I am needing a Photographer to do a Pre-Wedding Bridal Shoot at the Dallas Arboretuem as well as 2 hours before my wedding of me and my Bridesmaids and the Groom and his Groomsmen, The Wedding itself and then Family with us (bride and Groom) after the wedding. Then of course the Reception. What is the going rate for this??

It really depends on the nature of the package and the reputation of the photographer. There's no shortcut to finding one that will work for you. You just have to shop around. Make sure you examine their portfolio as the best indicator of what you can expect. I recommend going with someone who has an established record in this type of photography. Many inexperienced photographers think that they can make easy money with weddings. However, it's one of the most difficult genres for a photographer to do right.

For that lot you will be lucky to get change from 10 grand.,

I'm not sure what the going rate is, but you could go to the Wed Connect and submit your request there. Once you put in the approximate numbers for your budget, they will send you an email with photographers that are interested in working with you. Try it out, could save you some time?
