By Jonan Williams
Wednesday, February 19th, 2014

BudgetingThe one thing that will set the tone for your wedding more than themes or colors or even the reception hall you choose is how much money you have to spend. Although sitting down and creating a wedding budget might not seem like the most romantic first step in planning the wedding of your dreams, it’s never a good idea to start clipping photos out of bridal magazines or trying on wedding dresses until you know your wedding budget.
