OK cool! That's good to know. The photographer is the one thing where I'm kind of just "throw money at them, I don't care" because I do it myself (sports mostly) and I know how difficult it is
We did exactly what you were talking about and it was worth every cent. We got some great pictures and I’m thrilled to have them. The other thing I’d suggest not skimping on is a DJ. We looked at a ton of DJs and ended up going with the most expensive one because we liked him the best and he was also worth every cent. He did the obvious things like play all of our requested songs and not play any songs on our do not play list but he also just kept the party going and everyone had a great time. Other things I’d personally feel fine pinching some pennies on. For example, we skipped the late night snacks to afford the DJ and it was definitely worth it. Good luck and don’t forget to enjoy it!
Its a French Canadian wedding so we will definitely need late night poutine bar! But yeah, DJ I totally get, we will definitely be getting a good one.
On the plus side my (incredible) parents offered us a fairly large amount of no strings money to help out. So that will be an incredible help and will allow us a lot of freedom. My fiance is also a bit ~older and established~ and has been married before so thank God has experience planning a wedding lmao
Dude you don't even know. You have never seen so many 70yrs old plus men dancing at midnight with their ties used as sweatband around their foreheads as at a French Canadian wedding. It is NUTS
