Heartfelt Wedding: A Pediatrician & Pharmacist’s $67K Celebration

Happy couple laughing on their wedding day, holding hands

He is a pediatrician, she is a pharmacist. In med school they were randomly assigned to the same cardiovascular intensive care unit. "It Starts With A Heart." Get it?
Hundreds of yards of cheesecloth that was hand dyed by Jesi Haack Design in her own bathtub. Laser cut hearts as escort cards pinned to draped dyed cheesecloth, and a parachute hanging from the ceiling. Something else you are going to love, the massive ceiling installation upstairs in the dance party. Jesi and her team hung hundreds of paper wedding bells from ceiling. There is so much more to see in the full gallery here, photographed by Brady Puryear. Read on to here about their wedding budget, it is always nice to hear how much things cost.

Please note that costs change as the years go by, and prices are subject to change. This is just one couple’s breakdown to give you a rough estimate on how much a wedding like this may cost you.

1. When you hire Jesi Haack Design and her A-Team everything goes perfectly perfect. The only thing I would potentially reconsider is my dress. It felt like it weighed 50 lbs and it was strapless! I had it fitted super snug but it still felt like it was falling down the whole night and I was very self conscious about it. Looking back I should have considered comfort when picking out my dress rather then purely looks.

2. Total budget was approximately = $67,000
