After the Engagement Rings
Now that you have chosen your beautiful diamond engagement rings you need to consider the next step. Weddings have become big business with the average cost estimated at £20,000. This is a huge cost which you might like to re-assess in the light of being more environmentally friendly.
Try not to get entangled with small details first and concentrate on the big picture; what type of wedding do you want? Some couples cannot bear the thought of getting married without all their friends and family around them; to others a small quiet wedding is just the thing. The catering for the reception can easily be sourced locally, making the most of seasonal items. If your dream is more exotic, then research your ideal location well in advance and maybe off-set your carbon foot-print in other ways.
Clothing is always an important item and there are many options from hiring, buying new or second-hand, even making your own. Present lists are a wonderful opportunity to reduce waste by ensuring you do not receive duplicate gifts. You can reduce waste further by taking a tip from bygone days and asking that the gifts be wrapped in tea-towels or table napkins instead of wrapping paper.
However you choose to celebrate your day, make sure that you enjoy the planning and choosing each item. At Marlows we are glad to help by providing a wide selection of gold wedding rings and wedding ring sets to fit with your chosen style.
