You’ve set your date and you have shared everything that has ever crossed your mind about weddings with your fiancé!

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 a 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.

" A happy marriage has in it all
the pleasures of friendship, all the
enjoyment of sense and reason, and
indeed, all the sweets of life."

What else matters.. She's not perfect! You aren't either and the two of you may never be perfect together, but if she can make laugh cause, you to think twice and admit to being human and mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not thinking about you every second of the day but she will give you, a part of her that knows you can break her heart, so don't hurt her, don't change her , don't analyze and don't expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad and miss her when she's not there .... ♥
