I Do

If you’re planning to take vows in the near future, you’re probably knee-deep in details surrounding the ceremony and reception. There are a million decisions to be made, not the least of which includes choosing a venue, a caterer, a florist, and the most important part…a gown! But there are many budgetary concerns to keep in mind as you plan your big day. Here are a few ways to keep costs under control.  

The Guests: That Facebook friend of yours who you only met once at your cousin’s wedding last year probably doesn’t need to be invited to your big day. Keeping your guest list in check and only inviting close family and friends can not only save you money, but it can also help keep the ceremony and reception more intimate.

Find the Deal: There are a number of retailers out there that are offering great deals on all things wedding. Here are our top five picks:
