Weddings can be expensive and the wedding industry captilizes on our emotional attachments to the princess fantasy. Little girls spend many years dreaming of their big day. It's easy to spend more than we can afford as we try to satisfy those dreams. But, it is possible to still show up looking like a classic bride, without maxing your (or someone else's)credit cards.
- The first step is really a mindset-be flexible. Any girl who walks down the aisle in a white dress, regardless of fabric, designer wedding dresses or price, is going to be considered a bride. Feeling and looking beautiful is not synonymous with how much you spend. So, break whatever attachment you have to your childhood expectations and enjoy the process of finding a great deal. The hunt can bring a lot of joy. Allow yourself to be surprised by your own innovation.
