From wedding consultants to limousine drivers to photographers to videographers, there are a slew of vendors in the marketplace offering their services to you. Finding, selecting, and working with the right ones can be a tedious process. Use the following information to make that process easier.
Limousines. A stretch Humvee. A Bentley. A Rolls Royce. All cost a pretty penny when you book them for your wedding. You may have dreams of arriving for your ceremony in a classic car – or in a horse and carriage. But the price….it can be quite overwhelming. Here, you’ll find out how you can book these dream rides for less, using some smart tips, or create another plan that offers you something far more personalized.
One of the most common questions about wedding budgets and etiquette is the going rate for tipping experts. It’s a must to tip your experts well, since they play such a big part of your day’s success. The following amounts are merely guiding suggestions; you’re free to give more to professionals who exceeded your expectations and really made your day special. Amounts vary by region, so be aware that these are the going rates in the northeast.
The national average amount spent on photography and videography is close to $3,500. Depending on where you live, that number may be shockingly high or laughingly low, but the fact remains – wedding photography and videography can be very expensive. After all, this is one very important day, and you’ll need great experts to capture the essence of every moment – large and small. As photo experts tell me, “This is the one piece of your wedding that gets more valuable over time.”
When you meet with your floral designer, there is a lot of information you’ll need to share, beyond photos of bouquets that you adore, in order for him or her to help create your perfect wedding-day pieces. The flowers, in any form whether it be a bouquet or a centerpiece, have to complement what’s around them, as well as fit the style of your wedding as a whole. A good floral designer will want as much detail as possible in order to create the perfect pieces for you.
