Cupid’s Advice:
Everyone wants a fairytale wedding, but that dream comes with a very expensive price-tag. The ideal wedding usually takes around a year to plan – take your time, and use Cupid’s helpful tips to save money and stay classy!
1. Budget: Figure out how much money you can afford to spend for your big day. You don’t want to start your new life as husband and wife with huge wedding debt.
2. Pick and choose: Decide what factors are most important to you for the wedding (e.g. wedding dress, cake, food), and let other details, like custom linens, take backseat.
3. DIY: Small things that may seem like a big deal can actually be done yourself! There are some great websites that explain how to make bridesmaids bouquets, or where to get the bows and ribbons to decorate the church or venue for half the price.
