<\/p>\nYou have decided to get married, you have a date, and now\u2026You have to crunch the numbers!<\/p>\n
Firstly, it is very important to be clear about budget of your wedding will not be the same as your friends or neighbors. Each wedding is unique and its costs change due to different factors.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s common to think that is a cost that only few people can pay. It\u2019s not true! You have to keep in mind that your wedding planner will get better prices from vendors, and she will always recommend the best professionals based on your tastes and budget. A wedding planner also frees you from the stress to plan a wedding. You can enjoy every moment of planning, and you will always have someone that will be your eyes and your ears, that will solve any unexpected event, and that will always be in contact with all vendors.<\/p>\n
There is much more to tell about the advantages of hiring a wedding planner, but we will talk more in another post.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
After deciding whether to hire or not a wedding planner service, it\u2019s important to estimate\u00a0 the number of guests that will go to your wedding. I suggest to carefully think what kind of wedding you want and if you can pay a wedding with more than 150 guests.<\/p>\n
If you cannot assume such a high cost, it\u2019s always better to reduce the number of guests and make an intimate wedding taking care of every detail.<\/p>\n
After making a provisional guests list, you can make another list where you put what will be essential in your wedding, the important things, and the unnecessary things. In this way you will be\u00a0 clear about what you want to spend more and what you can avoid.<\/p>\n
Something very important to keep in mind are the unexpected event that can appear in the previous months the wedding. So I recommend you to have a small amount saved for these \u201csurprises\u201d.<\/p>\n
To have a control of all expenses, you can prepare an excel table where you write down the costs of your wedding. I usually send an updated table to my customers, with all pending payments and payments made to each vendor.<\/p>\n
Are you ready to calculate the budget of your big day?<\/p>\n
