Set your numbers

The worst thing a couple can do is start their marriage off in unnecessary debt. Plan ahead!! Set your wedding day and start saving. Decide what’s most important to you and use the process of elimination to help prioritize.
Whatever number you agree on, stick with it! Trust your instincts and judgment as a couple. Here’s a few suggestions on items we feel are of utmost importance when planing your special day.
the location
This is probably most important as it helps guide the rest of the process. Make sure to ask all event centers if they offer tables, chairs, catering, clean up service and anything else that comes to mind that could make your day flow smoother. This can save you money in the long run to have these things available on site.
the guest list
This can sometimes be the most difficult for the couple. There is no wrong or right, it's simply a matter of preference. Do you want EVERYONE to be at your wedding or just close friends and family in a more intimate setting? Decide as a couple what works best.
The reception
Things to keep in mind when discussing the reception include:
1. LOCATION!!
2. DJ or band
3. One or two cakes (wedding and groom)
4. Open bar, BYOB, cash bar
5. Dinner (buffet, several options, servers,..)
6. Decor (simple cost saving DIY projects or exquisite and elegant at all costs)
7. Flowers (real or fake)
be accountable!!
Decide, Plan, & Stick with It!
