They both sound pretty good from what I can tell.

We\'re probably going to do without - budget restrictions mainly, but we have friends that I studied with that should be able to do the job for us (she says hopefully :rolleyes:). If all else fails I\'ll be taking my camera anyway so I\'ll be doing the evening pics! :cool:

We were thinking of finding out how much it would cost to hire someone to do maybe 15-20 pics, just the official ones if you know what I mean - do you think we\'d get a good deal seeing as it\'s a Friday? :?:

Our photographer is charging £525 for 35 photographs including the album.

We\'re also using the videographer from his company which is costing us £425 (I think).

Bev- All the photographers I got quotes from didn\'t offer any reductions for mid-week weddings, in fact nothing I have had quotes for does :(
Begining to think it\'s an urban myth!!

Forgot to say our photographer supplies piccies with an album as well and you just pay £75 deposit and the balance when you pick you piccies which is a bit of an ease on pre-wedding finances ( I\'m refusing to go into any sort of debt for it)

Hmmm, thats a definate bummer - I think suppliers are cottoning on to this \"lets get married in the middle of the week to save money\" deal. buggers. :mad:

And I agree - I want to get married, but debt for a wedding ceremony is the silliest thing I have heard of. :no:

Sounds brilliant to me!!:o
We\'re paying £500 for 30 photos in an album. That seemed to be about the going rate for us though. If I\'d found anything cheaper, believe me, I would have taken it!!
R,xx:rolleyes:

Yeah, i think it is just the area tho. Things seem so much cheaper up in Scotland, esp the east coast where i am. I would die if i had to pay anything like some of the quotes i have seen ppl mention for various things. :o

Oh good, i have done something right lol. He actually quoted me £375. I said i didnt think it would be a big wedding as we are sending quite a few invites to family in Jersey but unsure if they will all come. So he said how about £325, i was going to pay £375 anyway so i thought great.....then he said so thats £325 for the 60 prints and the album. (exactly the same as the £375 package,but for £50 less) Needless to say i took it :D
