I’ve been making over brides for the last 12 years. A lot of brides are overwhelmed planning their wedding and managing a budget at the same time. As an experienced wedding vendor and a former Mother of the Bride I feel like I should stress the importance of a Makeup Artist on the day of your wedding. As with the money that is invested in a photographer you want to make sure you also invest in a professional Makeup Artist. These pictures are your precious possessions! They are the only thing you have left after the day has passed. As a bride you want to make sure you look your best in those pictures. Don’t spend thousands on a photographer and then skimp on a Makeup Artist.
If you need to save money scale back on flowers or decorations. Although you do want to set a mood and personalize your reception, most guests will not remember the table settings but they will remember how beautiful and radiant you looked walking down the aisle.
Some inexpensive wedding ideas:
For a beach wedding use shells, beach glass, sand and/or candles in vases instead of flowers. For an autumn wedding use branches, leaves and gourds. For a summer wedding vases look beautiful filled with fruit.
Print pictures of the bride and groom throughout their lives, and scatter them on the tables. This encourages guests to go from table to table looking at pictures and also helps spark conversation. To make them more cohesive crop them tight and print them in black and white.
Go to etsy.com for custom wedding invitations. They are made by artisans, many local to your area, and offer very competitive pricing.
JCrew now sells wedding dresses! They are elegant and very well priced, many under $500.
