🤖 Output

Wedding Planning Session — 8 Months Out, $30-40K

Prompts Selected

Prompt 1: Budget Reality Check

$30-40K for 100-140 guests = $250-400 per guest. Realistic bands:

Venue + food + beverage: 50% ($15-20K)
Photography: 10% ($3-4K)
Attire (both of you): 10% ($3-4K)
Flowers + decor: 8% ($2.5-3K)
Music / DJ: 5% ($1.5-2K)
Stationery + favors: 3% ($1K)
Officiant: 2% ($500-800)
Misc / buffer: 12% ($4-5K)

Total: $30-40K achievable. Over-budget common — buffer prevents disaster.

Prompt 2: Guest List Discipline

100-140 range is large. Each guest = $250-400 in costs. Cut 20 guests = save $5-8K.

Strict criteria:

Would you grab dinner with them in normal life?
Do you WANT them there (not 'should invite')?
Do they know you as a couple?

'Plus-ones' policy: 1+ years dating or married. Not casual dates.

Kids: decide yes/no early. 'Adults-only' acceptable.
