Average Cost of Wedding Falls 24%
The average cost of wedding plummeted to $21,814 in 2008. This was a 24% DECREASE from the 2007 wedding cost of $28,704.
All throughout 2008 the wedding industry kept predicting the same thing it had seen for the past two decades…GROWTH. “Wedding prices will keep going up,” they told themselves…and the brides they were trying to deceive. “It’s inflation. We have to keep raising our prices.” And my favorite, “The wedding industry is recession-proof.”
WRONG.
The average wedding cost in 2009 is predicted to DROP another 8%…or more.
Is this a reason for you to get scared? Should you give up and elope because there’s no way you can plan an affordable dream wedding?
Heck, no! Now, more than ever…You’ve got the POWER.
Wedding vendors are scared. They’re scrambling to hang on to their piece of the market…while recession-savvy brides are spending less.
Wedding vendors are dropping their prices to make the sale.
Just last week I learned that one popular wedding venue’s bookings are DOWN with 35 fewer jobs booked than last year. A wedding planner friend of mine reports that venues are calling her up and begging her to send them jobs.
They’re begging.
All you’ve got to do is give a little shove and those wedding vendors will be slashing their prices to get your business. Believe me, it won’t take much. Just hint that you might walk away…and you’ll have them eating out of your hand.

It’s easier than you think. It’s up to YOU to make the most of your wedding dollars to plan the wedding of your dreams.
