  • The total sum is 6030$ and I think it's a bit high budget. If you wanna reduce your budget then you can reduce amount from entertainment & catering and other all are looking good. Also it depends on your no. of guests as well as more no. of guests then lots of preparations have to do. think about it!!

    Hair and makeup Bride £180.00

    Not booked hair, makeup lady will do 2 x people for £110 so cost would be £55. Wowee...I will attempt to get my skin clear and in good condition before August in the hope that I manage to be able to do my own makeup. My issue isn't eye makeup, I am good at that but at the moment I am spotty but also have dry and oily skin so foundation slides off. It looks a mess so I don't bother wearing foundation.


    If you have problems with foundation (or any make up) staying in place then I'd wholeheartedly recommend Final Seal. It's designed for use in theatre to hold make-up in place under the hot lighting and it's amazing stuff. You just spritz it on over your make up. By the end of a long day I still look like I've just done my make up! I got mine off of ebay >>> http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ben-Nye-Professional-Final-Seal-Make-up-Setting-Spray-1oz-2oz-8oz-/331109208371?pt=UK_Health_Beauty_Make_Up_Sets_LE&var=&hash=item4d17a59133
  • Looking for one for a joint 40th but wow they are expensive!

    From my research so far I can have online only + DVD (no prints) for £225 (3 hours) but then whats the point as no guests will see the photos or get a keep sake or print and proper ones range from £325 - £595!

    Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced option - I live on the Leicestershire / Northamptonshire border (Midlands).

    Thanks guys :beer:

    Surely if you have the DVD you can do prints at somewhere like boots, jessops or photobox for much cheaper than the official photographer prints. also why would no-one be able to see them if they were online?


    We're getting a files-only photographer for our wedding, that way we can pick and choose the ones we want to print out for an album at a later date (loads of online options to order albums or photobooks) and can maybe get some canvases printed.
    Officially saved enough to cover the cost of our wedding! :A

    Don't forget that with files/DVD only deals you need to check that you're getting edited files which are ready to print, as opposed to files straight out the camera :cool:
    We're all doomed

    Oooh yes, good point, otherwise you might have to pay for edits (We're getting 50 edits thrown in and can pay for more at a later date)
