    I have three venues in mind.
    1. Doing it all myself finding dj,food, cutlery and so on in a function room
    2. Pub venue supply the food bud vases cutlery and dj
    3. Hotel reception bud vases dj nights stay food top table flowers

    They all come in at around the same price. I am more going for the hotel or the pub reception because it comes with everything.

    What would you pick if it was your wedding
    Ps all coming in at or around 2k
    Whole wedding budget 4k at a push

    We're going for a venue where we get lots done for us - the one we want includes food day and night, drinks, dj, table decs, top table flowers, nights stay, and comes in at 3k.. though when we meet with their wedding planner we're hoping to try and haggle in some extras too, like the cost of the ceremony being free instead of £150... cheeky, but I figure we wont get if we don't ask :P

    It depends on your own personal tatse. I would steer away from doing it yourself as you deserve a good day!

    If it were me I would have the hotel because usually the room will be exclusive to you. With a pub you can get the public wandering in and out unless they have a function room? And the hotel sounds like the best deal with the nights stay xxx

    I think he is going for it as he had a look at the website today and had a look at the prices and he said when i got in from work so we are paying someone £200 more to do the things we are stressing about. I said yes and he said ok then i will think about it so i think i am getting what i want

    If you can get what you want from the hotel and it's in budget like you said then it is probably much easier to do the hotel option. Happy planning.xx

    I'm now a married woman
    I have a gorgeous husband
    Whats to do now
    Theres no more wedding planning to do
