Did someone say Budget Wedding?


Read on for your chance to win........

We all know wedding celebrations are special. I have yet to meet a bride that didn't want her wedding to be 'wow!' and have all the elements of making her feel like a princess for the day. So it's not surprising that when the words 'budget wedding' are mentioned there is a sinking feeling that the celebrations are going turn out looking a little bit cheap.

As females we are all conditioned into dreaming about stately country manors, extensive grounds, grand sweeping staircases and all things sparkly when it comes to arranging a wedding day. And all this doesn't quite fit with the word 'budget'. Or does it?

I have been in the business long enough to create some stunning weddings. All of my brides come to me and give me an idea of how much they want to spend. Sometimes almost apologetically if they feel the figure is low in comparison with their expectations. And of course it is if they approach the arrangements without any experience.

Then there are others who are initially defensive, certain that the only way they can achieve their budget goal is by micro managing an army of people who have promised to help out at little or no cost, but are not necessarily experts in the roles they are offering. This often results in a stressed out bride running around at the last minute trying to get everything done while smoothing away all the rough edges. So what's the answer?

Let me give you my definition of a budget wedding. It is a wedding where you have set a maximum level of spend - high or low- to create one of the most memorable and fantastic days of your life. Now you may have noticed that my definition doesn't mention the elements of the day. You see the elements of your day isn't affected by budget. It's affected by the experience and expertise of the people involved. The range of options offered by PAB Events Wedding Clinic encourages each and very bride to be unique regardless of spend. This is why we have spent years getting to know some of the best suppliers around and tailoring products and services that create the 'wow' factor without the 'ouch' factor!
