Here are some ideas from a few professional wedding photographers for saving money without sacrificing the quality of your photographs. * Always hire a professional, but limit their time taking pictures. You only have one chance to get it right, so make sure you engage the services of someone who has experience photographing weddings. You have several options, including a 'ceremony only' package which means the professional would take all the formal pictures of the bride and groom, family and wedding party and the ceremony, but wouldn't stay for the reception. * Choose a photography package instead of purchasing all of the items separately. If there is something you want that isn't included, ask the photographer if you can swap it for something else without increasing the price. * Be careful about choosing the smallest or least expensive photography package. You may end up spending a lot more money after the wedding for all the additional prints you will need to buy separately that are not included in the original package. It may be less expensive to purchase a more comprehensive package up front. Make sure your DJ has a reception planning form. Traditional reception events such as the grand entrance, toast, special dances and the bouquet/garter toss must be carefully coordinated.

If the DJ you're considering doesn't have one, find a DJ who does The First Dance - don't wait forever to do it and don't do it forever. One of the special moments of the reception is the bride and groom's first dance. Having your first dance after the grand entrance, or right after dinner, is a great way to start the party. Don't delay your first dance to visit with your guests.
