Tip: The most frequently asked question I am asked involves "Who Pays for What"?

It is so amazing to me how things have changed over the years since the wedding budget has significantly grown over the years and now the "Sky is the Limit". You can keep going and going...

This will be first in a series. From a traditional standpoint, here are the basic recommendations for the Bride's Family including the Bride, the Mother and the Father of the Bride:

  • Engagement Party
  • Wedding Consultant
  • Bridal Gown, Veil and all Accessories for the Bride
  • Wedding Stationery including Calligraphy, Postage, Programs, Place Cards, Napkins, Favors
  • Groom's Wedding Ring
  • Gifts for Bridesmaids
  • Pre-Wedding Parties and Bridesmaids' Luncheon
  • Photography
  • Videography
  • Bride's medical exam
  • Wedding Guest Book and other Accessories as mentioned above
  • Rental fee for Ceremony Site
  • Flowers
  • Music
  • Wedding Gift for Bridal Couple
  • Reception including rental fees, food, beverages,cake, chair covers, dance floor, decorations, favors (as mentioned above)
  • Transportation for bridal party to ceremony and reception (limo, carriage, vintage, etc.)
  • Own Attire
  • Travel Expenses

I know, you are asking "What is Left?" We will discuss this next time.

Until then, Have Fun and Stay Organized!

Fondly,
