"Trust is hands down the biggest factor in signing on with a vendor. After interviewing your vendor picks select the vendor you know can be trusted to manage your money, your stress and your big day!"
"Finding a great vendor can be the result of good research and development. Get advice from friends and family advertisements, periodicals, and your local Association of Bridal Consultants."
"Try scheduling your event very early or much later in the day to avoid the need to serve a full menu and opt for an all hors d' oeuvres and dessert menu only."
"An outdoor or holiday wedding can alleviate the need to purchase costly décor by taking advantage of nature or festively embellished ceremony and reception venues."
"Different color schemes fit different times of year. For instance if your wedding is in the fall or winter, consider a darker grey or black tux. In the summer you can opt for a neutral colored suite or even linen slacks are appropriate."
"Use friends and family members to lend a hand instead of hiring an outside professional for everything. This can help you monitor your wedding budget (i.e. assisting with favors, invitations and even floral arrangements)."
