Many of the couples I meet with, to some degree or another, have been affected by the ongoing economic turbulence however; preserving your wedding memories does not have to be an afterthought because of budgetary constraints.
You can have a wedding photographed without spending a fortune. You also do not have to settle for a “weekend warrior” or a less than reputable company to capture your wedding memories. Abacus Wedding Studios (recently voted to the Knot's "Best of" List for 2010 and "Brides Choice" by Wedding Wire) offers everything from hourly coverage to a full day coverage for just about any budget.
If your budget does not allow for a full photography package, my advice is to secure a a studio which offers, just full day coverage with a proof CD or High Resolution DVD of all the images, like Abacus Wedding Studios.
This option offers several benefits, all of which will equal savings.
The benefit of purchasing a package such as this is the cost will be a fraction of a package which will include an album, prints and many of the items you can either purchase at a later time, create on your own or may decide you do not need.
You can always get an album made after your wedding and print images when you would like, the most important thing to remember is that you preserved the memories of your wedding, without breaking the bank.
