Should you consider doing it yourself, here are a few tips I can offer to consider this option. There is a lot of prep work in putting your big day together. It's not just the time or commitment. It's also the arranging, If you are in an area where you have local "Mom & Pop" Floral shops and/or Farmers market and you are going to use particular flowers in high quantity , you may want to contact the owners about purchasing them directly.
By now, you've heard that the number one way of saving money on your wedding day. The area you have complete control over it is to keep the guest list to a minimum. Really think it through before you decide DIY, It saves you a lot of money and time. Think carefully of the stress and arranging non-stop when you should be relaxing, now is not the time to be stressed. Most couples want to share their wedding day with their closest friends, family and relatives.
Many times after speaking with married couples, who happily describe their wedding day. I hear if they were to "do it again." They would simplify their wedding and invite less people so they can spend more with those that mean the most to them. In fact one bride recalled that she barely remembers enjoying the reception's festivities because she was so tired. All she and her husband did was to go around to each table greeting guests.
I'm a firm believer that if the two of you footing the cost of the reception, then the decision is yours. D.I.Y's are always considered by most couples who want to save. Sometimes a penny saved is five penny's lost. Your engagement is the start of the beginning of your days as Husband and Wife. Including the expertise of a wedding planner ensures you to have a memorable experience for the two of you , your family and loved ones who are sharing in this experience with you.
