Wedding Saving Tips

With the many brides shopping in the market for a lesser expensive wedding I thought it would be helpful to give you a few tips on making a few decisions.

Although some brides may see a planner/coordinator as an extra expense we can save you time and money. We have the “inside scoop” on how to save in many ways.

-This is no surprise; pick a day other than Saturday. There are good discounts for weddings on Friday or Sundays, couples are even getting married on Thursdays.

-Think about having a small wedding, the more guests you have the more you will have to pay for everything….meals, drinks, decorations, chair covers..etc.

-Know your priorities and estimate the cost for them very early in the planning stage. It is easy to see many great ideas while you’re in the planning stage; however it is critical that you don’t start shopping for several items without one vision.

-Analyze your catering options and prices before making a decision, determine the comparison cost of buffet, stations, or a seated dinner. How much will you be paying for the wait staff for each? Don’t under estimate the cost and the average of a 20% service charge from your catering company.

-The bar is another expense that you should take a good look at please visit an older post for more details click here.
