How to Avoid Higher Wedding Industry Costs: Spend Less on the Venue, More on the Memories!
CNN recently published an article on November 9, 2025 about insights on wedding industry budgets. The article titled "Say ‘I do’ to higher costs: How tariffs could impact wedding budgets" written by Vanessa Yurkevich describes the raised costs across wedding planning sectors related to import tariffs on wedding goods. As vendors absorb increased costs, couples may find their wedding budgets need to expand to accommodate these changes or cut back on their dream wedding experience.
