Look for People You Know to Keep Wedding Costs Down.


Have an Affordable Wedding That Looks Great

If you're like a lot of other brides you might be wanting to have a cheap wedding. Of course you don't want it to look cheap, you want it to be awesome like any bride does. A 2009 survey said the average wedding cost was $28000! Yes, you read that correctly. That's almost a whole years salary for a lot of people. That's a huge down payment on a house. Is it wise to spend so much money? We've kind of been brought up to believe that our weddings must be fairy tale occasions. But it's only one day, right? Isn't the marriage more important than the wedding. I've had coworkers who were paying off the wedding bills long after the wedding was over. So, how do you have that fabulous wedding without breaking the bank? I had a $5000 dollar wedding. That was for everything. Church rental, reception hall, food, custom wedding invitations, wedding dress, everything. So how did I do it? Well, first of I used people I knew to help me. People want to help, don't you want to be involved when your friends get married? People like to feel a part. I also did a lot of comparison shopping and did a lot of the work myself. If you know where to look you can get a lot of greats stuff inexpensively too.  These all things I did, so I hope they help with your cheap wedding plans.
