For those that had Videography and Photography, who did you use? Would you recommend them?

I'm budget conscious but love outside photographers much more than I do DFAP. We won't need transportation (all events at GF and staying offsite) and if we don't use photography I'm concerned about the minimums. We have a budget of $25K for 50 people. How did you make it work into budget? We are having a WP ceremony at 2:30 with a dinner reception at WhiteHall and possible dessert party at Sago Cay.

We did it by having a morning ceremony and brunch on a weekday - that's the easiest way to slash your minimums. We still did a dessert party in the evening, and I feel like our guests appreciated it more because it was a separate event, not just another hour tacked on the reception.

If photography is important to you, you won't regret going with the vendor you really want.

We had a monday dinner reception so the minimum was $5K. We also used outside photographers. We spent our minimum on floral, mickey mouse, caricature artist, linens. I saw go for an outside photographer if you can fill your minimum comfortably.

We're thinking about doing a mini-wishes brunch and using outside photography. By sticking to the minimums, I think we'll save about $5000. Our original plan was a Monday lunch wedding.
