Pros and Cons of Planning a Wedding During College

Con: You have no money. Neither do your parents.

Pro: You have a lot of friends who can take the place of professional wedding vendors in areas like photography, hair and make-up, music, etc. to save you a LOT of money, and probably produce the same good quality.

Con:  You have a lot of friends. You want to invite them all to the wedding! That means it's more expensive. 

Pro: You spend all your class time on Pinterest, so you know all the DIY projects you can do to save money.

Con: You’re taking 18 units and working 20 hours a week, so you have no time to do those DIY projects.

Pro: Some of your bridesmaids are at school with you, so they can help you do the DIY projects!

Con: Your bridesmaids are at school with you, so they also have no money, which means you have to get really creative when it comes to bridesmaid dresses and groomsmen suits. 

 

Pro: You’re in college, so you’ve already learned that if you aren’t flexible on what you want, you may as well give up.

Con: Sometimes it's just more appealing to give up.
