VICKY Pattison has opened up about her wedding to Ercan Ramadan and revealed she's had to make cutbacks due to the escalating price.
The former Geordie Shore star says their big day is going to cost "the price of a house" and her initial budget "won't even cover the flowers".
Towie star Ercan, 30, popped the question to Vicky, 36, during a romantic proposal in Dubai in February 2022.
Vicky said: "I won't talk specific numbers because that's tacky, but obviously I'm from Newcastle so it was like a house price, right?
"I gave what I thought was a really healthy budget to my wedding planner and was like, 'We are going to have the wedding of the century for this'."
But Vicky's wedding planner had bad news.

Speaking to , she continued: "She was like, 'Just so you know, everything you've told me you want is not possible for that budget - some pictures you've sent off your mood board, the budget won't even cover the flowers'."
Now Vicky and businessman Ercan are going to have to make some cutbacks.
She added: "I don't want to be paying it off for the next 10 years, or remortgaging my house for a wedding.
"I want everyone to be talking about it for years, but ultimately, I just want everyone to have a nice time."

Vicky was previously forced to hit back at critics after being trolled over sharing snaps of her trying on wedding dresses.
Alongside the stunning photos she wrote: "I couldn't be more happy to be marrying the love of my life Ercan. I've waited so long for you & for this but it was all 110% worth it.
"We are officially ramping things up now in terms of planning."
She later reposted a comment from a fan who said they didn't like the gowns, adding: "I'll just say now if at any point you don't agree with a decision we have made about our wedding, or if you don't like something. You do not have to let me know.
"This is our wedding and things will be done to our taste.
"If you really have to say something, go and whinge in your group chat. That is what that's for."
