Ok, so my FI and I were really looking forward to small tent wedding at a local Botanical Garden/farm near where we grew up. However, through the 'help' of my FMIL and grandmother our small wedding has now become a whooping 250+ people and our budget has nearly tripled.
So here is the rant... we budgeted around $2800 for rentals, tent, chairs, some tables (the church is allowing us to use most of what we need), and then flooring. We hired a wedding planner to help handle the rental stuff because we figured it would be way too difficult, but now our rentals are coming up to around $4000 and I am completely boggled by it...
Seriously, I'm confused as to how 'renting' a few tents, chairs, and tables could be that expensive. I go over what we need all the time and it never comes up to that amount. Any suggestions as to how to bring the price down? I know we have a large guest list, but we are doing the majority of the set up and borrowing many of the tables from the church for free....
