Hello Ladies,
I got engaged on December 9, 2011 and since then I have been looking around for prices at just about every South Florida location. My budget is $5,000 so needless to say I had a very difficult time finding a location that would fit that budget. I really wanted something small and I didn't care for a reception therefore I found a place in Sunny Isles, FL where I will hold my ceremony on a veranda overlooking the ocean. My entire wedding ceremony will cost me $4,500 which includes: photography, dress, cake, location, decorations, hair and make-up, drinks for toast, officiant, room stay at the hotel, and a 3 day cruise for me an my fiancé. We are having close family and friends go on the cruise as well (each pays their own) to continue celebrating. I tell you this because in today's economy it may be difficult for one to dish out $10,000 or more to get married thus it is important to look at the alternatives.
Good Luck with your weddings!!!
