Consider this, though: Sometimes, if you choose a more costly, beautiful location, you can save a lot of time and money on decor. The bones of the space are already easy on the eyes, so why cover it up with expensive d\u00e9cor?<\/p>\n<p>Next time a bride is looking for an extravagant setting for her wedding, try to find a venue that already reflects her theme! Drop-dead gorgeous backdrops such as a botanical garden or a heritage home need no decorating! Turning a bland white reception hall into a dream wedding is a lot of work. So if it\u2019s possible to skip the decorating, you\u2019ll save a lot of time, money, and resources. That doesn\u2019t mean other aspects of the theme will suffer, though! You can bring out the wedding colors through the linens and flowers instead of figuring out what to do with a floor to ceiling white box.<\/p>\n<p>And if your client\u2019s dream venue is out of their budget? If they\u2019re content with doing away with d\u00e9cor, you can divert that money into your venue fund! Why spend money on a mediocre venue you need to dress up when you can pool both funds to satisfy your client in one fell swoop?<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hack_3_The_Compromise\"><\/span>Hack 3: The Compromise<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Speaking of consulting your clients to divert funds\u2026 when there\u2019s a problem with the budget, find out what your clients want the most. Create a list and have them order the items by importance. This way, you can figure out where you should spend your budget and know where to compromise.<\/p>\n<p>For example, your clients might want the food to shine in the reception. This means spending a big chunk of money on catering a 4-course meal. Then, based on the priorities list, you\u2019ll know where you should be making these cuts. If entertainment isn\u2019t high on their list, you could cut the string quartet and opt for a local DJ instead.<\/p>\n<p>This hack will save you money and frustration with clients who might have trouble communicating. You won\u2019t waste your budget or time on parts of the experience that your client isn\u2019t going to notice.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"448\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.qceventplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/image-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"invitation and rings placed by event planner\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-14406\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/image-1-1.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/image-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hack_4_The_Choices\"><\/span>Hack 4: The Choices<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It might seem like the best planner would give their client every available option and let them choose. However, too many choices lead to indecision and becoming overwhelmed. Some clients shut down completely when faced with too many choices. Once they see hundreds of flowers in different colors, it can be harder and harder to make a decision they won\u2019t feel buyer\u2019s remorse for.<\/p>\n<p>Find out what theme and colors your client want. Use this information to do your own search for the perfect flowers. Then limit the number of choices you offer to a manageable number. When you\u2019ve already done the legwork to eliminate some choices using both the florists\u2019 and your own expertise, you\u2019ll save yourself a headache. If they don\u2019t like any of them, you can always bring out more. But don\u2019t flood them with too many concepts and ideas until their heads explode!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hack_5_The_Kids\"><\/span>Hack 5: The Kids<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Even though they sound like a great idea, kids\u2019 tables are a nightmare. It\u2019s true, they\u2019ll certainly have fun together and give their parents a break. But don\u2019t underestimate what can happen with a group of unsupervised kids! They could cause a raucous, being super loud, throwing food, having disagreements that no one is there to settle, etc.<\/p>\n<p>You can still have your dream kids\u2019 table. Just hire an on-site chaperone! The parents and kids can have a great night because the parents won\u2019t need to be worried, and the kids can be kids. You can also set up a quiet room so that kiddos who need to nap can do so. They\u2019ll have somewhere they can go instead of being stuck on their parent\u2019s lap. Quiet rooms and chaperones mean no cranky kids AND no cranky adults!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"447\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.qceventplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/image-3.jpg\" alt=\"rustic wedding cake with fresh flowers and wood plate\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-14404\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/image-3.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/image-3-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hack_6_The_Cake\"><\/span>Hack 6: The Cake<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Lots of people want a grand cake for their wedding &#8211; multiple layers with tons of frosting and an intricate design.
