Wedding planning can be overwhelming. Here’s 4 things you may not know about wedding planning:
✨ You can skip traditions:
Your wedding is exactly that— yours. Do what is important to you. Cut the cake, or don’t. Have the big wedding party, or don’t. Either way, you’re still going to be married!
✨ Expect to be flexible with your budget:
There are many expenses that come with weddings, and for a day that you only get to do once, you may find yourself spending more than you thought. Find a maximum budget and then try to plan everything for less than that, so if you happen to go over the original budget, you’re still within your limits!
✨ DIY isn’t always cheaper:
On paper, the supply cost of DIY may sometimes be easier to digest. But don’t forget about the work that comes along with creating, organizing, planning, setting up or tearing down items on your own. The cost for vendors isn’t just for the product, but for the labor, expertise, and staff that goes into creating a final product. Be honest with yourself and really consider if a DIY is worth not only your money, but your time and energy too!
✨ Your guest count directly affects your budget:
With more guests comes more everything— meals, drinks, chairs, tables, centerpieces, favors, transportation, etc… sometimes even more contracted time from your venue and vendors! Save yourself some time and headache by deciding on your guest count before you decide on a venue, or even lock in an overall budget.
