Wedding Costs
Most people have a budget in mind when planning their wedding. It is a sensible since there are so many things that you can consider when planning your wedding party. There are essential things and then bells and whistles. Having decided what sort of vibe you like, in our opinion the 3 most important things to arrange are
1. a venue - yippee
2. a celebrant, which in turn establishies what sort of ceremony you would like
3. a band, with a DJ too
Beyond that there are of course other elements which will need your attention but they will tend to fall into place once you get started.
We do not do wedding packages as such.
Every wedding celebration at Temple House is bespoke.
Shape it with us to wow your guests.
