Wedding Mayhem

We all know that getting married these days is going to set you back a fortune. Whether you want a small do or a massive do you are going to end up paying a big fortune. Even if you dont opt for a horse drawn carriage to a castle hotel, the costs soon mount up. This is why a huge amount of people have employed a new trend of instead of receiving wedding presents they would much rather have money given to them.

There are a huge variety of prices involved in getting married in this day and age.
1) Buying the perfect dress and suit
2) Organising and booking reservations
3) Catering
4) Transport
5) Flowers

But this does not stop there, because even after the wedding you have to pay for the honeymoon and anything else that comes along with that, including spending money, eating out and the transport around the destination and too and from the airport.

So I can say that now is the greatest time to look at getting married, as we already know we are in the middle of a huge credit crunch, therefore one sector that will be suffering is the wedding niche. People will definitely be pulling back from getting married at the current time, but I feel that is totally the wrong decision to make, because now in my opinion is the best time to get married.

With companies struggling, everywhere has lowered their rates and you could in fact get married for around 40% cheaper than usual. With the increase of weddings abroad you could also save on getting married in a different country as flights and accommodation have also been dramatically decreased. In fact there are more places to get married than ever before, as lots of hotels and venues that previously did not offer marriage services, have opened their doors to happy couples in order to benefit from additional revenue streams.

So the credit crunch is not all bad, for some people marrying with no costs is a dream come true.
