It's Your Big Day! Make Sure It's Perfect!

By Robert Strong


A wedding is a momentous occasion for a new couple and their families. Many people think that lots of money needs to be spent to make the day memorable and classy but this is not the case. It is possible to have a very lovely wedding without going in to debt. This article will give lots of creative ideas and money-saving tips to help you plan a day you will never forget.

Brides should learn to make decisions right along with the groom during the planning of the wedding. This will give you great practice as a couple learning to make decisions together. Even if the groom (or bride) says they do not want to help plan, ask for their opinions anyhow. You will be glad you did.

Make a list of all the questions you might want answered when looking at banquet halls for your wedding. This way you can be sure that you will not miss a question once you are there. Since sales reps can sometimes be quick or pressed for time, you might end up forgetting about things you wanted to know. A list of questions will help you keep on track.

Even if a wedding photograph looks like it isn't what you intended, keep it, at least in digital form. Sometimes the bride and groom will see a shot that they love even if the photographic composition is lacking. The couple are the final say, so leave it up to them to pick and choose their favorites.

Whenever it is possible, try to get several services from the same company. They will often give you discounts if you get more things from them. It is very common to rent all furniture from the same place that you get your catering in order to save a little bit of money.

One of the ways that you can make your wedding as convenient as possible is to have your ceremony and reception at the same location. This will allow you to save a lot of money on transportation and miscellaneous costs, which will appeal to your guests and your bank account.

Include your partner in the decision-making process for your wedding. Some people tend to make a wedding all about them, giving little thought to what their partner might enjoy. Remember that the wedding is about both of you, and you should both enjoy yourselves and have wonderful memories of your wedding day.

If your home or yard are big enough, consider having your wedding there. This can save you a significant amount over renting a venue. You can make your home beautiful with a few simple additions, such as flower arrangements and basic decorations. You also will not be limited to the time constraints of a rented venue.

Hire only the wedding services that are absolutely necessary. You probably do not need to have a wedding planner to assist you; an organized friend or family member who wants to help can do a great job instead. Similarly, you could also hire a DJ instead of an expensive band. Think about what is important to you and go from there.

Practice. Many weddings have a rehearsal and a rehearsal dinner. Gather the key members of your wedding party and practice several times before the big day, not just once. This is especially important if you have complicated or long choreography or special instructions that vary from the norm.

Though it takes time and some effort to plan, you don't need to spend lots of money to have a happy, enjoyable wedding. Use the suggestions and ideas that you read in this article and you can have a beautiful wedding day that you will always remember with joy.
