Plan the Most Magical Wedding
Planning a wedding can be an exciting, but daunting task. There are so many decisions to make! From the venue, to your cake, there is no shortage of things that need planning. In order to avoid last minute stress and ensure a perfect wedding, it is important to plan ahead.
Hire a good photographer – Finding the right photographer is key. Having a good photographer will ensure that you have lots of beautiful pictures to look back on, after your wedding! Portland Maine Wedding Photographer: Catherine J. Gross will elevate your wedding to a whole new level.
Make a list of what you need, and who can do it for you – This will save so much time! Once you have everything down on paper, start contacting people/places to see if they can accommodate your requests. Having a list of everything you need will not only help ensure that all your bases are covered, it’s also going to make things less stressful because you won’t have to worry about forgetting anything! Make sure though to get multiple quotes from different vendors for each task/item before finally making your decision on who is best suited for the job. When searching around, ask if they offer any special discounts or coupons as well – this can really save some money in the long run!
Start saving now – There are so many expenses involved when planning a wedding. If at all possible, start putting away funds into an account designated just for your big day regardless of the size of your wedding because you’ll need it. There are so many hidden costs that pop up out of nowhere, and this way you don’t have to worry about where the money is going or if there will be enough left over for things like a honeymoon!
Don’t forget about your budget – This may seem fairly obvious but planning a wedding can get pricey quickly especially when hiring live entertainment (a DJ) which tends to be one of the most expensive expenses involved in any type of party or event. However, just because something is costly doesn’t mean it has to break the bank either; find some alternative options while still maintaining quality service. A great example would be an iPod with speakers instead of renting another sound system from another vendor. You can also save money by cutting on the amount of guests you invite, and how extravagant your wedding is (no need to go all out if it’s just going to be a small affair).
