| CPAs offer advice on cutting wedding costs |
June is wedding season, and if you’re starting to plan for your own
nuptials, you know that prices can be steep. In fact, the average cost of a
wedding in the United States is around $28,000. However, the Oklahoma Society of
Certified Public Accountants reminds consumers that it is possible to have a
memorable day without going broke.• Avoid the crowds.
June is the
most popular time to schedule a ceremony, which also means it tends to be the
most expensive. Caterers, reception halls and other vendors are much more likely
to offer better pricing — or be willing to negotiate on costs — if you set the
date during the slower months of the year, such as January, March or November.
You can also lower costs by avoiding a Saturday night wedding, which is the
busiest time for receptions, and have the party on a Friday night or Saturday
afternoon.
• Set smart priorities.
