Wedding Tips- Day 3

Expanding on CAKE and the (3) important thing

So cake, after every single wedding their is more cake then one can handle, most reasons because the people who cut the cake actually cut it 1/3 or 1/4 of the size of an actual piece. And lets just face it people don't want a lot of cake any more. We are all on this constant diet that we can't enjoy more than one piece of cake. 80% of the weddings have enough cake to feed an entire church on Sunday. Most people just have to give it away. So word from someone who has seen a lot of wedding and ate my fair share of cake, get a smaller cake than a bigger one. Show the staff how big you want the pieces and it will be great and 100$ cheaper. ;)

The 3 Important Things

Every bride should have her top three. What she really wants and will bend the budget for.

Could be the Photographer, Dress, DJ
Could be the ceremony site, decorations, food

What ever these 3 are, you should have your say. You can control these 3 things, let others worry about flowers or the videographer.

About figuring out the budget of the three things think of this:
-How many times are you going to get married
-What areas could I save on to get these three things
-Remember not all the people you invite to your wedding will you remember in 5 years
- See if you can borrow some items to make the items cheaper. For Example: dress skirt, veil, tiara, fake flowers instead of real, buying more itunes and being your own DJ or handing your friend a video camera.

On any budget you can make an awesome wedding
