Since my husband is in the military we did a legal wedding to get the military and benefits started while planning the wedding. I am leaving our home state to join where he is stationed in over a week but we are trying to get everything set up before I leave. However, me and my husband is really stressed out on paying for a split venue. The first half will be held at our church in the college town we graduated from. They are charging us $500, is this a reasonable price? (They don't have room for a reception) We are also having a hard time swallowing how much the least expensive event venue is, 4,660 before tax. This does include a meal since we are holding it at the start of dinner and we can not use outside catering. We are strongly considering cutting it down to snack bites to hold everyone over. Any suggestions?
