Although love is priceless, the cost of a wedding is not. On average, US couples spend $20,398 for their wedding. However, the majority of couples spend between $15,299 and $25,498 while their wedding budget is typically 50% less than the amount spent. This does not include cost for a honeymoon or engagement ring. This is why so many couples are choosing Santa Barbara as their wedding destination for their wedding celebration and honeymoon as well.
For couples wanting an affordable-low-cost affair void of all the stress (my specialty), I offer all-inclusive wedding packages specifically designed to relieve you and your wallet of the demands of wedding planning and it's associated costs. All you need to bring is your desire to get married, look beautiful and I'll do the rest...stress free!
If you have a great idea for a wedding package, I will be more than happy to customize a package to fit your wedding needs. I am all ears.
NOTE: Please add an additional fee of $350 for a videographer to any of the wedding packages. The video will be beautifully edited with music and will capture the romantic precious moments of your wedding ceremony.
Confidential Marriage license fee is $165.
