Is this a decent price for an "all inclusive" wedding?

I found this place near by and its really beautiful! They have wedding packages that include everything! Considering i've found many place that cost about this price and its just for the rental i'm thinking this is a steal..... $8750(for 125 guests...give or take) and this is whats included.

Is this a decent price for an "all inclusive" wedding?
Just out of curosity, what place is offering this package?


It sounds familiar to the package that we almost got - of course, then we read all the stipulations and realized it would cost a lot more than we thought. Like if we wanted to get married on a Saturday the price went up $5.00 per person...almost everyone gets married on a Saturday. It was the Wedgewood Banquet Center...they have lots of different places, so I would caution you against working with those people. They were quite rude as well...
Reply:I guess it depends where you live, but it sounds like a steal to me, especially since you think the place is beautiful! Go for it!





You'll have so little to worry about with all that. Note that you will still have to pay for some items: clothing, photographer, favors, etc. But still, it sounds like a great deal. See if you can get a tasting to make sure the food is good, though!
Reply:Wow, it sounds like a deal (just make sure it's not a 'too good to be true' deal - get references from couples who have recently had their weddings there, contact them, and talk to them).


Especially with the buffet menu and full open bar, it sounds like very good value.
Reply:Don't have the Buffet !


I almost made that mistake! NO!!!!!!!!


Have the sit-down...it's nicer..NO ONE

PS: What did you decide for Dresses?


Just curious. !
Reply:I think so, That is about $70 per guest.... actually sounds average. What about all the stuff your getting?? Are they quality or cheapy items. And the flowers....do you get to pick or are they gonna be carnations. Just depends on the extras and what they are offering you.
Reply:Sounds good to me! You could probably shop around %26amp; find a better price depending on where you live but if you can kill all the birds with one stone why not? That will take alot of stress off of you... :)
Reply:Very good deal, I'd go with, it also takes out some worry and hastel.
Reply:That is a BARGAIN girl,I would go for it you have nothing to lose.GREAT PRICE!!!!!!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS AND BEST WISHES.
Reply:whatever one will give you the most bang for your buck would be the way to go.
Reply:wow it seems like it to me, especially if they take care of most of the work for you too.
Reply:I think it sounds great! Where are you located?!


Only things are:


1. Request a tasting of ALL food (even if you don't select an item, how can you make an appropriate selection if you haven't tasted it)


2. Ask for a cake tasting as well.


3. Ask what flowers are available.


4. Ask what they consider "Well %26amp; Call Liquors, Premium Wines and Beers", it could be plastic bottles, 2 buck chuck wine and coors/budwiser beers.....


5. Ask to see, touch, feel all linens (also ask what colors available) - i say this because they could be plastic lined or just chintzy looking - just so you know what you're getting


6. Ask to see, touch, feel the plates, glasses and silverware - I say this because they could look and feel like Wal-Mart/bulk party goods - again just so you know what you're getting





Good luck and CONGRATS!
Reply:Wow that is an awesome price for a wedding. I mean with all of the bells and whistles, wow. Just add in the fact that you will have to add a cake %26amp; photographer. (They may charge a cake cutting fee, etc.) Still it is a great price. I couldn't find anything near that price in my area and that would just be catering not all of the extras.





I agree with the other poster - read the fine print and get everything in writing. Really check it out. Sometimes if it looks too good to be true it is.
Reply:I would check on the quality of the items. Make sure you do a food taste test of the items you will be having. Check the quality of the invitations and is there an invitation in their selection that you like? What type of flavors and fillings do they offer for the cake? How is the cake decorated? Are the linens for the tables included? If you want to do favors or add something of your own, can you? Do you like the floral decorations that they offer? Do you want a sweet heart table and tables for the wedding party and their guests or do you want a bridal table? Do they offer the sweetheart table? What type of music is played? Can you make your own selections or is it canned? Can you have soft music playing in the background during dinner? What about dancing, is there an adequate dance floor? Just some of the many questions you want to ask them before signing a contract.
Reply:a rule of thumb is price of wedding is 1 yr wages for the father of the bride so how much does he make you need to spend more i think
