Simple and sweet :)
What was the photography budget for this wedding?
Could the bride have been less forthcoming with information about her wedding day? The pictures are great, but I'd love to be able to read more than one sentence answers about how/why they planned it this way.
This is actually a not-so expensive wedding. At 10 guests, it comes to about $100 per person! With the average weddings having more than 100 guests, it would be about $10,000 to have a wedding on one's property (without adding the cost for more rentals, etc.)
I would like to see a small-budget wedding with normal size guest list. That would be impressive! Thanks!
I meant to say: A not-so **inexpensive** wedding.
What a gorgeous wedding! And the wedding cake looks very delicious.
