Marriage is an important day in a couple's life. That is why every family strives to make the day of transition to a new stage of life unforgettable for both them and their guests.

Modern weddings are basically show-type parties that require special planning and appropriate expenses. Recently, wedding parties have moved from halls to open spaces.

Event planner Tatuli Tskitishvili talked about the planning and costs of wedding parties.

- Tatuli, what is the average cost of a wedding in Georgia?

- Every wedding price is individual, depending on the couple's requirements. Our management always takes into account the couple's financial situation. A low-budget wedding might as well look pretty. Price of restaurants in Tbilisi starts from 100 GEL per person. There are occasions when a wedding is held in the courtyard of the villa and so the main focus is on creativity and decoration.

- What are the main requirements of couples?

- Mostly they still ask for a traditional wedding. In most cases, requests are made to Georgian singers, whose fees range from $1,000-10,000. However, depending on the performer, sometimes the price is confidential. The demand is usually for Georgian Voices, Theatre Quartet and David Gomarteli. No matter how underground they want the wedding, eventually they end up with a traditional one.

- What is the average wedding dress cost?

- It depends on the dress, and also either we’re buying or renting it. Prices start at 700 GEL and sometimes cost a colossal sum. We’ve got the same case about a wedding cake, starts at 1000 GEL, and increases according to its form and content.

- A makeup and a hairstyle are important for the bride. How much does the service cost?

- Prices for hairstyles start at 100 GEL, and 70 GEL for makeups.

- What does the process of planning the most important day in a couple's life look like?

- We always try to make sure that weddings are not alike, so all weddings are as different as possible. Once the bride wanted to make an unconventional wedding analog and we managed to do so. It was as if the couple had rings left at home, and there was no one in the house. At this time, we showed a video showing that only the dog was at home, and that their four-legged friend entered the wedding with wedding rings hanging around the neck. In general, the wedding depends on the individual desires, so it is difficult to determine the specific price.
