I spent $294,000 dollars on my wedding.
I booked a boutique hotel in Mexico that is only 34 rooms- so I could book the whole thing.
I paid for all accommodations- food, alcohol, etc, for 3 nights for all the guests.
It was cheaper than doing it in LA.
Here are the details:
1- me and my wife have been together for ten years.
We got married 5+ years ago at the courthouse.
But we knew we wanted to have kids soon, so we decided to finally do the wedding party.
We live in Los Angeles, but have friends and family from all over.
I’m from Washington state, we lived in Texas, her brother is in Utah.
If we picked LA- at least half the people would be flying in.
2- asking people to travel for weddings is a lot.
I am also from a poor area, and frankly my friends and family wouldn’t have $2,000+ to drop on travel and hotels.
Everyone has kids and shit, so having people fly in just gets expensive fast.
3- LA venues are crazy.
We looked at hummingbird nest ranch, and they wanted $100,000 for the day.
We looked at some party hall rentals and they wanted $25,000 minimum, plus you had to use their food and bring in bathrooms.
The best one we looked at was the Greek, the music venue.
It’s owned by the city and because of that you don’t pay the wedding tax.
You could get the whole venue for $25,000 and use whatever vendors you wanted.
But by the time we started specking everything out, it seemed like you couldn’t do a big wedding party in LA for under $100,000
4- we hired a wedding planner, Chloe Skelly (very good and cool), and she is the one who floated Cabo to us.
If people were already flying in, why not have them fly to Mexico?
We did a tour of a few places and hotel San Cristobal really stood out.
Very remote. An hour up the coast from Cabo. Small venue, so you can have the whole hotel. Great food, fish caught right there, gardens growing vegetables.
So then we ran the math.
5- there are lots of ways to get married in LA for cheap
But when you start adding in venues, vendors, rentals, hotels and travel for the guests.
The total economic burden was easily 300k.
So we said fuck it.
We can afford it, let’s give our friends a great vacation.
We ended up giving 60+ people an all expense paid vacation for the same cost of what LA would be.
My tips:
- don’t do this unless you can afford it.
Me and my wife were happily married for free at the courthouse.
- never go into debt to do this.
This was something we could do once and not think about.
- if you are doing this, a wedding planner is key. They will have local vendors and know prices.
- the photographer and video people were so expensive because they had to be flown in. You could save 20k going with local talent. We loved working with May Iosotaluno- she did our engagement pics, so we went with her.
- you could do this WITHOUT paying for everyone and still have a great time lol
Why am I sharing this?
Just so other people can know what’s possible and the cost of stuff.
Not enough people share real costs.
So hope this helps some future married couple!

@big_duca Ive been married for years. Finally did the wedding last year. Doing it at a venue in La would have been that or more. So I booked an entire hotel in Mexico for 3 days and paid for the whole thing for the guests. Basically the same price, except they got a vacation

I’ve been saying this for years
McDonald’s is good for you

Reminder: McDonald's hamburger patties in the US are made from 100% USDA-inspected beef with no fillers, additives, or preservatives… …and… …they are grilled on a flat-top griddle with no added oil, butter, or fat Patties paired with 1 bun + a Diet Coke = a HEALTHY MEAL
