Average Cost of Wedding per State

We were slightly below average for Illinois. Of course, this dosn't take into consideration (or at least doesn't mention) The size of a wedding, so I'm curious as to what their average wedding surveyed would be! We had a 200ish person wedding and came in a good few thousand under that average.

So far I’m below Tennessee & Alabama! I’m from Tennessee but am getting married in Alabama so I have vendors in both states since the venue is right on the AL/TN line. 😊

Way under the average. Who has almost $30k hanging around for a wedding!?

Wisconsin average is $23,680...we are expecting to pay around $12k

View Quoted Comment I live in Nashville too, and we’re getting married in Alabama because everything was so expensive here! My vendors in the suburbs of Huntsville are WAY cheaper than anything I found in Nashville!

Tennessee (Nashville) even taking into account rings and our minimoon were under, just slightly.

The NM state average is $18,470. We are coming in at a grand total of $6,500 and had a budget of $8,000 so we are well below average and below our original budget.

View Quoted Comment We got married in Wilson county and were able to save quite a bit.

Even if we go over budget, we’d still be at half of the Texas average!

View Quoted Comment Girl I'm getting half the wedding gratis due to my hook ups in the f&b world.... it's still costing us $30k!!! And we are DIYing tons... the venue alone is $9k! Ughhh

I’m Louisiana as well! I think I’m right above as of now

Under for Wisconsin!

Wow I am way above Missouri. I did actually see a thing before that said Missouri's average is 35K wich I am right at.

We will end up being just over (Illinios) but there is also a HUGE difference in price between the country, the burbs, and Chicago - which is where we are getting married. So I would imagine we would be close to average if you just looked at the city.

I would be curious as to what is included in those totals. We ended up about $6,000 over the Kansas average.

I'm below the average by a small amount (Alabama wedding, Mississippi bride)

I feel like the average for Florida is much lower than what it really is. It also depends on where you are having it. Disney, the keys, or any beach really will definitely cost you about $15k for food and beverage but if you do something that’s not on the beach then I could say that is accurate.

I am right about average for Pennsylvania. I calculated everything up yesterday and told FH how much it was actually gonna be venue and all vendors and he said how. I said you! He wanted to invite all these people. I told him you better pray they don't show up.

Sounds about right for New Jersey, I’m at 35k

We're doing destination (AZ) and it looks like we'll be about 7k below their average. One of the reasons we chose it. lol
