It seems like as soon as you say yes. Here comes family and friends; everyone is giving advice, but no one is thinking of the budget.
Planning a wedding today is not like it used to be. Today's Bride is uniquely different. Brought up in the age of the internet, credit cards as a rite of passage. Nearly two-thirds of students took out student loans to fund their college education. For the first time in decades, couples are delaying marriage altogether because of financial obligations.
Does any of this sound familiar to you and it may seem daunting. Don't fret; as a wedding/event planner I can offer my expertise and guidance from planning weddings with couples just like you. With an average wedding totaling nearly $26,000 in the U.S. in 2011, and with an increase in most couples contributing for their wedding completely on their own. It makes complete sense to begin your engagement, with a heart to heart regarding your budget.
I would recommend each of you to sit and discuss, how much is on the table, now to spend, including any amounts family members may have offered to contribute.
Next on a sheet of paper, I want each of you to put "Must Have" and "Would be nice", then write down anything that comes to mind for each category. Planning a wedding really requires careful balancing of two budgets, Finances and Time. Remember that value is worth more than merely a price.
