Planning a wedding on a budget in 2017

Diane Normile, wedding coordinator at Liverpool Marriott Hotel

Diane Normile, wedding coordinator at Liverpool Marriott Hotel, has more than 15 years’ experience in the industry and has managed more than 500 weddings. Here, she predicts trends for 2017 and offers her top tips for planning the perfect big day.

“The planning stage of a wedding has shifted from a typical two years in advance of the big day to as little as two months, and there are an increasingly number of couples who would rather opt for a low-key, intimate wedding with only their immediate family and friends. These days, people simply have other financial priorities, so there’s been a shift towards more bespoke ceremonies that are easier on the budget.
