How do you plan an
unforgettable wedding
on a tight budget?

Do-It-for-Less! Weddings: How to Create Your Dream Wedding Without Breaking the Bank provides all the information brides and grooms-to-be need to know to plan their special day and enjoy the event they have always wished for.

I want to help you organize and experience a beautiful wedding that doesn’t break either family’s bank account or leave you in debt for the first ten years of marriage. Do you realize that the national average cost for a wedding in America today is $27,000? That’s enough money to use as a down payment on a house, car, and boat! This number is frightening to me, and it should be to you as well.

Now, don’t misunderstand, if you have tons of money and want trained, white doves cooing Barry Manilow hits for your recessional, it can be arranged. Anything can be arranged. But if you’d like to have the wedding of your dreams and still have money for a fabulous honeymoon, this is the book for you.

Do it for Less! Weddings is for people who like to think outside of the box and do their own thing. We’ll work together to trim your wedding costs and still give you the event of your dreams.
