Q. I have a budget of $5000, how can I give my soon to be wife, a somewhat lavish wedding?
A. To have a wedding budget of $5000 will require some major planning, friends who can and are willing to help, and most of all, remembering it is the marriage that is most important. First, you must set priorities and expect to make some changes to them during your planning. An hour or two spent with a wedding planner may be your best first investment. Planners can help identify vendors and make suggestions that you may not have considered. Are the rings included in this budget? What about the wedding dress for the bride? Some brides spend more than your budget on the dress alone. Having limited knowledge on where you are with plans, this is as far as I should go at this time. Give me a call, and I’ll be happy to guide you in the planning of your special day. Good luck.
