When it comes to planning the wedding of your dreams, thinking about the amount of money you are about to spend can give you nightmares. The average cost of a wedding these days is about $28,000. Compared to $15,000 back in 1990, it is safe to say that times….. They are a changing. Take a deep breath and know that you are in control. Having a beautiful day, your way, does not have to break the bank. Stay cool, stay calm, stay collected, and stay focused… on your budget. On average, this is where the money is going:
Reception 42%
Engagement/Wedding Rings 20%
Honeymoon 12%
Photo/Video 8%
Flowers 7%
Invitations 5%
Cake 3%
Music (Ceremony & Reception) 3%
Ceremony 1%
Transportation 1%
Sometimes less is more. Let Mother Nature and Ocean Isle Beach lend a helping hand when planning your dream wedding. Having the golden sands and shades of blue waves as a backdrop to your perfect day can help minimize the amount of jingle you have to have to toss out on decorations for the ceremony as well as the reception. The combination of your beauty and the beauty of the sea will be enough to keep your guests mesmerized. Take control of your wedding finances. Be smart when making your choices. After all, the day should be about you and your love, not you and your checkbook.
