Expert Advice from wedding guru, Sharon Naylor
Question:
Should I begin planning although we don't have our entire budget together?
Answer:
First, make your priority list to see where the biggest chunks of your budget will go. I don't know your wedding date, so I'm not sure of how much time you have...but essentials such as the locations and wedding date should be set as early as possible. Your guest list should be top-priority task as well...so you can find locations that will hold everyone comfortably. Start working on your top priority items like booking sites and vendors, and then as you continue to work on your budget, you'll know what you have to spend on invitations, flowers, favors and other items that are lower on your priority list later. You may find that your budget is spent on your sites, vendors and gowns, so then you need my book 1001 WAYS TO SAVE MONEY AND STILL HAVE A DAZZLING WEDDING and free classes at the craft shop to DIY a few things, saving lots of money!
