What is a realistic bar tab for 150 guests (Beer, wine, cider, soft drink)?

I have done a mountain of research and the calculations people provide leave us with a figure of about $10k but then when people who have been married make comment it is far less. I just need a realistic figure to put in our budget. We are looking into having the reception as a gin distillery so their drinks are a little pricier but they haven't officially opened yet so I don't have them. Thanks!

How do I go about officiating my Hindu wedding if the priest is not recognised as a marriage celebrant?

I will be having a traditional Hindu wedding with a priest performing all the rites and rituals. Our priest performs many weddings but is not a marriage celebrant to officiate the wedding on the day with signing the paperwork. How do I go about this?

HELP! I can't decide between two videographers

I have fallen in love with two videographers and can't decide! The price difference is hardly anything. And they both offer the same services, so I'm stuck! What other things can I consider to help make the choice?

Do I need to register my wedding if I got married in a church?

This might seem like a dumb question but we were married in a church last year and got our marriage certificate from the priest - do I need to register this or is it automatically registered? Thanks

Are bridal stores taking appointments and doing fittings at the moment?

Hi there, we are planning our wedding for next year and I know the dress needs to be ordered pretty early. Are wedding dress stores open at the moment? Are they doing online viewings or anything like that?

How are formal wear stores taking appointments at the moment?

We are still going ahead with our wedding ceremony despite the restrictions. But I'm wondering how my husband-to-be will be able to get fitted for a suit? How are formal wear stores doing their fittings/appointments at the moment?

Who exactly can be a witness?

My fiance and I are having a small ceremony and just want it to be us. We are hoping the celebrant can be one of our witnesses. As for the other, can it be one of us or does have to be someone else? I can't find any specific information online anywhere. We want it to be as small and quiet as possible. Thank you in advance for any help :)
