    I think if we can get it to $100pp including alcohol, gratuity, etc (pretty much everything minus flowers/music) for the reception, that would be the max.  While I prefer to be the only event happening at the time, I realize that is something I may not be able to get.  I will definitely check out the Southern Jersey board, even though I prefer North Jersey.  But like I said before...we are looking all over the state so I might find something great further south.  I wouldn't do Philly (FI hates that city...it's a sports thing Tongue out) and while I would consider PA I would prefer Jersey.

    Lolyalyssa, what venue did you end up choosing?  I've looked at the Molly Pitcher Inn online and I personally am not a fan of it...not the style FI and I are looking for.  I think it's funny that you call RedBank southern Jersey...all the people I know from South Jersey consider RB (not too far from where I grew up) to be North Jersey!  Can't New Jersey have a middle?! Cool

    So then you are really looking at $75 before tax and gratuity.  That is what you need to keep in your head because when getting quotes they will quote you before tax & gratuity not after.  

    And is 120 what you are inviting or is that the minimum amount of people you are willing to guarantee?

    FYI, the average cost of a wedding in the US is $18K, the average cost of a wedding in NJ is $28K. 

    Also I think if you are willing to go out of season you will have much better luck, summer is hard.  Your willingness to do Sunday helps.  I would think central Jersey would be cheaper.  We are paying a little under $129 including gratuity and NJ sales tax, dont foget about that.

    But if you need to be at or under $100pp including gratuity and NJ sales tax, you should lower some expectations.  You most likely WONT be the only wedding going on in that venue, you WONT be getting the extras that others want, you get what you pay for.  So you might want to consider a buffet, or not having a venetian table, or having it at a restaurant not a traditional wedding hall.

    [QUOTE]As for the other stuff, consider this from your parents point of view. They gave daughter A $x for her wedding, which covered the price for the whole shindig. Now daughter B is getting married, but she wants a bigger wedding, in NJ, in the summer, at a desirable hall, with a larger guest list. Is it fair for them to spend gobs of money on your wedding when they didn't do the same for their other daughter (regardless of the fact that she didn't want a big wedding)? In my family, my parents were all about even-steven for all of us girls. Same number of x-mas gifts, same rules, same amount of financial help. My parents are giving us a VERY small amount to go toward the wedding. In NJ, it might cover the photographer and the flowers. My sisters who will get married in Wisconsin will likely be able to throw a pretty good bash for the same amount of money. Should my parents have given me more money just because I chose a more expensive locale for the wedding? I think your parents are being fair to you and your sister and it's kind of unreasonable to expect them to adjust what they're giving you based on INFLATION and the fact that you want a big wedding. Are you and FI contributing NOTHING to the wedding? Are your parents paying for everything? You say that your situation prevents you from saving any money for the wedding, so if that's the case, then YES you do need to compromise to have a wedding that fits into your parents' budget. Sorry, but that's the truth. If you want a different kind of wedding you'll have to supplement with your own money. Or what about FI's family? What are they contributing to this whole thing? The days when the bride's family would foot the whole bill are ancient history, so maybe you could tap FI's parents for some extra cash.
    Posted by jtheiss[/QUOTE]

    Normally I would agree with you 100% on keeping everything even, however my parents made a point to tell both my sister and I that there would be no precedent set and that I would not have to have a small wedding just because she did.  That's where it gets a little upsetting.  Had they been tellign me all along "we gave your sister $x so that's what we're givng you" then yes, it would be unreasonable for me to expect/want more.  However when I'm told "we gave your sister $x but don't worry about it you won't be stuck with a small wedding just because she had one" it implies to me that they are willing to contribute more.

    FI's parents have pretty much told us they will give us what we need to make our wedding happen, but they did not seem thrilled about it.  My mother keeps trying to pull the whole "we are paying so we make decisions" thing, but they can't leave FI's parents out of the planning process if they are going to pay a significant amount.

    FI and I are trying our hardest to save whatever we can, because we intend to pay for things like invitation, pictures, etc.

    Right now the venue is the biggest issue we are having.  I know centerpieces I want and they will not be expensive, my flowers should be pretty inexpensive, and my dress will not be pricey.  We are just having a hard time finding a venue I like that is within the budget, which is why I came here for suggestions.

    If you're willing to venture just a little bit into New York state, I'd recommend my venue... I'm not sure hwat the summer pricing is, though, as I'm getting married April

    oh and you should just be happy they are giving you anything these days.  Many people myself including are paying for everything on our own and have been saving for 3-5 years to pay for our wedding.  If you cant pay for the wedding on your own you should wait a few more years, if you are young enough.  We delayed our engagement a year, and have over a 2 year engagement just to save more money.

    Try the primavera in sterling, you would be the only ones there. Their prices vary depending on the package you chose. Bridgewater manor and Berkley Plaza, but you wont be the only event going on there.

    If you read everything that I said in that post you would see that I only have a problem with her saying that if she is NOT the only one paying for it.  If FI's parents pay for 50% (not sure how much they are contributing...just throwing out a hypothetical number), then they should have equal say.

    You obviously have a problem with me, despite not knowing so from here on out, I would prefer if you did not respond to my posts unless you actually have something constructive to say.  And since you seem to think speech on message boards should be limited (see your next post), I have no problem asking that of you. <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-laughing.gif" border="0" alt="Laughing" title="Laughing" />

    F@CK YOU.  I can respond to you all I want because as you so well pointed out it's a message board and I can say anything I want.

    In fact, I am usually quite helpful. I'll even give you one more piece of advice.  Until you know what Fi's parents are paying assuming it is nothing.  And in that case they don't get to make a decision.

    I will be honest. If the Jersey City Hyatt is your style, I don't know of any North Jersey venue in your budget that will fit what you're looking for (not to say it doesn't exist, but I'm not familiar with one). I would definitely look in Central and South Jersey, Hudson Valley area and PA, as places tend to cost less in those places.

    Are you dead-set on NJ or have you considered looking in CA or FL at all? Your money might go farther there and I think it's worth at least pricing it out.

    I would also try to set a realistic budget for everything other than venue--music, dress, veil and other accessories, photography, videography, transportation, flowers, invitations + postage, rings, honeymoon, rehearsal dinner--most people are shocked when they first price these things out in NJ and it can all add up really fast.

    actually you are the ignorant one, and you arent even using the word ignorant properly. 

    A myth is something that doesnt exist like unicorns.  A stereotype is applying a generality to a group of people, which may not fit all of them but seems to hold true in general.

    First, Red Bank is NOT South Jersey, I am 5 minutes from Red Bank...and there is a Central i.e. why this board is called NNJ/CNJ

    Third, try my venue - not sure if you consider the floor "ugly" (I don't)

    www.crystalballroomnj.com its at a hotel, at the Radisson of Freehold, I booked my place 21 months in advance and it was under construction so I have no clue what the cost is now, but doesn't hurt to try.

    Whoa whoa whoa...hold up.  I never ONCE asked anyone to treat me like a princess. Or how to get more money out of my parents. Or anything like that.  I asked for reccommendations of venues that would meet my criteria and fit my budget.  You will see in multiple posts that I have thanked the people that have done that.  But I'm supposed to ignore those that choose to judge me and call me a self-centered, ungreatful, spoiled b****?  Because none of you know me, and anyone who does know me knows that is the farthest thing from what I am.  I have no idea why I even still feel the need to justify myself to you people but for some reason I am.  I never once insulted anyone or judged anyone.  I simply asked that those with opposing opinions state them in a polite way, rather than the rude responses I was getting.

    So, once again, Thank you to everyone who reccommended places and gave your advice in a nice civil way.

    becoming human, you women are too much, all I did was post the definition of 2 words, myth and stereotype. 

    Does it help if I quote the definitions?

    A stereotype is a commonly held public belief about specific social groups, or types of individuals.

    The term "myth" is often used colloquially to refer to a false story

    Is that better?

    And instead of saying that was wrong of you, you went back and edited it to say something different, and are now pretending you only posted definitions all along.

    [QUOTE]Lolyalyssa, what venue did you end up choosing?  I've looked at the Molly Pitcher Inn online and I personally am not a fan of it...not the style FI and I are looking for.  I think it's funny that you call RedBank southern Jersey...all the people I know from South Jersey consider RB (not too far from where I grew up) to be North Jersey!  Can't New Jersey have a middle?!
    Posted by JessicaLinick[/QUOTE]

    Hahaha sorry I live in NYC and my Fiance's family is all in Bergen County so whenever I go to Red Bank it feels like  "southern Jersey" to me.  I know its considered "central" but for me it seems farther because I come from the city.  OK that aside.

    So I got out my NJ Bride magazine and flipped to back and went to the "Reception Sites" section.  (Have your Mom buy one at the grocery store or Barnes and Noble in NJ).  It breaks down the receptions sites by price and county etc...  It can be VERY off in terms of price but you can generally look at the lower number $80 and up to see that you will never get them below $80.  Many on here will criticize this but in my experience it helps you make a list of places to google and start calling. 

    So here it is, everything that is $80pp as the lower number (or less), by county NOT including tax/gratuity:
