QUESTION FOR ALL!!!

If you had an unlimited budget, what would be the one thing that you would improve about your wedding and why?

If I had an unlimited budget, I would improve the inside decor. I think every bride would love to have a venue totally decked out, and we are not going crazy due to our budget constraints.

This is for KnotAnnie!

    I would pay for some of FI's family to travel from Romania. He only has 3 family members in this country and it makes me sad for him that most of the guest list is my family.

    If I had an unlimited budget, I would probably worry less about the actual wedding and take a month for a honeymoon to just travel around. I have never been out of the country, and I'm seriously travel deprived.

    My wedding is over now but I would have had a fireworks show. I love fireworks. And I would also would have had it at The Driskill Hotel and went all out.

    I think I would add a cocktail hour and seated dinner. We are doing a buffet. And we definitely would have splurged on our honeymoon, we love to travel! Although I would have had to take unpaid days off, because I am out of vacation, then again, if my budget was unlimited....I guess that wouldn't matter!!!

    If I had an unlimited budget I would basically change everything as I would have a destination wedding instead in Italy. Its where ive always wanted to go and wished we could afford to fly away and marry there.

    If I could do all of this over again and had an unlimited budget, I would plan a destination wedding somewhere tropical and hire a planner to do all of the planning. We started out as a 'small wedding' and it has exploded and now I'm wishing we would have just ran away to Hawaii or somewhere and did a small intimate ceremony. I hope everyone is right that have been telling me that I'll appreciate having everyone there . . . right now I'm just not seeing it.  Sorry for the mini-rant :}

    I'm with the two PP, I would change it to a destination wedding and since my budget is unlimited I'd pay for my guests to be there :-)

    I like the idea of an awesome destination wedding and paying for the guests to be there and their accomodations.  Also I would hire a wedding coordinator which I currently don't have and pay for a romantic honeymoon.  Preferably a couple of weeks long honeymoon lol. I like the idea of it being just me and my love for a few weeks!!

    With an unlimited budget I would #1 - hire a planner instead of DIY, #2 have flowers instead of none, #3 - have a large guest list with their accommodations paid lol.

    We're already doing a destination wedding for some of us (ah, the joys of a semi-long-distance relationship), but I don't think there's much I would change, honestly. Maybe rent the house for the whole week leading up to the wedding, rather than just the weekend. Other than that, I'd do a very nice National Geographic Expeditions round-the-world-by-private-jet honeymoon instead of just going and bumming around Scotland next year.

    I would get more flowers -- many, many more flowers.  And I would have live music at the reception.  Also, I would arrange for the wedding party to have glamourous day-of transportation.  (We're going to ride with friends / drive ourselves.)  I think I would also spend more on my own dress and accessories.
