As the media is full of doom and gloom of the economy figures have shown that the cost of an average wedding is going down significantly. Its times like these that mean that anyone planning a wedding need to be even more careful with their wedding budget.
We are in the fortunate circumstances that despite the economy we are still likely to have lovely wedding, much more than I had ever imagined. Most of this is down to the generosity of my Mother and luckily we are both in good jobs in an industries that are thriving (touch wood). It seems that although people are spending less money on weddings, it is occasions like these that are actually helping the economy.
With unsurity ahead a lot of people don’t want to let go of the money they have, just in case, but a lot of people are seeing the value of being around friends and family and celebrating love. I guess it is a ray of sunshine for a lot of people and for this reason as more people get married it gives the economy just a little bit of a boost.
So what the government should be doing is trying tp get more people to marry, and renew their vows it will lift the mood of the nation and business wil benefit from dress makers, high streets as other guests want something to wear for the occassion, local hotels and accommodation, venues, cake makers, printers… the list is endless, as I am realising.
These occassions can really help boost local communities and celebrities who can afford flash in the pan marriages should be setting the example. Celebrities would be great as they ted to get married again, maybe even twice in one recession. So I put it out to all Big Brother stars, soap stars, X factor, who ever you are go to some TV or Music award meet someone you love right now and do your bit for the country.
