“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.

I’m a brand new bride-to-be and therefore am new to this website as well. I LOVE the concept of this weekly post and find it extremely helpful. Can’t wait to explore the site more!
Thank you so much for the kind words, Andrea! I’m thrilled you’re finding it helpful and appreciate your feedback.
Awwww! This is so gorgeous and RUSTIC! Such a full table of bveauty
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.
Me parece genial y preciosa!!
I really love this! All the little decorations like the firetruck and little owls really make the piece! Love it!
This looks so delicious! I love it all!
