Wedding Favors - Etiquette to Remember

If you are currently planning a wedding then you undoubtedly have encountered the unwritten but well know "wedding etiquette creed": like "thou shalt not have a formal wedding before 4pm". Admittedly, there are many rules of etiquette that are simply ignored. For example many brides choose to go against the common rule of abstaining from wearing a white gown at your second wedding. Surprisingly there are even rules that should be applied to giving wedding favors. Many of these rules may not be as rigid as others, but have been accepted as common place at most weddings. The wedding favor etiquette addresses whether party souvenirs are necessary, whether keepsakes or other mementos should be given to children and how much should be budgeted for favors.

Although you are not obligated to give wedding reception or ceremony favors, most of your guests have come to expect them. The reason behind wedding gifts is to simply provide a couple with a way to thank their guest for their love and unconditional support. They have become common place and are given at the majority of today's weddings or receptions. If you are including children in your matrimony celebration then it is also proper etiquette to give them a goodie as well. Many couples choose to give children the same favors as the adults. This can only work if the favor is age appropriate. If not, try to find a fun and practical favor to give. Candy is an easy and cost effective gift to give the children attending your wedding reception.

The number one reason couples hesitate when choosing party gifts is because they are concerned about the cost. This is an extremely valid concern when you add up all of the other expenses. Fortunately, if your budget is tight there are many ways to get quality discount favors and you can even make them yourself!

How Do You Save Money On Your Wedding Videographer?

You may think that a wedding videographer is a cost that you could do without and you could end up spending thousands on something that you may only watch a few times. Lots of times will be straight after the wedding , you will take it religiously to all of your friends and family, then it will get packed away. The next time could be when the children want to have a laugh and then again at your tenth wedding anniversary. All that said having a video of your wedding could be one of the most important reminders of your special day, so you need to get it right but not spend a fortune.

The first thing that you need to remember is quality is important. It doesn't matter how cheap the deal is, if it is terrible you will be upset and if the record button was forgotton to be pressed by a well-meaning relative you could be devastated.

Whoever you employ for the services of wedding videographer make sure you see previous work and samples, both edited and raw footage.

The cheapest wedding videographer will be a friend or relative who is willing to do it for free but take into account the above points. Whoever it is check their previous work!

Another cheaper option is to hire a film student, check out your local college and see if there are any students wanting to film your wedding. They may be needing to increase their portfolio and so this is a win-win situation.

Hiring a professional does take away any of the amateur worries you may have with the above suggestions but they can charge a lot.

Shop around and not just in your own town, I have heard of videographers from the otherside of the country being hired as they were the cheapest. And that includes travel and accommodation. In other words if you live in an expensive city try looking at more rural based wedding videographers. Sounds mad but it's true!

The more videographers, hours of filming and level of editing is what will increase the price. Think, when is it important for the filming? Maybe just have the ceremony filmed, stipulate just one videographer and maybe ask for the raw footage. That will minimise your costs and do you or your guests want a videographer filming their best dance moves late in the night? The evening and late night shots always seem to be best on the friend's camera, as you get all of their commentary at the time.

You also want to find a videographer who will give you the rights to your own proofs, otherwise you will get charged for all the copies you need for all of your relatives. Another expense to avoid.

Some videographers and photographers work together and if you hire them both the overall cost will be reduced from individual contracts. This will also mean that they will work together rather than trying to get in each others way. Another stress to avoid!

Follow the above tips and you could be the proud owners of one of the best wedding videos that you will want to keep watching again and again.
