The reality star had previously spoken of her “heartache” at the sums she spent on her and Ercan’s (30) “dream wedding”.
She admitted that the horrendous sums she had spent on both weddings “cost as much as a house,” but were still “not enough money” for her wishes.

Four wedding dresses
Although Vicky compared the cost of her wedding to “the price of a house,” she still decided to buy four wedding dresses.
Although she tried to be a little sensible at times – by cutting her budget for flowers – Vicky insisted on wanting to wear four dresses for a big day.
Vicky told Rock My Wedding: “I knew there was a lot of money to be made in weddings and, as I said, it’s not my first time in this business but everything is just getting more and more expensive.”
“I was really shocked.”
“I don’t want to spend the next 10 years paying it off or remortgaging my house for a wedding,” she added.

Welcome dinner and flower arrangements
While most brides prefer to spend a lot of money on a stunning floral arrangement, Vicky preferred to spend her budget on other aspects of the wedding.
At their Italian wedding in Puglia, Vicky and Ercan will host a beautiful evening reception and dinner.
However, her floral budget was still horrendously high for a wedding – although she admitted that she didn’t focus on the floral decorations.
Vicky pointed out the similarity of her future wedding to Olivia Attwood’s £200,000 wedding.
Although she admitted she has a smaller budget than the former Love Islander, Vicky said the price of flowers was pretty “accurate”.

Two ceremonies
Vicky and Ercan tied the knot at their ceremony in the UK in front of their closest friends and family over the weekend.
In the location known as the “Rock & Roll Wedding”, Sir Paul McCartney and Nancy Shevell, Liam Gallagher and Nicole Appleton as well as Antonia Banderas and Melanie Griffith have already said “I do” in the elegant surroundings of Marylebone Town Hall.
Vicky gave a sneak peek at her wedding in the UK wearing a 1960s style dress and said she loved the look with the short veil and big sunglasses.
She admitted that her budget got “slightly out of control” while planning her big wedding in Italy.
The TV star planned a week-long party for her guests, 13 bridesmaids, four dress changes and a flower girl – who will be none other than TOWIE’s Pete Wicks.
