Lets face it times are not easy right now. People of all walks of life are watching their wallets a little more and many people around the country are playing hot potato with pink slips. And yet, its the season. It is the time of engagement. Girls are walking around all over the us with glitter filled eyes and endless amounts of love in their hearts as their guy offered her the chance to join him on
building a new life. And if you are among the lucky few women who are wandering around with a new piece of arm candy or hand candy Congratulations. This will be a fun yet stressful time as you begin the work to plan your wedding. It is not an easy task to plan probably one of the biggest events you ever have had to date. It will take the help of your friend and family to pull this off with you. In addition i know at first glance you may feel that this downward economy is not exactly in your favor. However i am here to tell you that with the right plan you should be able to get everything you want for your special day and more.
I know many women out there are looking to cut corners on their wedding budget and still get what they really want ( which would be great if they knew what it was) First things first make a list of all of the things you would want if money was not an object. Thats right go crazy write everything down, if you want a dove release and a 15 ft train write it down. Then think about what you want people to say when the leave your wedding. Lastly look over the first two activities and ask yourself does this reflect ME or US...ah there is the trick right there. Your wedding should reflect both of you. It will more than likely take you, your future spouse, family and friends to pull your wedding off. With that being said you want be considerate of everyone.
YOu will have to decide what is most important to the two of you. In your magical evening do you want a DJ or a live band ( or a trusted friend with an I pod). When it comes to your meal do you even want a meal or would cake and drinks be enough, do you want to serve liquor or just beer an wine or nothing. You keep going down the list ...for everything big there is a cheaper option and sometimes the cheaper option works out better.
