Introduction
This is probably one of the biggest make or break items
that you are going to come across, you may be fortunate enough to be in a
situation where cost is not important. Sadly for many this may be the biggest
constraint on your plans, you might be surprised to find that there are more
people prepared to help than you first thought.
Years ago for many it was the responsibility of the Brides
parents to foot the bill, this may still be the case in your family. It needs to
be discussed and in many cases you will find that there are more willing parties
than you first thought.
A good place to start is by establishing what is considered
by each party as a reasonable amount to spend on this special day. Don’t
forget that getting married also means living together, which probably means a
mortgage or rent. The Wedding day is just one of many costs to come.
Don’t let this put you off, all you need to do is set a
budget and work to it. It is said that the average Wedding costs £12,000, of
course average means that some are less and others are more.
Having established an approximate figure we recommend that
you do some phoning around to get some idea of the cost of your ideal day.
Please find below a list of the main items that most people spend their money
on, we have left some space for you to add any extra. We have tried to make it
easy by using our shopping mall, which list suppliers for each heading.
