Wedding cost break down into a few category

1) Dowry
$1888,$2888,$8888 and so on for dowry $$ and more if u can afford
Also add about 1k for cakes and etc

2) Wedding Dress / Photo shoot
5k budget should be more than enough for normal case)

3) Ang Pao
See how many sis they have, the typical amt to cover each sis mouth is $40 to $88, more if u can afford :)

4) Wedding Course dinner/lunch
need 10-20% deposit for the total table committed
Not to worry about this as u can request your bank to provide extend ur credit card limit for this case.
Depending on ur guest, u can cover the cost of the dinner from their angbao

base on the above guidelines..hahha u can do ya maths :)

The key here is :-
Have money do a grand wedding. :cheer:
No money, do a simple ROM & a few tables will do. :ashamed:

Many people spent so much money, time and effect on their wedding day :thumbsdown: more than their marriage. :jaw-drop:
Wedding is a day. Marriage ia a lifetime.
Spend more time, effect & money on your marriage. :thumbsup1:
At this bad time best to do a simple wedding. :BigClap:
