“Reality Check” is a weekly feature where we take a scene from a wedding and break down the estimated costs for you without comment or judgement. The idea is to give you, our readers, a realistic idea of what weddings cost.

This looks so delicious! I love it all!
I really love this! All the little decorations like the firetruck and little owls really make the piece! Love it!
Me parece genial y preciosa!!
Still loving this segment!!! I’d like to point out though, that without the firetruck, it would have been $300 cheaper! There must have been a connection to the firetruck to make it personal for the couple. If not, that seems like a waste of $300.
Awwww! This is so gorgeous and RUSTIC! Such a full table of bveauty
