Cost of Getting Married: Most Important Places to Spend your Money...
We have already created a list of how to save a few dollars on your wedding, but its equally important to know where to splurge on this special day!
There are a few things that stand out among all the different expenses involved with getting married. These are the things we feel will pay off more than others adding to the quality of our wedding day experience.
The wedding expenses we recommend you splurge on are your wedding dress and appearance, the wedding photographer, your wedding officiant and of course whatever is most important to you!
Here are some good places to splurge when planning your wedding:
- Wedding Dress and Appearance.
It is important for you to feel comfortable and confident on your Wedding Day - and there’s no better way to do that then with the perfect outfit, beautiful make up and fantastic hair. We aren’t saying you should purchase the newest most expensive wedding dress ever made - just that you shouldn’t purchase what’s cheapest if it’s not what you want. Same goes for the tuxedo, makeup and accessories.
Hint: You can purchase beautiful designer wedding dresses at Sample Sales or on eBay. If you want a nice dress, and who wouldn't, and money is an issue then consider going used! - Wedding Photographer.
Make sure you will never forget a single detail of Your Big Day, because, as it goes, it will just be a memory the next day.
Your wedding photographs will be there to remind you of the memories and document your wedding day. You should feel comfortable with the person you have chosen to take your wedding pictures, and sure that their creativity will help preserve the memories and capture the essence and beauty of your wedding day experience.

Hint: Shop around for your wedding photographer and always ask to see their portfolio before settling on your photographer. See if you can get a CD of the images so you can cheaply print them off and send them to family members. - Wedding Officiant.
It’s a good idea to make sure that you are completely comfortable with the person that is marrying you. Your marriage ceremony is an intimate moment shared by not just the two of you, but the three of you! You’ll want to be sure that it is someone with whom you feel comfortable.
Hint: Look for someone with a nice appearance and a pleasant speaking voice. Keep in mind they’ll be in your wedding photos or on your wedding video as well as your ceremony. - What’s Most Important To You.
Every body is different - and while a wedding dress may be the most important thing to some brides, others may be more concerned with the music or the food. If it’s worth spending the extra bit of money, then do it - it’s your big day!
