QOTD #2

With all the hype of the Royal Wedding and who should pay for it, and how much it is costing:

1. How much do you think the average wedding cost here?

2. Would you spend more money on your wedding if you could have?

3. Do you think it's dumb that they prince and Kate won't kiss in the church?

Re: QOTD #2

  • 1. How much do you think the average wedding cost here? $20k, maybe that's too high...I have no clue

    2. Would you spend more money on your wedding if you could have? Hellz NO!  I would have cut more looking back on it.

    3. Do you think it's dumb that they prince and Kate won't kiss in the church? Totally!  Kiss the girl at the church, don't have a rehearsed kiss on a balcony hours after the wedding.

    1. How much do you think the average wedding cost here? $20,000

    2. Would you spend more money on your wedding if you could have? No, my wedding was perfect and I can't see spending more.

    3. Do you think it's dumb that they prince and Kate won't kiss in the church? Absolutely.  I also think it's dumb that Prince William won't wear a wedding band and they are only doing a single ring exhange.

  • 1. How much do you think the average wedding cost here? $20k

    2. Would you spend more money on your wedding if you could have? No- I loved everything.  I don't think spending more would have really made that much difference anyhow

    3. Do you think it's dumb that they prince and Kate won't kiss in the church? No- they're just following protocol set by the Church of England.  It may seem weird to us, but that's just their traditions. 

    Now the not wearing a ring...that's odd!

    With all the hype of the Royal Wedding and who should pay for it, and how much it is costing:

    1. How much do you think the average wedding cost here? Somewhere between 20-25k????  I really don't know, that seems like a lot...

    2. Would you spend more money on your wedding if you could have? I could find things to spend the money on, but I was pretty happy with the way things turned out!

    3. Do you think it's dumb that they prince and Kate won't kiss in the church? It's a little strange.

    With all the hype of the Royal Wedding and who should pay for it, and how much it is costing:

    1. How much do you think the average wedding cost here? $20-30K

    2. Would you spend more money on your wedding if you could have? Of course!

    3. Do you think it's dumb that they prince and Kate won't kiss in the church? I hadn't heard that's what is happening. And yes, I think that is dumb. Kiss in the church! What's the big deal?

    With all the hype of the Royal Wedding and who should pay for it, and how much it is costing:

    1. How much do you think the average wedding cost here? I'm guessing about 20k here.

    2. Would you spend more money on your wedding if you could have? Depends.  If it was free money that could only be used for the wedding, then yes.  If I could decide to use it on things other than the wedding, then I would save it.  We could have spent more money, but I had other things I wanted to do with that cash.

    3. Do you think it's dumb that they prince and Kate won't kiss in the church? Not dumb, its just not part of their ceremony.  I'm episcopal (basically church of england) and there is no place to kiss in the ceremony.  We did it at the peace, basically just for a photo op.

  • 1. How much do you think the average wedding cost here?  Isn't the national average something like $28,000?

    2. Would you spend more money on your wedding if you could have?  Maybe a little, but not that much.  Just enough to not have to stress about every penny.

    3. Do you think it's dumb that they prince and Kate won't kiss in the church?  Whatever.  I haven't been following the story at all.  I'm sure they'll do plenty of kissing later!


  • 1. How much do you think the average wedding cost here? 15 - 25K I know that is a wide range so If I had to pick a number I guess I would say 20K

    2. Would you spend more money on your wedding if you could have? For the photog yes, I hated mine I should have spent the extra 1K

    3. Do you think it's dumb that they prince and Kate won't kiss in the church? I guess, didn't know until I read this.

    ETA: Wow I had not looked through the responses I guess we are all on the same page.

  • 1. How much do you think the average wedding cost here? 20k? It's hard to say because I think there's such a wide spectrum.

    2. Would you spend more money on your wedding if you could have? Nope. But I wish we had more for a longer honeymoon lol.

    3. Do you think it's dumb that they prince and Kate won't kiss in the church? Yes.

  • 1. How much do you think the average wedding cost here? probably between 20-25K

    2. Would you spend more money on your wedding if you could have? Nope, the only thing I would change was the photographer - he was expensive and he still sucked.

    3. Do you think it's dumb that they prince and Kate won't kiss in the church? I didn't realize until I read this - I guess so, but I am excited about the kiss at the balcony :) haha - I'm a huge royal wedding dork!

  • 1. I read a stat while planning my wedding that it's ~ $50k. Including rings and HMs though.

    2. If I was loaded yes.

    3. I didn't even know that...

  • 1. How much do you think the average wedding cost here? w/the economy the way it is now, i'm saying $15k-$20k

    2. Would you spend more money on your wedding if you could have? nope, probably try to spend less, though we were under budget at least...i can't imagine spending more money, I'd want to use it for other things....I always thought my dress was expensive at $700 or so, then I watch "Say Yes to the Dress", I can't imagine spending $1,000's on it!

    3. Do you think it's dumb that they prince and Kate won't kiss in the church? they are following the church, but for myself I could never do it....but I was at a wedding reception w/no dancing, the bride wanted it, but her parents were very strict baptist or something & they didn't allow dancing...
