    We had a church wedding. 74 Guests, 12 in the bridal party including us. Church service went for around 45 minutes, then we headed to a local gold club. Was a buffet style setup cos i hate choosing food for people and this way u picked what u wanted. The room was decorated with over 200 balloons and balloon trees instead of flower arrangements. Our cake was 3 tiers, 2 orange and almond and 1 fruit. It was hexagonal in shape and there was a bride on top with a husband climbing up the side. My girls dresses were shimering pink, strapless and cost $300 each. I had 2 flower girls who wore white. My dress was strapless and $2000. We stayed the night with our family in a local motel, and had Sunday breaky together. 1 week later we went on our honeymoon to Barrington Tops (NSW). I was sick the while time. What made our wedding so special (for us) was i was pg with our DD at the time- was 19 weeks! Had the best night... Cost just under $20,000

    we had a church service not the full sha bang but readings etc, we had around 80 guests all up 2 brides maids and groomsmen i page boy (just cause we wanted nephew to wear a suit )

    we had a buffet style reception we were 1 1/2 hours late to reception as pics ran over board, I have pic sof my dress and bridal party in my website link in sig, bear in mind these are pics of pics so not great quality but you get the drift

    my dress cost $1200, the reception was quite cheap in that it was a package they paid for flowers, cake, room hire, decorations etc, I think aroun $35 a head it worked out thats with all the extras, we had a 2 tier choc mud cake yummy!!!!!!!!! my girls hired their dresses as when I went in to get brochures for suit styles they had this outfit on diplay and it was eactly what I pictured my girls in cost us $100 for each outfit we paid half and the girls paid other half

    ok rambled enough LOL

    ETA we did a road trip up the QLD coast from Rockhampton (where we were married) right up to just north of cairns camping all the way we had one night I think in a motel, was fabulous
