Woman Selling Her Wedding for $15K

Entertainment and Lifestyle

New York City resident Mackenzie Newcomb is selling her Brooklyn wedding on TikTok for about $15,000.

Newcomb originally planned for a big wedding. However, after moving out of Manhattan during the pandemic, she and her now-husband decided to have a more intimate ceremony in Massachusetts instead of the large one she planned for prior to Covid-19.

With all the plans still in place, she decided to go on Tiktok and advertise her fully-planned September wedding.

“Are you an engaged New Yorker? Do you have a low budget but exquisite taste? Does wedding planning give you hives?” Newcomb asked in her TikTok video. She added that the now-available wedding date is set for September 18 at the Milk & Roses venue.

The restaurant comes complete with an outdoor garden, and Newcomb reserved 80 spots for the event. The wedding includes food, a DJ from TCM DJ Events, a photographer named Jose Melgarejo, and floral arrangements from Wild Floral Design.

In a separate TikTok, Newcomb said she actually paid around $25,000 for her wedding, but she’s asking for $15,000.

“I was really surprised that I was able to plan something this nice with that budget,” she told Insider. “I feel like that’s definitely part of the reason why people are into this, they’re like, ‘Oh my god I can’t believe there’s a wedding for this price in New York.’“

According to Newcomb, the video is “currently rolling in offers.” On Wednesday, she announced that she is now in the process of “narrowing down” interested couples. She also said the venue has given her “the green light” for the proposition, with some COVID restrictions potentially still in place in September.

While the only items not included in the package are restaurant tips and formalwear, Newcomb added that if the new bride was her size she could throw in her wedding dress as well.

Newcomb’s grandmother officiated her Massachusetts wedding, which was planned in only three weeks and included only family and no bridal party.
