Top 10 Ways to Pay for your Wedding

For those of you who are trying to figure out how the heck you're going to pay for the fabulous wedding day that you are envisioning in your heads, here is a little article that you may find helpful. http://www.spendonlife.com/blog/financing-your-wedding

When it comes to having a unique day, one that everyone will remember, bring in one or two elements that your guests won't stop talking about. Your guests talking is worth way more than having a wedding that you'll be paying on for years to come.

No matter how or how much you pay for your wedding, allow yourself to enjoy it to the fullest!

Traditionally speaking, wedding invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the wedding.
