TheWONDROUSWedding

Couples in the midst of planning a wedding often find themselves

overwhelmed by the cost of such a meaningful yet expen-sive undertaking. The average wedding is as expensive as a new car or a down payment on a new house, so it’s no surprise many couples experience stick-er shock when they first begin to negotiate with vendors.But as shocking as the cost of saying “I do” in front of family and friends can be, there are some tried-and-true ways to drastically reduce that cost without making the big day any less special.

GuestsMany couples save the most money by reduc-ing the number of people they invite to their wedding. Couples who come from large fami-lies may not be able to cut family members from their guest lists without causing a sig-nificant stir, so such men and women can look for other areas to trim. Professional colleagues and old acquaintances who you no longer keep in touch with are unlikely to be offended if they don’t make the cut, and removing them from the guest list can save couples substantial amounts of money.

VenuePerhaps no element of wedding planning is more open to negotiation than the venue

where the reception will take place. Many couples now choose venues that can host both the wedding and the reception, and that can save couples the cost of booking two separate locations and transporting out-of-town guests from one location to another. Venues are typi-cally open to negotiation with regard to the price per person for the reception, and few will not have some wiggle room built into their initial quote. If young children and teenagers will be attending the wedding, negotiate lower rates for their meals, as they won’t be drinking alcohol and therefore won’t cost the venue as much as adult guests.
