It’s that time of year again, and the sounds of matrimony are ringing through the air — wedding season is upon us! Whether you’re getting married or footing the bill for your kids, the age-old question that comes with every wedding season continues to persist… “How much is all of this going to cost?”
Have no fear, DEXSTA has all the tips and tricks you’ll need so that you’ll be saving money where it counts and prepared for any unexpected costs.
Till Death Do Us Part
Wedding season and paying for your special day shouldn’t add stress to a beautiful moment in time between you and your one to be. They don’t say, “till death do us part” for nothing. From ways to save and lifestyle loans, DEXSTA knows how you can start saving money and avoid any tension popping up over your financial limitations.
It all starts with strategizing:
1. Choosing a Venue
The average cost of booking a wedding venue in the United States is around $14,000. That’s a pretty large number for occupying space and saying your “I do’s.” Consider choosing an off-peak date, skipping the Saturday wedding, or trying a non-traditional venue that fits with your style. Vacation rentals are an excellent place to start!
2. Libations
Whether you’re wearily staring at the average cost of meals per guest or how much the wedding cake is going to cost, there are ways to skirt these expenses. Instead of offering seated, formal dinners, go for the cheaper buffet style or create family-style stations at each table.
Wedding cakes are getting more intricate every wedding season. That doesn’t mean you need to shell out a ton of money to keep up with tradition. We suggest sticking with only two tiers or even going with a store-bought cake that you can dress up yourself.
3. The Wedding Dress
The average cost of a wedding dress isn’t necessarily a small number — but it doesn’t have to break the bank! Avoid shopping at bridal shops if you’re hoping to save money. Instead, check out consignment shops. Used dresses aren’t for everyone, but in this modern day where thrift shopping is “in,” it’s a great way of saving money and loving the way you look.
