Wedding in a Recession
Q: I’m trying to save money on my wedding and I was told that you were the person to ask. Where can I cut costs without looking tacky?
A: Here’s a bit of advice I’ve given previously.
As for some 2008-2009 advice; now is not the time to go into debt over a wedding…not that it ever was a good time.
I know ladies have these pretty princess fantasies but you can still have something nice without breaking the bank. Your wedding is about sharing your vows with the people you love, it shouldn’t be about who you can impress with free alcohol, expensive decorations, and ice sculptures.
If you keep it simple, you can keep it classy. Umm just don’t start charging people at the door because that’s tacky. No ATM machines ok?
I think even without the ressession that people should be looking at a wedding for what it is stands for, not outdoing a friend etc and inviting people that actually don’t mean all that much to you. Keep it small and intimate with just close friend and family and stay away from all the naf tack that seems to be at every wedding these ays.
