Comparing and Contrasting The Price of Wedding Planner With Price of Website

While personal wedding websites are mostly to give the guests information on the wedding such as the date, time and location, the websites can also include things such as blogs and planning bibliographies in which viewers of the wedding website can interact with the bride. Weddings brought to life from personal wedding websites may lack in creativity and originality as many of them suggest traditional weddings and encourage brides to look at celebrity weddings for inspiration. Most brides see personal wedding website, particularly free ones, as a more cost-efficient way of planning and informing friends and family about their wedding, however, some of these website promote expensive wedding products and ideas as opposed to less expensive and more realistic items. With free or fee-based websites, the user receives their own domain name for the website. It is also important to note that wedding planners are for the purpose of helping the bride while the wedding website caters more for the guests. Most wedding websites are used for both planning purposes and personal pages.

According to White Weddings: Romancing Heterosexuality in Popular Culture, wedding planners typically consist of 15% of the wedding's total cost. The average wedding costs $28,000 and depending on what percent the planner takes they usually make between $2,880 and $4,320 for every wedding they plan. Wedding planners can charge an hourly wage, ranging from $40-$100, depending on which part of the country they conduct their services in. The rate also depends on how much experience the wedding planner has had; those with more experience are paid more than those just starting out.

Famous quotes containing the words comparing, contrasting, price and/or wedding:

    There is no comparing the brutality and cynicism of today’s pop culture with that of forty years ago: from High Noon to Robocop is a long descent.
    Charles Krauthammer (b. 1950)

    Humour is the describing the ludicrous as it is in itself; wit is the exposing it, by comparing or contrasting it with something else. Humour is, as it were, the growth of nature and accident; wit is the product of art and fancy.
    William Hazlitt (1778–1830)

    Thou blind man’s mark, thou fool’s self-chosen snare,
    Fond Fancy’s scum and dregs of scattered thought,
    Band of all evils, cradle of causeless care,
    Thou web of will whose end is never wrought;
    Desire! desire, I have too dearly bought
    With price of mangled mind thy worthless ware;
    Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)

    Reunion after long separation is even better than one’s wedding night.
    Chinese proverb.
