A dream wedding on a budget?
Author: gigi mill
How do you plan a dream wedding without busting your budget or
looking cheap? I am sure there is zillions of advice out there
and by now all you brides to be or wanna be brides must be tired
of hearing it. Well I have to put in my two cents (or two
dollars for that matter seeing how the inflation has hit us all
in the past decade or so).
First of all you have to face the fact that weddings are
expensive and according to one national survey the average cost
of wedding is anywhere between $25,000 to $45,000. Now the
million dollar question you have to ask yourself is that whether
you think this substantial investment is worth the price for the
ceremony that may or may not bind you with your prince charming
till death do us part? If the answer is Absolutely, then lets
get down to earth for a second and be sensible about the whole
thing. I know sensible is boring but it does save you getting
into unnecessary debt for the rest of your natural life.
Now the next step is to ask help from well wishers around you
how in getting your fantasy wedding without spending tens of
thousands of dollars. There are lot of books, magazines, TV
shows and Blogs of course to steer you in the right direction if
your well wishers are too busy with their own lives. After the
initial research and soul searching and provided the wedding is
still "on" by this time go to work.
There are tons of resources for budgeting your dream without
looking cheap and if your head is still in cloud nine and you
cannot deal with the practicality of the situation my advise to
you is get the Wedding Planner, put your budget in fron of the
planner and save your self all the hassle and have a wonderful
wedding, after all "You deserve it".
Now there are some pointers you can give your Planner to show
her who is actually in charge of the show. Some of those
pointers which will elevate you in the eyes of your planner are
1. Selecting Your Wedding Date Now be very pragmatic (I know its
hard at a moment like this)about selecting a wedding date.
Everybody knows that the Peek wedding season is between May and
September. May be April or October wedding would be a good idea.
2. Wedding Location Some Locations that do not specialize in
hosting weddings are a good alternative to Hotel ballrooms and
banquet halls.
3. Style and Size A small guest list is very desirable at this
point and will open doors at lot of less expensive locations
4. Wedding Essentials and Accessories Buy Off Season and again
Buy Off Season You can even buy great designer stuff at
reasonably affordable prices when everybody is making room for
new season inventories
5. Reception and Ceremony Skip on Lavish sit-down dinners, opt
for creative decor, Favors and Gifts
And last but not least Enjoy Your Wedding Day as it is your
special day and it is all about you.

A Short History of the Origins of Wedding Favors |
|
Wedding Favors date back several centuries. Originally, they were only given by the upper classes. The Europeans, especially the Italians and French used to give out "bonbonnieres" to their guests. These were fancy small boxes made of crystal, porcelain, or metal and sometimes decorated with precious stones. They were filled with bonbons or confectionery delicacies which during those times were considered to be a luxury. Since weddings were thought to be a lucky occasion, the gesture of giving wedding favors represented the bride and groom sharing the magical luck with their guests.
Later, the tradition spread to other social classes. Many couples began giving almonds beautifully wrapped in fabric. It was believed that 5 almonds represented fertility, health, wealth, happiness, and longevity. In more modern times, almonds were replaced by "Jordan Almonds" which are candy coated almonds. They now continue to be a very popular traditional wedding favor.
