Your wedding day should be a joyous occasion for everyone involved. This article discusses tips for planning and pulling off a memorable wedding.
Getting married in the peak wedding season can cost a small fortune. Most weddings take place between May and September. Wedding venues are more expensive during this time. If you’re set on booking during this season, book as far in advance as possible.
When planning a wedding, alcohol needs to be a consideration as to what type you want to serve, as well as what the costs are going to be. An open bar is very costly and can become extremely expensive if open for long periods of time. With only a quick question, your venue should be able to provide you with their alcohol serving options.
Wedding Dress
Wedding dresses can be very expensive. When shopping for your dress, consider dresses that may not be categorized as a wedding dress. For example, a formal white dress, such as a prom or bridesmaid dress, will not be as expensive as a wedding dress. Even if this dress is not perfect and you need some adjustments made to make it your dream dress, it could still run you quite a bit less then an actual wedding dress.
Purchasing your wedding gown on the internet can be a budget saver, cutting down your costs by hundreds of dollars. Make sure to order early so you have time for alterations if any need to be made. I only spent $100 on my gown when I was married, but I spent another $200 on having it altered. Include this additional cost when you plan for your budget.
Add Flair
Look for a unique touch with your food such a ethnic theme, a style of cooking or something else to add flair. Choose a variety of dishes to add flair and flavor to your reception. Ethnic foods and decor will help your reception be memorable.
Pick a reasonable dress that you won’t have to starve to get into. Like any athlete will tell you, too much weight loss too quickly can result in being light-headed and dehydrated. The last thing you will want to do is faint. A good idea is to get a dress that has a corset back; this way, you can keep it on or take it off on your wedding day.
If you wish to look more stunning on your wedding day but are strapped for cash, consider renting diamonds. This gives you that look you want but won’t cost you a ton so that you can stay within your budget.
If you fail to plan, your wedding could be an unmitigated disaster. Use the suggestions outlined in the above article, and utilize them to suit your needs and make it as easy as possible to plan your wedding.
