    Veils

    I mean, it's like gauze or tulle. Lace it can almost understand, but it's crazy how much some of them cost.

    Flowers! I chose flowers ‘in season’ but found out my choices were stil pricier than other flowers. But I absolutely LOVE what my florist has come up with!

    Food. I've never paid 20+ for a plate of food but suddenly, at a wedding, that's the low end...

    Everything. While doing research I couldn't believe the prices of everything. Since we are having a small intimate wedding (24 total headcount) I'm making pretty much everything with help from my mom and sister

    I seriously still can NOT believe a DJ is so expensive!! All the other things I was prepared for and budgeted for, but for a good DJ and MC for our ceremony and reception, I couldn't find anything under 2k in NYC. We found someone for 2k but I was so shocked.

    Flowers. Even with only a small amount of flowers, it is still super expensive.
