You owe it to your wedding guests...

Tuesday, 27 November 2007

We've had our 'responsible heads' on this month, especially as many of the couples we are working with are just starting to plan their weddings for next year and beyond. this means we've had lots of conversations about budgets - how to set them, and more importantly how to keep to them.

So if you find yourself suffering from 'Competitive Wedding Syndrome' and actually saying, "I just want our wedding to be better than everyone else's" here's a thought...

Every guest that comes to your wedding will spend an average of £386 to attend (according to a Credit Action report in October 2007). They've agreed to come because they want to see two people they care about tie the knot (let's assume they're not just coming for the free meal!). Don't you think you owe it to them to ensure you use your personalities rather than your bank balance to make your day one to remember? They'll thank you for it, and you'll be glad you did it when you're celebrating your one month wedding anniversary in style - rather than sobbing over your credit card bill and another conversation that starts, "So remind me why we spent £1,000 on a 10 minute fireworks display and now can't pay the mortgage?"!

Until next time,





Tammy Willson - wedding planner and wedding coordinator
