Save and Splurge

May 22, 2018

When a couple hires me, I am often asked what should we save on and what should be splurge on? Well, it all depends on what is the most important part of your vision.

Questions to ask:

1. What is your budget? (this is the most important)

2. Do we want a band or a DJ?

3. Open bar or beer and wine?

4. A venue with everything included?

5. A blank canvas venue for you to design?

Start with you budget and pick out the most important elements of your day. If you want a band, perhaps have one signature cocktail and beer and wine.

Want an open bar with craft beer? Work with your florist to use pops of color on the tables instead of flower arrangements on each one.

Want a stunning view of the coast? Put up a tent, and call food trucks for a more casual approach.

Want some more ideas? See my interview on NEWS CENTER Maine.

We would love to help you tell your love story.

Love from ME
Catie
