How much do weddings actually cost?

I just got engaged 💍 And we said we werent going to start planning yet as we would wait to save up money. But how much money do I even need to save?

How much are things like wedding rings, bands, makeup artists, photographers etc? I want to have a rough idea of what Im in for before I actually go contacting suppliers etc.

Anyone who could give me a rough idea of what these things cost (particularly in Donegal) would be ideal. TIA

Do people automatically move up on the pay scale?

NQT here. Just wondering how the pay scale works? I was doing a lot of subbing last year, does that mean that I move up on the scale this year? Does it happen automatically or do I have to apply for something.

Sorry if this is a stupid question I just don't wanna be missing out if I could be getting higher pay.

When Do I Join a Union?

I've just finished my PME. Im not with any Union. Honestly, I know fuck all about unions. I know there's TUI and ASTI, and I did take out a student loan with the TUI CU. But I've no idea the purpose or benefits of a union or which one I should go for.

What concerns me is Im subbing in a school at the moment and heard them talking about an ASTI ballot vote thing. And they said that this was an ASTI school. Does that mean if I chose to join TUI I couldn't work in that school anymore? Do you join a union after you get a job in a school and just go with the union they tell you? Im very confused and don't want to ask teachers in the school for fear they will think I'm an idiot.

TIA
