sales will be strong, and know that couples won't cancel their
wedding because of a weak economy.
Press
Release Body: How will the economy affect this year's wedding
season? It may affect everything from when and where ceremonies
are held to what takes place at them, retailers say.
Couples may decide to cut expenses when they tie the knot this
year in smaller ceremonies with fewer frills, just to save a buck
or two.
In slower economic times a few retailers do notice a drop in sales.
People tend to buy fewer expensive things they don't need and
more simple things they really want.
Some retailers feel sales will be strong this year simply because
few couples ever put off their wedding due to finances.
Couples
who want to get married find a way to make it work and rarely
hold off on a wedding because of the economy. When they decide
to get married it is because they really want to. It has been
that way for decades.
When couples get married it's a once in a lifetime event and people
want to celebrate. They need decorations, and ceremonial items
like wedding
money bags, cake server sets and wedding
cake toppers.
Retailers like Photoframesplus.com believe that inexpensive wedding
favors that only cost a dollar are going to be more popular this
year. That is because no one throws a party without giving out
favors. Other decorations and traditional items specific to the
reception like wedding money bags, cake servers and unique and
funny wedding
cake toppers are a necessity in many couples minds. They are
used as keepsakes and express individuality. Imagine looking back
and realizing you have nothing to commemorate such a special day,
because the economy was bad.
Another
tradition promises to be strong. It is strange to think that a
dollar dance would be popular in tough economic times. However,
it has grown over the last few decades and there have been several
downturns since then. Wedding companies like Wedding Star now
sell several different styles of wedding money bags to fill the
growing demand.
It is no wonder that such a simple, inexpensive thing can become
more popular during a recession either out of need or just plain
common sense.
People adjust their conception of value when times are tight,
and find fun in things that costs less. It's easier on the wallet
so that makes it more fun.
A dollar to dance with a beautiful bride in this economy is one
bargain most people simply won't pass up.
