Wedding planning has gotten expensive — and honestly, a lot of couples are feeling it.
Between venue fees, food, florals, photography, attire, décor, and all the little things that add up fast, it can feel like having a beautiful wedding means taking on a budget that simply does not make sense right now.
That’s why Haiku created our Recession Wedding Package.
This package is for couples who still want a meaningful, beautiful wedding day in the gardens, but are looking for a more thoughtful and budget-conscious way to make it happen.
It is ideal for couples who are open to a more simplified wedding day, a smaller guest count, and select Thursday or Friday dates. You still get the beauty of Haiku, the garden setting, the ceremony space, and the atmosphere — without building out a full-scale wedding that feels financially overwhelming.
This is for the couple who is saying:
“We want something beautiful.”
“We want it to feel special.”
“We want to celebrate with the people who matter most.”
“But we also want to be wise with our money.”
You do not have to skip the wedding, settle for something that does not feel like you, or take on more than you’re comfortable with just to have a meaningful day.
If you’re looking for a more affordable way to get married in Asheville, message us and ask about Haiku’s Recession Wedding Package.
