All couples ask the questions, what should and what shouldn’t you spend money on? The wedding budget is where most of the strife of wedding planning comes into play so it’s important to know what’s important to you in order to know where to spend and save.

Hiring a Wedding Planner
For the sake of your sanity, not only on the wedding day but also leading up to it, splurge on a wedding planner! Leave your big day in the hands of a professional to ensure everything runs smoothly.
A Band
There’s nothing quite like the atmosphere a band provides. Settle the debate between DJ and band and splurge on a group like the Gold Coast All Stars who will keep everyone on the dance floor!
Videography
Some couples choose to forgo the option of a videographer because it can mean an expense that’s equally as costly as a photographer, or maybe even more. However, having footage, not only stills, of your vows, your joy, your interactions and celebration, is definitely worth it.

Personalized Details
Invest in personalized cocktail napkins, stir sticks or coasters! Details like this will make your wedding standout and make for great keepsakes for you and your guests!
Your Guests
If it’s extremely important for you to have certain people at your wedding, don’t sacrifice them for the sake of saving on an extra plate. Make the people you want there a priority by splurging on a bigger guest list.
