Northern New Jersey is one of the top most expensive places to have a wedding. We understand how expensive weddings are and we love helping brides save as much as they can and still get the wedding they always dreamed of. Here are some tips we'd like to share.
- Probably the most common way to cut cost on your wedding is to pick an off season month. And to cut cost even more, an off day. Maybe a Saturday afternoon wedding in November. Or a Sunday in February.
- Let friends or family help. Chance are you have a friend or family member that has a business in the events field. Maybe you know someone crafty that can do your centerpieces, or someone that does invitations, hobby in photography. Let them help as their gift to you.
- Buy your own flowers, use silk flowers or even grow them yourself!
- Have your wedding ceremony and reception at the same location. This cuts cost for limousine services and you may be able to see if vendors will give you a small discount if they will be doing less traveling that day.
- Stick to that budget!! Many weddings lose sight of how much things can add up. You may have an idea of how much your wedding will cost, or how much things have added up to but with out really tracking all the expenses and budgeting, you may find yourself purchasing items that were not necessary or getting a vendor at a higher price because you didn't realize what you should have budgeted for it.
OK, 6 ways to save! Consider hiring an event planner. It may seem like it is out of your budget but, we are here to make sure that you DO stick to your budget and offer discounts when using our preferred vendors, saving you money right from the start.
One thing you can be sure of for your wedding day is that it will be absolutely wonderful and one of the very best days of your lives, so enjoy every moment!
XOXO,
Aelicia & Rachael
