Upping the Price of “I Do”

February 23, 2009 at 5:17 pm

According to The Wedding Report (www.theweddingreport.com), money spent on ceremony locations has increased 108% from 2007 to 2008.  This is a significant percentage, particularly in the current economic times.

At a time when budgets for other wedding aspects are being cut, is the need for a one of a kind “I do” experience growing stronger?   Are the stresses of limiting a guest list and debating an open bar being replaced by an exclusive nuptial dream in an environment that takes away the stress?

If you are a venue or vendor that provides products or services during a wedding ceremony, this may be a perfect time to re-examine what you offer.   What are the current needs of your couples and how can you best meet their needs effectively and uniquely?  A slight change in your current paradigm may mean the difference in increasing your percentage as well.
