Why VowMath does not show one fake total

A defensible total needs the event date, guest count, selected food and beverage package, the base to which each fee applies, and tax treatment. When a required field is absent, VowMath reports a known minimum plus unresolved costs rather than silently inserting an industry average.

The paid Reality Check is designed to replace this public research summary with the terms in the couple’s actual proposal.
