Wedding Budget Blues
We are aware that many brides out there tackle the process of planning themselves.
Is there anyone out there on a budget…stressed…overwhelmed?! If so, here are some ideas from the pros to keep in mind:
1) Find a venue that is already nicely decorated. Venues with immaculately manicured lawns, great skyline views, or grand entryways are great ways to make a statement.
2) Have your ceremony and reception at the same location. Without the additional cost of a ceremony location, you may save bundles on your final bill. Many venues will only charge a nominal fee for usage of a ceremony space for a client who is already using the facility.
3) Keep the guest list down. Deal with your personal feelings of "excluding" people that you haven't spoken to in years. A great way to reach out to them would be to send out a formal announcement after you've exchanged vows. This keeps everyone informed and not overlooked.
4) Have your honeymoon in the off-season. Many couples find the post-wedding time too stressful with work or other obligations. No one says you have to honeymoon immediately. Off-season travel can save mucho dinero!
