Around $35k in the northeast. I don’t necessarily regret the cost because it was affordable for us, but in hindsight we would done a smaller ceremony due to the work involved
In DC, on track for $75k. No regrets besides being born in two very large families lol
Are all of these the amounts you personally spent or costs with contributions (from parents, etc.)? Because I feel like people may regret spending their parents money less than their own
Combined contributions from both parents and us. Overall number.

~$40k in the Caribbean. No regrets and the same wedding would’ve cost 3x in the US
I agree with A1. I couldn’t believe how cheap of discounted rates we were able to get our guests at a 5 star resort. Probably over 50% off. Really is a win win since they are getting a discounted vacation to go to a cool destination that they are excited about.
But you have to know your guests. Destination weddings are not for everyone. We also had plenty of people say no and that’s fine. We knew the people we really wanted to attend would be excited
We’re on track for spending $10k for everything. That includes rings, dress, wedding, and honeymoon.
This is also in the Caribbean. I agree with EY1, would have been at least 3x the cost if we did the wedding locally since we are in NYC area
We’re in Cancun. Also looked into Jamaica and DR
On track for $50k in Barcelona

$40k, Los Angeles. It’s bigger than what I wanted and smaller than what my fiancé wanted. I wish I had pushed a little more on the size, but I think I would have still spent the same so no regrets yet from a financial perspective. It’s in a month!
$100k, Napa Valley, 120 guests. No regrets. Was a flawless evening.
Looking to stay within 75k.. north jersey/NYC ~150 guests

Like K1, ours was $30k for the northeast. Wish we had spent even less but it was difficult to do much less than that in the area we were in. I will say though I thought it turned out beautifully so don't regret it too much haha
$150k. Atlanta. Multiple events. No regrets.
$130k - NJ. No regrets, it was the wedding of our dreams. Also multiple events, Indian wedding
We are at about $25k right now for a small wedding of 13 including bride/groom. However it is in West CO and we rented a lodge/mansion for the reception/ceremony and our whole family is staying in it with us the day before and day of the wedding. It’s in a remote location. 2 nights lodging and my wedding planner have been the 2 largest expenses. Then photographer, private chef (also doing cake), videographer. Can’t say I regret it since wedding hasn’t happened yet but I have been shocked at how much certain things cost (particularly flowers!!). I don’t anticipate regretting it… I have saved for a long time and we are not incurring any debt from wedding expenses.
It is very close to Durgano! Like 2 hours away. We are doing half of our honeymoon in Durango. You should definitely have your wedding in that area if you love it, I know we won’t regret that. My fiancé and I take a road trip there every year since we got together so it was the obvious place to get married. And you can honestly have a larger wedding for what we are paying but a big part of the budget was the lodge. But I have a feeling that’s the part we are going to love the most because it’s a breathtaking location. However I wanted us to elope in the same place but he wanted his parents so I compromised and it’s just our parents and a few immediate family members.
We may or may not do a low key wedding reception back home in the next year. That’s a big reason I wanted video so I can play it at a reception in the future and it will be like everyone was there!
$25k MA. No regrets. It was such a beautiful day
LA, wedding for about 50 guests, trying to stay as close to $20k as possible which seems more like will be $25
Pro
What is your venue and what are you doing for catering? I wanted to stick to $25k but it was so difficult.
We spent about $24k in the suburbs of Chicago. No regrets at all!!
Pro
On track for around 55k, ~100 people. NYC. This already includes the corners that I have cut...
Pro
A2 - 55k has some buffer built in when I planned my budget last year (before all the crazy inflation) but given the inflation, it's looking unlikely. Wedding is next so we shall see
A little over $70k in NYC (Brooklyn) for 80 guests
Brooklyn Winery in May 2022. I think our budget could’ve fit 125 guests (which was the original plan) but 40+ of our guests ended up not coming (long story short, these are int’l guests and we ended up hosting another wedding in that country that they all went to instead), but our venue had a minimum spend so we splurged on a lot of F&B enhancements to meet the minimum. If you have a smaller guest list than 125, its probably fine if your budget is a little lower!
120kish. Flyover states. No regrets except wishing it was longer so we could hang out with people more
220. Biggest cost was the venue that handled catering as well
