These happy months of wedding planning can easily get you over stressed. Perhaps the most common stress producer is money. While you want to have the grand affair you've dreamt of, you don't want to pay more than necessary. Here are some tips to help assure you of getting the best values on the products and services you will need.
Local merchants and service providers usually offer the best options, services and prices. And you'll be confident if problems arise, that they will look out for your best interests. Impersonal warehouses, or strangers who promise mail-order bargains will not be around to take care of you. When you trust your wedding to a local independent business, the owner will take your satisfaction personally.
Let merchants know they are talking to an educated woman who will not be fooled easily, or tricked by hidden costs. Talk to friends, read books and magazines. Learn terminology. Control your purchases by knowing what you need and budgeting before shopping.
In the excitement, it's easy to overlook boring paperwork. Many brides have shed tears of regret because they didn't understand about deposits, cancellations or responsibilities. Look for:
- Dates and times
- Details about your ordered items
- Itemized list of goods and services
- Delivery time schedule
- Deposit requirements
- Payments schedule
- Cancellation policies
- Last date to make changes
- Name of person taking care of you
Their job is to help you look good on your wedding day. If they are not truly interested in you when you're shopping, how much effort will they put into your actual wedding day?
Once you and your family have set your budget,
avoid the distraction of elaborate purchases just to impress others.
Your true friends and family come to your wedding to rejoice with you
purely because they love you.
