The creator directly addresses the camera to answer the question of how much her wedding cost. She provides context about its extravagant nature (international, multiple days, six dresses), then presents a visual percentage breakdown of the budget, including travel, venue, food, and photography. After detailing key expenses and priorities, she does a drumroll and reveals the final total cost of $131,000, before reflecting on whether it was worth it and teasing a future video about her regrets.

how much the wedding cost! Is this higher or lower than u expected? 🫣
expenses do include hotels and travel for immediate family, hmua for wedding party and family, and the honeymoon travel expenses! The wedding was about 2-3 days of programming with about 130 ish attendees for day 1 and then 185 attendees for day 2!
We went to China for Kevin’s family, Taiwan for the main wedding, and then Tokyo for the honeymoon!
Full breakdown and wedding planning template + wedding budget template on my “Post Wedding Q&A” video on YouTube! (I actually shared this last year but finally getting to the short form video!)

So how much money did the wedding cost? How much did you think it cost? We had a very extra wedding, international, three venues, multiple days, a surprise musical, six dresses. But we held it in Taiwan, my favorite place on Earth, so the cost will look a little different. But take a guess worse, comment it in. The budget does include our honeymoon in Japan, flights in hotels for our families, and the China trip we took the week before our wedding. The biggest worst were still venue and food, but let me tell you, the food in Taiwan is absolutely unmatched. None of that dry salmon rank. Then it was video and photos. We hired 10 videographers and photographers and flew them out to Taiwan. This is totally not normal, but this is what we prioritize. So are you ready for the final number? Drumroll, please. A 131,000. Worse we over budget? Absolutely. Was it worth it? I still think weddings are scams, but I am someone who goes all the way with things. So even one year later, Kevin and I wouldn't have done anything differently except for a few things.
