Hi Steve

I am currently organising my own wedding in norfolk (4th august - note it's the day BEFORE the start of the season in case we're at home on the 5th), so I can share my experiences with you.

The rough costs are approx:

Cake - ?350
Band - ?500 - ?1000 (I decided not to scrimp on the band as it's the main part of the evening do)
Photographer - ?anywhere up to ?1500+ (although I do have a superb photographer if you want a referral).

I could go on but this isn't really a wedding ideas board, but if you want a more indepth chat, e-mail me at james_balls@hotmail.com.

Good luck.

OTBC
