After 650 weddings we can tell you exactly which parts of a budget guests remember, and which they forget before dessert. The good news: the memorable list is short.
Spend here
- Food and drink. Guests forgive almost anything except being hungry. A generous menu and a bar that never runs out matter more than the chairs they sit on.
- Photography. It is the only thing you keep. Book the best photographer you can afford before you book flowers.
- Music. A good band or DJ decides whether people dance or drift home at ten.
Save here
- Favors — most are left on the table
- Printed programs — a single welcome sign does the job
- Large floral installations in rooms guests only pass through
Put the money where guests spend the most time: at the table and on the dance floor.
Every couple is different, so we always start with one question: what do you want people to say on the drive home?
