i am so overwhelmed
Engaged not so recently and we have been putting off the wedding thing because of life and honestly we do not know where to start.
We knew we would end up in Boston, (here we are!) so planning a New England wedding. my family is from midatlantic so it is not an unreasonable travel for them but have friends from all over. Including some from out of the country.
Our budget is 25k. I thought this was very reasonable but now I am so overwhelmed looking at packages. I am sure it is cheaper to book everything separately but I don't even know where to start. We dont have any close family or friends who have planned weddings in the US. We really need to nail down the venue so we can get things started, that's correct right? Venue first and the other stuff may depend on the venue?
Venues wishlist:
Guest: 100 people
Would like somewhere that has lodging for most if not all of our guests
Within 2.5 hr drive from boston logan? Also, we would really like to coordinate shuttles for our guests, any tips?
other things I am so confused about... bars? We are not big drinkers, some of our friends may imbibe but not most. We do want to pay for their drinks, is a consumption bar the best option?
We plan on spending most of the budget on venue and food. (going very budget thrift for wedding dress).
this is a ramble. i am overwhelmed by zola. by herecomestheguide. Help!
