We inevitably want to make hard things in life a bit easier. A wedding is one of the most complicated things to plan. Thinking about the process can be sufficient to overwhelm. The following wedding advice will help make the process easier.
You can get a better rate on almost any venue by booking during an off period. This would be anytime other that May through September. At this time, it will be more costly to book a venue for your wedding. If you want to book your wedding at those times, make sure you are booking far enough in advance so you get a great deal.
You will need to make a choice about how much alcohol you want to pay for, and which type of serving will be most cost efficient. Having an open bar may cost a lot, especially if it is available throughout the entire day. Ask the venue you’ve chosen for the reception which options they have available to you, and what the cost would be for each.
If you’re doing your own catering, Costco is a place that can save you a lot on wedding food. When you shop this way, you can buy your food cheaper than at regular retailers. It is acceptable to ask others to assist with these costs in lieu of gifts if finances are tight and you do not want to run out of food at the reception.
Once you know who all is going to give a speech at your wedding, hold a rehearsal for everyone so you can censor out inappropriate material. Remember that your guests will include people across a wide range of ages, and a joke that younger generations find amusing might be offensive to older guests.
