wedding costs? :(

Ooh, this reminded me of something. So, I went to a bridal show a few weeks ago... that was scary enough in itself! So I go up to this videographer's booth, and I'm talking to him, and I ask him what his price range is. He tells me $4000 - $6000!!!!!. I said in a mildly joking voice "Wow... sorry, I think you're out of my price range... that's almost my entire budget for my whole wedding!"

Do you want to know what he said to me?

This jerk-face looks me in the eye and says "Well, if you can't afford my videography within your budget, your wedding isn't going to be worth taping anyway."

I tell you, folks, if we hadn't been in public (and had a banquet table between us) I would have slapped the man.
