Retro Flame #8

[Justlookingby]

Unfortunately I do think there are some chumps in her DMs begging

I mean I can believe it too but I’d classify it more as ‘asking’ verses ‘begging’. I’m more point out the words she chose to use.

Though I do think that the sister does a lot of those ‘please tell me where you got this’ type messaging that she shares.

She’s way too frozen looking for 34. A little goes a long way but she’s had the opposite effect - looks 10 years older

Brought that far to design an all cream layout? That’s wild to me

I’d say the cost of the flowers was eye watering!!!!!

 

[irishjen]

The flowers alone would have run to the thousands. Where is the money coming from? It's bonkers spending

I actually can't believe the level of over sharing at this stage. I feel like I was at that wedding myself, no moment kept back, i thought she was a private enough person. It's ridiculous.

That wedding wasn't anything near that amount. Max €75k

Tens of thousands. For sure

I know someone who works as a luxury wedding planner in Ireland, often has weddings in Adare. She didn’t do Erika’s. But she won’t touch a wedding under a 100K budget and her fee alone is 10% of the wedding cost. I’ll ask her what she thinks of Erika’s the next time I see her but honestly I’d say at least 150K upwards for 3 days in Adare. If not over 200K if she paid for everyone’s accommodation.

 

[Ciaranicola]

The wedding guest rate is 650e per night in adare (saw this for another wedding this month so accurate enough) and most people stayed two nights. So accommodation alone was probably 20000 +

 

[bellbells16]

I think she had people there for 3 nights: the rehearsal dinner, the day of and day 2.

a person earlier in the thread said they knew someone going and it was 80 guests and Erika was paying. In her seating plan there’s 83 envelopes. So adds up.

3 nights @ 650 = €1950.

for arguments sake let’s say the 81 guests were all doubled up in a room. 40 rooms.

40 x €1950 is €78K just for accommodation.

(Yes I have nothing better to do today!)

 

[I got up at 5am]

There’s no way she paid for the accommodation

The average wedding now in a nice 3/4star hotel is about €75K all in. Hotel itself, cars, flowers, dresses, suits, band, dj, church, hair and make up, photographer, videographer, cake, honeymoon, other things too
Jade moynihan realised that b4 xmas that they couldn't afford it and have to go with a bbq and a dj now instead
€75 wouldn't cover half of eirkas wedding

 

[Lmg1111]

She's gotten tonne of discount/gifted items for sure

Average wedding cost in Ireland is €35000 all in. Yes, some go way over and a lot way under.

No way did she pay for guests accommodation and why would she.

Someone mentioned previously that she did.
Maybe she didnt
