Hi all,
We have a venue in mind that is perfect for our wedding in a year, but after looking at all of the financials, I'm worried it's too expensive. The venue is The Gardens at Los Robles Greens in Thousand Oaks, CA. We are being quoted for 130 guests:
-$3000 ceremony fee and reception site fee (includes bridal suite, white folding chairs, sound system)
-$70 pp catering (includes cocktail hour, reception area, dance floor, tables, chairs, floor length linens, napkins, china service, cake cutting, champagne toast, coffee, tea, soda, 6 hours event time, ceremony rehearsal, and food tasting)
-$23 pp beer and wine package
-$540 for security
-$350 for patio heaters (since it will be in January)
Everything with service charge and sales tax comes out to about $20,000. I would appreciate your thoughts!!
