Here’s a blog with lots of questions to help you factor bits you may not have thought of yet.


1.     Not Your Average Day! 

Avoid the 26 hot wedding Saturdays; May through October, when everything cost more. Book one location for your ceremony and reception. You won’t have to pay multiple site fees, plus there’s no need for transportation between each one. Here’s all the info you need to get started with over a hundred venues. Friday and Sunday weddings afford more flexibility in options and pricing with all vendors & venues. Consider a Spring or Winter wedding for a more unique and romantic alternative.



2.     And the Crowd Goes Wild…

Have an adorable token cake for photos and cutting and do a delicious dessert instead. Guests love getting up & mingling or taking a dance break. And nothing (outside the bride’s glow) elicits more happy guests than a do it yourself Ice Cream Sunday Bar, Fresh Made Oh-no-you-dough-not Donut Station or a Cigarette Girl Tray coming by with Hot Fresh Spanish Style Churros with warm chocolate dips! Here’s our Sips & Sweets menu for more fun ideas that can save you considerably more than you realize.



3.    Drink (not so far) up!

Based on your guest count & decisions we give you an easy shopping list. Cut bubbly out of your budget; let guests toast with what’s called “glass-in-hand”. Additionally going with a scrumptious Specialty Cocktail or two speeds up the bar service tremendously & saves you lots of money on alcohol and additionally needed bartenders.



4.    End it while you still have that after-ceremony glow  

Time is of the essence. Schedule a three-hour event instead of a five-hour one. People will still have a beautiful time, end the formal affair on a high note and let the revelers carry on at a trendy nearby bar or club.


5.    Who are those people?    

Prune your guest list. Since so many wedding elements are charged on a per-person basis, aiming for fewer can save you big.
