How to organize your wedding

He’s popped the question. The ring is on your finger.

Now comes the stressful part. You want to throw the

wedding of your dreams, but you’re not Donald Trump’s kid.

What do you do?

Statistics say the average wedding costs $20,000.

Most young girls dream of the fairy tale wedding: long white

gown, 8 bridesmaids, a sit-down dinner, the band everyone

dances to.

Many brides have been dreaming about their wedding

day since childhood. These dreams come with an expensive

price tag and the realization of their fairytale day may be

distant. Although weddings are very costly today, your

dream day can happen. I am going to share some tips to cut

corners and save money without making huge sacrifices.

By taking the time to plan and investigate, you will be

amazed at the amount of money that you save. Would you

arrive at an interview for your dream job without prior

preparation? No, you would not and that is why preparation

and research will make your wedding a success without re-

mortgaging the house!

It's only natural to want the Cinderella fantasy

wedding, complete with ice sculptures, a heavenly cake, and

thousands of guests who've flown in from around the world

to enjoy the accompanying dinner. It's only human to cry at

the bill that this dream can rack up.

Costs can add up quickly. Factor in the meal, the

liquor, the music, the dress, the flowers, the photographer,

the decorations and the dream wedding can seem way out

of your league. But it doesn’t have to be.
