3 Key factors impacting your wedding budget

1. Location / Venue

For location, you should consider state, city, metropolitan versus small town/rural setting and different packages offered by your preferred venue options. Some venues offer reduced pricing based on time of year or day of the week.

3. Vendors

Your venue or wedding planner may save you money and headaches on vendors. Often they have a network of skilled vendors and can give you recommendations that will save you time and worry. If choosing vendors not on a preferred vendors list, be sure to vet your vendors thoroughly, get multiple quotes, ask all the questions and read all the reviews.
