Greetings to all from a overwhelmed bride to be attempting to have a wedding in Aruba!

[Christine1111]

Hello to all! I am currently a wreck and it's only the beginning of my planning stage! I have always dreamed of having a wedding in Aruba at The Ren since I have stayed there once before with my fiance and had the time of my life! I have contacted the wedding planner and havent heard back yet . I really want to have my wedding there but am on a tight budget. Does anyone know of any price ranges or have any tips on how to cut my costs. Any advice will be greatly appreciated!!

Hi,

 

You can certaintly cut cost in all areas. First calm down, your wedding will be beautiful and can be done on a budget. I would recommend you read some of the forums here on how to save money and cut costs on your wedding. Aruba is pretty expensive for a wedding so in terms of your budget you might want to pick a more cost effective destination.

 

Bests,

I agree... aruba is very pricey. If you are open to it, I will reconsider the destination.

Welcome  & best of luck planning! I am going with a travel agent and find that to be very helpful!

Best of luck planning.  Since you are on a budget, I suggest trying Moomba beach for your wedding.  Most places charge a crazy amount just for the wedding ceremony, they will set up chairs on the beach at no charge when you have your reception there.
