Your Guest List and Your Wedding Budget

You’ve set your date and  you have shared everything that has ever crossed your mind about weddings with your fiancé! The  first step that you can take as a couple is to talk about what your wedding will look like and how you will pull it off!

Prioritize what elements are important to your both and stick to your plan. If you have always wanted a photo booth, hire that service but know that something else may have to be scratched off  your list. Your budget is key to hosting the wedding of your dreams and with budget comes the guest count. Obviously the more people you invite, the more costly the day may become.

If you can’t trim your wedding guest list enough to stay within your budget, review your menu and other details of your reception. A more modest celebration may make it possible to invite more friends and relatives. By choosing one wow factor for the day and focusing on it, you will get major impact without breaking the bank.

It is possible to have a beautiful wedding day within the budget you have.  You can have a morning sunrise ceremony, hors d’oeuvres at a mid-day luncheon  or schedule  a champagne and  afternoon reception.  There are as many ideas as there are weddings.

Today, weddings are as unique as the couple being married and they reflect the personalized style of the bride and groom. If you aren’t a traditionalist, there are many options available. Spend time together discussing how you envision your day so both of you are on the same page.

The notion of an outdoor wedding at home is often viewed as a cheaper alternative. This is not always the case, so do your research and tumble the numbers before making your decision.

With your own style and vision,  you will be able to have a wedding day to remember;  all within the budget that you establish. Local area wedding professionals will work closely with you to provide beautiful ideas that don’t have to cost a lot, but will provide the special impact you are both looking for.
