Wedding Season

A friend was complaining to me that she has received way too many wedding invitations lately. Well, I guess many couples are tying the knot before the start of the New Year because of superstitious belief that next year would not be a good year to get married.

It really is surprising to see that couples continue to get married despite the recession but then life goes on; though weddings are held at a smaller scale to cut cost. The other day, I read that there are couples who would pay for their wedding packages in installments but on the other hand, someone once told me that she only spent $35 to get married ten years ago but I think that's the extreme end already. Surely all brides would like something a little more memorable?

Luckily nowadays couples have so many more choices to keep their wedding within budget. There are discount bridal flowers, for example, where they are able to be priced competitively because they are shipped fresh directly from growers.

Some bridal couples opt for balloon sculptures in place of fresh flowers but no matter how popular balloon sculptures are, without fresh flowers in a wedding banquet, it would still look as if something was missing.
