvenile diabetes is different, but special care is still required in addition to their prescribed medications. The Diabetes industry is a big money maker, probably half a billion annually. You definitely seem knowledgeable, and I appreciate someone who has real life experience with it.I hope your son is healthy and happy 😃

      He said that he wasn’t working for quite a long time, not that he isn’t working now. He had a accident with his diabetes and from the looks of him he was very lucky. My brother had a accident with his and was in a coma for several weeks. Once he awoke it was discovered that he could no longer communicate and has barely any control of his body. He has slight control of his arm’s but that is it. Diabetes is a serious illness that can destroy your life and kill you.

    I love this couple. They are not near as entitled as so many others. I agree about the 1980's Dynasty bejewelled look not being great. I think they could have gone for the country fair effect witht he corn dogs, popcorn and cotton candy. However, they could have gone to Costco and bought tuxedo cakes for under /$100 for all the guests. Or to save money make vanilla cupcakes and pipe on shades of pink icing. To be even more budget yet elegant they could have used white hydrangeas and tinted them pink. I do wonder about the groom - he constantly was eating sweets yet I thought he was diabetic. Also, the frugal bride should have got at least ten percent off the cotton candy for being the wrong color.

We felt that making our guests feel welcome and showing them a good time was paramount because the most important to us was just getting married. With that in mind we got lucky, our church was beautiful so didn’t need much by way of flowers. I went downtown to fashion district and got bolts of tuille and silk (with flaws because it wouldn’t be seen) extremely cheap. Had those tied to pews with ivy along with lillies and church candles and I went to the flower mart with bridesmaids to pick up the lillies, hydrangeas, peonies and roses and created two huge floral arrangements at the alter myself. We gave all of it to the church for their services the next day. The whole thing cost a couple of hundred dollars but would have cost over a thousand if done by a florist. Had an art student do calligraphy for envelopes on invitations and table cards etc. Her quote was $300 for 200 invitations and all the rest. Went to a stationary supply manufacturer and got top of the line card stock, punched holes at the top myself and tied a small satin ribbon (from the dollar store) and paid only a couple of hundred for those. Then went to printing factory downtown to get raised printing for next to nothing. A couple of hundred for all that. Had custom truffles made in the shape of sea shells made by a new choclatier wanting to promote her new business then gave her chevron seashells I’d bought (and washed thoroughly!) from the dollar store along with some netting and satin ribbon and she put together beautiful guest gifts for an incredibly low price. She surprised me by actually gifting them to me so I had the calligrapher make a small card for the table with the seating cards giving thanks to her for her lovely guest gifts. I had numerous people ask me after the wedding for her information. We did splurge on the alcohol, food, my dress (couldn’t help it!) and had a baby sitter hired, along with pizza, drinks, snacks, and dessert, in a guest room of the hotel venue so guests could bring their children to the wedding and yet enjoy adult time at the reception. The rest I got creative with. A beautiful wedding can be done, with a little ingenuity, very inexpensively if youre willing to put in a little work. It’s one way to get around the inflated prices for weddings.

      Sounds beautiful, I'm jelly! About to be 40 dunno why I'm torturing myself watching all these. I've been with the same guy since I was 14, 3 children but never even been asked, I feel sad but it's nice to see so many women out there have these awesome days! I really hope now I get to see My kids get married.

    The original necklace was more classic in many ways ,back in the 1800's larger jewelry covered bare skin,so much chest can be distracting and take away from the bride and her dress and the couple as a whole.The tiara was maybe more kids dress up,cute but worth an upgrade.The mom should have just done the flowers from the get go.She was talented,and the flowers were probably some of the loveliest I've seen on the 2000's video clips.

    If one is on a budget but time is not an essence- but, if there is neither one, trouble looms. If one has time, creative and resourceful- then a strict budget is more than doable.

  • @nativetexan6628

    I agree you must stay on budget. But you also must budget for everything. Why have a wedding at all? I lovely elopement is always an option for someone on such a tight budget that they cannot have food or drinks.
    I know I always keep the cash gift until after the wedding if its a cash bar. Lol!

    Me and my husband paid for are own wedding. We both saved our money since we were young so we could afford to spend the $40,000 dollars that we spent for the 116 people that we had.

    I was a more frugal bride than ANY of these women. But it makes sense that she's the most frugal he's dealt with because I didn't have a wedding planner due to cost. Lol
    Married 11 years and people are still talking about how awesome our wedding was. It's totally possible to have a beautiful and awesome wedding and reception without breaking the bank.

      It definitely is. Pretty much every episode someone has to confess about spending they failed to admit to earlier (like for cotton candy, entertainment or fancy transport). I don't think there are that many couples that have the exact same communication problem and just happen to be on the same TV show. I think the student photographer photos were fake, as no one is that bad. Plus her hair mishap seems fake. Funny that she would refuse to go to a salon, but then pay for herself and her bridesmaids to have hair and makeup.
