Weddings In Cyprus - Striking Guilt From Your Guest List

By: William Penworthy

How do weddings in Cyprus compare in terms of price compared with more traditional weddings at home? Are weddings in Cyprus only for those with cash to burn, or is it true that they represent a more affordable way to organise your wedding? How can Cyprus weddings ever be cheaper than weddings at home, since they are so far away?

Many couples looking to get married don't give the idea of having a wedding in Cyprus much more than a passing thought - a nod to a childhood fantasy perhaps. Yet the truth is that for many couples it may actually prove to cost very much the same whether a wedding takes place round the corner, or across the water in Cyprus. Indeed, for many couples it has actually proved to be significantly more affordable to have a wedding abroad.

But of course, although it's important to consider the financial aspect of a wedding, it should never be the ultimate deciding factor for the day. A wedding should be about choices - and about making choices for the right reason. Making choices about your wedding purely so that the bank manager will be happy isn't necessarily a good thing. However, where weddings in Cyprus are concerned, you may well be able to indulge yourself in the childhood fantasy, make positive choices for a beautiful and memorable wedding - and still make your bank manager smile!

One of the obvious points regarding the affordability of a wedding in Cyprus is that there are likely to be fewer guests. When you have your wedding round the corner from your own home, there is an expectation that almost everyone you know will be invited to the wedding - and everyone they know will be invited to the reception afterwards! However, this expectation is frequently experience most by the couple getting married, and not always by the potential guests.

Almost every couple who has sat down to create a guest list has experienced the anguish of trying to think of people they don't need to invite, and finding their names slipping on to the bottom of the list in any case. Neighbours, friends, work colleagues, partners of people you met once - the list becomes almost endless, and this can easily cause the cost of your day to spiral.

Even an average wedding these days can end up costing almost £20,000 - but with the guest list cut down to just a few close friends and immediate family members most couples can find that this is more than halved at least. It's a point worth remembering that your wedding is supposed to be a day for you to remember - not necessarily a day for half your home town to remember. Yes, your wedding is important - but it should be more important to you than to those people you haven't even seen in years. This is one of the biggest ways in which you can reduce your wedding bill.

Weddings in Cyprus come with a guilt free way of reducing your guest list. Whilst your neighbour's niece's current boyfriend might well appear to be a necessary addition to your guest list since you bumped into him once at the shop, by having your wedding in Cyprus the natural tendency to see such people as necessary vanishes.

Cyprus has been referred to as Paradise on Earth by many people - and one of the ways in which Cyprus weddings help to ease both the financial burden and the guest list guilt is by removing the perceived obligations. No one except your closest family relatives and friends would expect to be invited to your wedding in Cyprus - and knowing that, you needn't slave over a guest list that looks more like a telephone directory and a budget that looks more like the GNP of a small country.

There is another way in which having weddings in Cyprus can make a big difference to you - not just in terms of budget but in the level of stress likely to be experienced. Forget running like a headless chicken around town trying to organise forty different companies to work together to ensure a seamless day. Because weddings in Cyprus have become so incredibly popular there are many companies and organisations now which have been set up specifically to cater for the growing number of weddings.

By talking with a wedding planner in Cyprus you'll find that almost every aspect of your wedding can be handled by local companies and service providers who are very used to laying on beautiful and memorable weddings and working together to create a day which feels as smooth and easily flowing as a veil. Weddings in Cyprus can not only help your budget go much farther, and your conscience enjoy some time off, but you may even feel as though you'd go through it all over again - although obviously we hope you won't need to!
