Things to Consider When Budgeting a Wedding
Budgeting for a wedding can sound stressful at first, but ultimately the best thing you can do is take planning your wedding one step at a time. Each aspect should be carefully considered before making drastic decisions on where to have the wedding, or even down to which flowers to choose that will fit your price range. All of these elements are very important to work through to see what you are able to do, in order to make your Staten Island wedding perfect.
Here are some tips on where to start and what to keep in mind:
1. Budgets are all about balance.
Begin by making a list of all the crucial details, such as the wedding gown, the type of music you would like to have at the event (live or DJ?). Try to rank each element in three different groups. The first group is items of top priority. Anything in the second or third group should be considered, but should not be as costly or take up as much of the budget at group number one.
2. Your credit matters
Take advantage of all the options available to brides and grooms planning a wedding. Sign up for a credit card with a rewards program, go to wedding events to see what discounts or companies you can partner with to make your day extra special and to fit into your budget even better.
3. Let one venue lead you to the next one
Ask the companies you are working with for suggestions. They can help you find other companies to organize your wedding and reception. Your florist or reception venue can refer you to some local businesses that they have either worked with in the past or are known to give top notch customer service. Make sure to mention their name when calling so the owner or associate is aware of the referral. Businesses give out references regularly. Thus, be sure the people you are working with are kept up to speed as well so they can give you the proper service you deserve.
