Gratz on ur upcoming wedding, infact i am preparing for mine too.
My wedding is end of this year.

Wedding Album = 4k
Proposal Ring = 2k
Wedding Band = 2k
Buffet Dinner = 3.5k
O/s Accomodation = 2k
Bride Dowry = 10k
Ang Pao Disbursement = Should be few hundred
Wedding Dinner = 30 tables at 1.3k ea @@ (Angpow not sure can cover or not cry.gif )
Actual day photo = 800, you need video? I feel like its kind of waste since you won't be watching it in future.
Honeymoon = Haven't plan budget 10k
Reno house = Big headache, reno + furnitures should be above 50k

KL restaurant now hardly you can find below 900, as I have surveyed alot. Price nowadays have increased to a least RM1k per table but people mindset is still RM100/head angpow. rclxub.gif rclxub.gif

please dont expect the angpow given to cover the dinner cost. be prepared  to top up.
i'm doing one this year in ipoh.

pre wed photo = 3.6-4 (freelance photog + freelance wedding gown)
actual day vid/photo = 2.1
bride dowry = 10 tables of dinner + (the gor dai lai cost)
accommodation = 3.5k (heng dai + close relative)
honeymoon = postpone as long as possible. LOL

in the beginning i've already told my wife no bridal shop package because i hate it and i feel it is not worth it.

calculate and spend wisely. don't start the new journey in debt.

Bro, wise choice of not choosing bridal shop package. I signed one of the quite famous bridal shop last year from the wedding fair. It cost me RM4k+ but the service is super lousy. I have not taken my pre-wedding shooting yet and due on this coming Friday. Hopefully they can produce a better photoshoot skills and output else I'm going to get mad and blast them kao kao.

Tell you this type of bridal shop is money-sucking business, whatever extra you need to pay pay pay. Even rent a shoes need to pay LOL.
