  1. We're going to the Art Gallery of Ontario to see the King Tut exhibit (have been wanting to go for a while) and then out to dinner!
  2. I'm planning to pay $6000 - $8000, all depends on the 'extras' I end up getting.

  4. I really struggled with this too. I had wanted to keep it to around $1200/person but I don't think this is going to be possible. I don't have my pricing yet, but it looks like our guests will be paying about $1500/person. I've told people that as my estimate (I'll change resorts if it's more than that!) and no one seems overly surprised and they all agree that the max they should have to pay. I want to go for a week somewhere else after the wedding so I really don't want to pay more than that too! I think when it comes to a destination wedding, most people know that it's not going to be a cheap vacation. It's not like a last minute thing that you book and aren't picky on where you go...this is something that is well planned out and the resort picked for certain reasons. I'm sure as long as you keep the price reasonable, most of your guests will come!
