“Growing up I was not the girl who had the idea of a fairytale wedding.” — Eva Marcille

There's this big curiosity about how much money I spent for my wedding, and how much per plate, and all this good stuff. Let's be very clear - I paid for my own wedding. There were no loans. Nothing was done on barter.

We were very strategic in involving people in our wedding that had great common sense as it pertains to matrimony, which is why I asked NeNe to say the speech and the toast at my wedding.

I was naive enough to think that I can plan a wedding for $80 to $100,000. I spent well over $350,000.

Making money isn't the goal; being famous isn't the goal. Being great is the goal - in everything I do.
