And every cost also multiplies by 400% if you put the word “wedding” in front of it.
In some cases, you can get around that by just not mentioning the whole ‘wedding’ thing.
And the ring is one of those cases. Just go to the jewelry store, pick one out, and never mention what it’s for. No reason for any price surcharges – a ring is a ring.
In other cases, though, you really shouldn’t take such shortcuts. That is, if you’re particular about how you want your wedding to go.
Take the florist for example. For a regular (regular price) order, if you’ve ordered 100 yellow roses for the table settings, but they’re out of yellow roses, they’ll just substitute in 100 white roses instead and call it a day.
But if you’re particular about ‘your special day’ being perfect and you must have the yellow roses, that’s when the florist needs to know that it’s for a wedding, specifically. And no matter what happens, they’ll do their damnedest to make sure you get the yellow roses you ordered, no substitutions. And that extra mile of effort is what the 400% price surcharge is for.
In other cases, though, you really shouldn’t take such shortcuts. That is, if you’re particular about how you want your wedding to go.
Photographers is the classic example of where you don’t want to cut corners. Even if you cheap out on rings, you can always buy different rings later on. You only get one day to get the photos you want.
