Budget Tips For Wedding Planning

[ad_1]

If you're like the rest of us, you probably do not have a money printing machine in your house. How do you plan a fabulous wedding without spending over your budget?

First plan ahead and set your budget as early as possible. Procrastination costs brides the most money in shipping rush fees, mistakes from stress and lack of choice. Plan ahead by 10-12 months. This will allow for more creative ideas on being cost effective. Creativity does not arise under stress.

Wedding seasons different based on location. Stores will run sales in the north during the winter months to boost business. Stores in the sunshine states like Florida will run sales over the summer. Depending on your location, you can plan ahead and grab items at better prices if you wait it out. Do not wait too long or you will miss out on choices. This is the number one reason to plan ahead, to take advantage of sales prices.

A bride, the other day, rushed at the last minute to buy a set of wedding bows. She ordered three custom colors. We sent the order via rush delivery. The order shown up the day before the planning like planned. However, she could have bought the same items on sale months earlier and also not paid the rush fee, if she would have planned ahead. She could have saved $ 75 on that one transaction. Imagine if she was losing that average savings on all the items on her whole wedding. You could plan a second honeymoon trip just from that.

Buying silk flowers or bows on the web works fine but not a dress. Cut costs in other areas to find the right dress. We listed the dress as one of the first steps for a reason. Everything else revolves around it. The style and color of your gown determines a huge number of other things like flower styles, bridesmaids items and even groom men outfits. Everything needs to match and the dress starts it all. If you decide to change your wedding colors in the middle of planning, you probably will not be able to take the dress back to the store. White and ivory gowns allow for more flexibility. Modern brides should hire a planner because a colored dress complicates everything else in the ceremony. If you're on a tight budget, pick white or ivory to ensure flexibility and great photos. There's nothing worse than not planning ahead, finding out your favorite colored flower is out of season and other flower selections clash with that bright gown you picked.

This is a list of items that have the largest impact on a wedding budget. We suggest you set your maximum budget and allocate it to these items before anything else. Little items like favors will not ruin the day if not found.
