Robert asked: Getting married is one of your most important day of our lives. Some people tend to have a budget wedding as to save their money for some practical reasons. What important to know is that a budget wedding does not mean a cheap wedding. It all depends on how smart you plan your budget wedding.
There are many aspects that you can cut cost of your wedding expenditures. However, you should pay attentions on some aspects so that you will not sacrifice the quality of it.
First, Wedding Photography and/or Videography. A professional wedding photography can charge you anywhere between $1000-$3000. You might think that you can just ask your friend or relative to take your wedding pictures. It is a No No. Wedding pictures and videos are the only things that you can see or view to re-live your wedding moments in future. If you really need to cut your budget, try asking around from some photography clubs. There are some members out there who really have a hobby of photography and would not mind to give you lower prices. One good practice is to pay them first to do your pre-wedding picture or video. If you satisfy with the results, you can contract him/her again for you wedding day.
Wedding venue. If you think that you could save money by having your wedding money in your house for free of charge, make sure that your house if conformable enough for guest to gather around. We would like the guest to be comfortable so that they would stay longer. In the end, how could the wedding party be nice when guests are leaving early? Try to find good venue that match your theme. You would find that in some days or time, the price could be lower.
Flowers. Have you asked around how much it will cost you for arranging wedding ceremony flowers? You get shocked when it could cost you above $700 right? Some of the flower vendor could charge you very cheap. But the be careful of vendor that will show you a good sample of flowers, and when it is time for your wedding day, he/she will arrange the flowers with some “not fresh” ones. Well, you can always cut your cost here buy ordering the flowers that are in season. Or, you can have a garden wedding without adding more budgets to flower decorations.
There are other aspects to consider for your budget wedding. Overall, the important thing is to have proper planning for your budget wedding. You can cut cost up to 50% of what you have budgeted.

VYOProductions asked:
Your wedding budget doesn’t mean forsaking a quality video. By the time many brides and grooms start shopping for a professional wedding videographer they find their budget stretched to the limit. Let’s face it, by this time you have put money down on both your wedding venues for ceremony and reception, purchased your diamond bridal rings, bought your wedding cake, gave money to your florist for your floral arrangements and bouquet, paid for your wedding dress and wedding veil, rented your tuxedos, put deposits down on your caterer, booked a DJ and limousine, employed a wedding coordinator and … need I go on? With Video Your Own Wedding training DVD you will have a quality video production from any camcorder whether mini DV, HD, Mini DVD, Hard Drive or even VHS camcorder. Just add the cameraman.

sitzngiggles asked: So we’re getting married this fall and so far we’ve managed to obtain a romantic elegant ceremony on a tight budget. My question is, comparing the cost of a makeup artist to new wedding day makeup and the stress of doing it myself, should I be a diva and have someone else do it or spend the money somewhere else?
