Of course its up to you, but in the long run photos are the most vivid reminder of your day. I wouldnt cut out a photographer completely unless I knew I would get great shots from friends/family. The largest expese is usually your reception site and there are lots of things you can do to keep cost down there. Good Luck

I guess it's time to figure out what's more important to YOU. You can definitely cut corners with the wedding, but don't do it in a way that makes you unsatisfied with the results. I had the same dilema, but I decided that we could stay where I live right now so that we can have the type of wedding we want. A few months or so after the wedding, we'll start looking to get a new place. I figured that throughout my marriage I will have lots of opportunity to buy a home, etc., but the wedding is pretty much a one shot deal. That's just me.

I love finding ways to help save money planning a wedding. If you want some help email me at [email protected] I got married 9/15/01 Also cutting the guest list is the best way to keep costs down. But ofcourse that is not always easy. Hope I can be of some help to you. --Stefani

There are some ways to cut the cost of the wedding but first you need to prioritize what is most important to you. We are also trying to stay within a budget and I decided to skip the limos, favors and am borrowing my dress from a friend (it is gorgeous!) I think the photos are something you will have long after the actually wedding is over and I wouldn't want to regret not having them someday. If you are still undecided about this try impactimagingonline.com This is the photograhper we are using and getting a package from him that is only @$1000. Ultimately, you both need to decide what and what you want & feel you need at your wedding. Best of luck!

forget the dj! make a bunch of mixed cds and just play those. i' ve seen it and it works. don't skip the pix. it'sall you'll have to remember. don't worry about the albums. do that next year when you have money saved. go to burtons for your flowers - or depending on your season - get a bunch of potted plants for the centerpieces. there are TONS of ways! but you need the memories to show your children!Welcome New Vendors
