Congratulations on your engagement! We know you’re going to be a beautiful bride. Now that you’ve made the announcement to your family and friends, it’s time to select a date and start making the preparations necessary to get married in the venue of your choice.

It’s every bride’s dream to have a storybook wedding. But pulling it off requires a budget stretch, which unfortunately, they cannot afford. If this describes your current situation, then you’re in great company. We’ll show you five smart ways to cut on wedding costs and still turn your big day wishes into reality below. 

Knowing when to send wedding invitations is a critical part of planning a wedding. Sending the invitations too early or too late is inconsiderate, not to mention the probability of hurting your guest attendance.

It is essential to stick to a timeline to allow your guests to plan. Timelines also show you have a firm stand on when you need to make other wedding decisions like booking a venue. Here’s how to create a timeline to help you communicate with guests at the right time.

If you want to have outstanding wedding photos, you’ll want to think outside the box. Taking pictures with your bouquet and rings is normal. You’ll want to find some other types of props to use to create a more dynamic image. You and your soon-to-be spouse can discuss which direction you want to take your photos in as you won’t get a chance to have them retaken in that setting.

Among the prettiest and most useful wedding decorations that we sell are paper parasols. They come in a range of colors and styles to fit your theme. They add to the visual aesthetic of your décor easily and serve a purpose by providing shade during sunny outdoor ceremonies and receptions. If you haven’t yet considered using paper parasols, now is the time to do so because they’re easy to acquire and implement into your wedding plans.

An outdoor wedding in the age of COVID-19 isn’t unheard of. In fact, many couples have elected to keep their ceremonies small and postpone their receptions for a later date. That way, there aren’t restrictions on the number of people they invite to celebrate their union with them. If you’re considering doing the same, there are some things that you should know about successfully throwing an outdoor wedding.

As the owner or manager of a company, you know how important it is to create a safe environment for your employees to work in daily. Not only must you consider the physical threats to the business, but you must also think of things from a long-term perspective. Employee turnover costs your company a fortune. When your staff doesn’t feel valued and appreciated, they often look for work elsewhere.

A destination wedding during a pandemic can be hard to pull off. It requires governmental clearance and a great deal of planning to make it successful. Still, in many parts of the world, a mandatory quarantine of 14 days is enforced before travelers can leave their lodging. It may not be feasible for your guests to spend two and a half weeks in a foreign location to attend a wedding

Let’s face it. Weddings can be costly. Couples go into debt, trying to plan the perfect ceremony and reception. By the time they add in honeymoon costs, many are in debt before they say, “I do.”

When planning your wedding, you’ll want to think carefully about who you ask to be part of your ceremony and reception. Your bridal party consists of your closest friends and relatives. They’re the people that have been by your side for a long time and ones that you couldn’t imagine not having stood with you while you say your vows. Giving them a thank you gift for participating in your wedding day celebration is customary. It’s something you’ll enjoy doing because you get to pick out a special gift for each person based on their personality and role in your life
