Nightmare wedding, how can we keep costs down?

March 11, 2008

I have a real issue with my wife in the latest wedding she is in.  It is completely out of control!  The bride likes expensive taste, which is fine, so I didn’t complain when the dress was in the 200 dollar range.  It is everything else that is completely out there!

Bridal shower – 300 dollars a person.  There are 6 people in this wedding!

Bridal shower favor (yes, I thought that would be included in the price too) 55 dollars a person

Bridal shower gift (when will it end) 92 dollars a person!!!!

Total bridal shower expenses:  447 dollars

Bachelet party – 165 dollars a person (this pays for dinner, limo, hotel, and entertainment.  This does not pay for liquor.  My wife is not going to buy any liquor since she is pregnant)

Now, I don’t see why a limo or hotel is in order.  For my wife’s party, which the bride had planned, did NOT have a limo, or hotel, or nearly this many expenses.  She went cheap, but nice for her.  Now, in return, she expects these expensive things.  She even made a comment that my wife isn’t the type of person that needed expensive things but she does.  That is one of the crappiest comments I have ever heard.  Well back to the prices…

Wedding day – hotel 200 dollars.  Nails, hair, and everything else, I would guess 200 dollars.

Grand total:  1212 dollars!  THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE A WEDDING GIFT!

Can my wife not go to the bachelet party?  With a baby on the way, I can think of much better things to do with 1212 dollars.  I like this girl, don’t get me wrong, but no wedding should be THAT much money to be in.  Am I wrong?  If you have some suggestions, I am open to hear!
