i say january or february . Harldy anyone is on holiday because Christams and new year are over and apart from easter coming up there arn't really any good places to go . So I mean everyone will be able to come .

Usually the weather is cold but too cold for it to rain. And you don't want it to rain. It isn't to hot either because when it's too hot it's not nice !

Also by having a winter wedding you can wear some shalls, cardingans I don't know what you call them ! But an extra accesorie ! lol

Anyway do as you please

Have a lovely wedding

my love

alice

You can invite 150 guests (120 will show up) and have a nice wedding just about anytime and anywhere. You can spend $20 a guest on up to thousands per guest depending on what you are preparing. If you rent a large hall (such as at a firehall) you can hire the caterer yourself and cut costs. Maybe someone in your family will make the food, or you can get a good Italian caterer to whip up some pasta and salad to go along with your wedding cake. Most clubs and restaurants would charge $50 per person and up (average might be $100 per person for luncheon and more for dinner). That's a thing to remember...afternoon receptions are usually less costly than dinner receptions.

The most expensive time of year to get married is around a holiday (thanksgiving, christmas, new years, valentines day, easter and mother's day)...most brides choose to get married between june and october. If you don't want to pay a lot for your wedding (reception at least) then do it in the off-season, from about november to april/may...most vendors (caterers and florists etc) are looking for jobs to fill in the long gaps between the end and the start up of the busy season. Depending on where you are looking to get married, you can pay as little as 65 to as much as 165 per plate for a sit down dinner...assuming that 120 guests out of the 150 invited show up, that is going to cost you at least 7,800 just for the food. Then you have to add in the cost for the open bar (if that is what you choose to do) which will be around 60-70 per person for 4 hours...

If you have more specific information, like location or date, then get back to me as I can be more helpful with that kind of information. My email address is jackie@eleganzaintima.com...Good luck!

OK - start here - it is YOUR weddding and the guest list should be decided by you two. The size of the wedding should be based on how many u want and what u can afford. Find a location that suits your needs and tastes, and have it not too far from the site of the ceremony. Choose a time of year that is not around a major holiday and is not a foul weather time. And one last thing - invite me! lol

We were married in the middle-end of July. Our wedding and reception was at the church we belonged to, so the cost of the reception hall was only $275. (including janitor)

If you aren't having an indoor wedding, then find a time of year that has good weather (typically) for your area.

Also, look at botanical gardens, restaurants, etc. Some restaurants don't charge for the space because they require you to buy your main food from them.

depending on where the wedding is i think fall is a great time of year. we are getting married in hawaii, because that's where we currently live and we chose the fall. and as far as money, it depends on your buget. like what kind of food you're going to have, your dress price, flowers, gifts for wedding party, etc. hope this helps!

get married at lake Tahoe and do it around summertime, i have been there throughout the summer and winter, you can do it outdoors or they have little halls that you can go to and also it is always beautiful there so you can also do it in the winter with all the snow it looks so beautiful! if you take my advice go to eagle falls! there is a gorgeous waterfall, i have seen people get married there!
