Guest blog: Wedding decorations

 

 

Determining your wedding decorations can be very time consuming. There is such a vast amount of choices, as well as alternatives for the traditional choices people typically decide between. Before you can even begin trying to figure out which decorations you will choose a budget needs to be set. Your budget will determine a lot about what your options are as well as your limitations.

 

Below is a basic checklist of the most popular decorations people get. However, you are not obligated to get each, nor are you limited to them. (I’d also suggest choosing a color scheme or theme before purchasing any decorations to help ensure they are cohesive.)
