Trust me, I was very surprised. Make sure you have no financial committment on your end. A lot of these places wanted me to pay for the unused block of rooms.

Holy freaking coincidence. We definitely have no financial commitment but that may cause some problems… we have all 120 guests traveling (mostly from NY) and we’ll need a good 40-50 rooms. However each hotel would only give us up to 20 rooms with out a financial commitment.

and people are nuts, you’re absolutely right about picking a budget and sticking to it. My fiancee’s parents are pretty much footing the whole bill but they gave us a number to work within. Whenever I put my foot down and say: we don’t want that, we don’t need that, we can’t afford that, they say oh that’s a gift its not part of the budget. That’s incredibly nice and all, but as two kids fresh out of college I’d rather have a small manageable wedding as opposed to spending spree.

A spending spree isn’t too bad when I’m not paying for it, but now I’m told I have to foot the bill for the honeymoon… it makes no sense. :banghead

At least I made it clear no videographer. I don’t want to see my drunken family on tape. Ever.
