Your two hearts will soon beat as one. Assuming, of course, the shock of your wedding expenses doesn’t cause his to stop. Avoid such a crisis with these tips to fit any couple’s spending personality.

The Budget Devotee
Do your own flowers with buds from the Dallas Farmers Market (1010 South Pearl Street; 214-939-2808). With several vendors to choose from, your ideas will bloom big.

The Indulgent Personality
Give in to your sweet cravings with a cake from The Pastry Connection (214-773-9057). Creations like the four-tiered confection with fondant icing and satin ribbons satisfy all the senses.

The Specialty Buyer
Want to one-up those cookie-cutter Dallas brides? Take a trip to Fort Worth and visit Ocone’s (6500 Camp Bowie Boulevard; 817-732-4457). Showstopping gowns (by designers like Watters & Watters and Paula Varsalona) will make you look like one of a kind.

The Excess Lover
Let Johnson Wedding Photography (817-999-5201) capture all your moments with a custom package of color and black-and-white images tailored to suit your economic needs.

The Frugal Shopper
Spending thousands on a frilly white dress? Please. Opt for something simple like a swanky bridal tee or canvas hat from befizzy.com (Kacky & Carl, 2722 Routh Street; 214-295-4486).

The Bargain Hunter
Opt for Papeterie’s digital DIY invitations. Or try the hand-painted versions by artist Lois Blackburne. Granted, they cost a hefty $50-$75 per invite, but when you consider how much Picasso would’ve charged it’s a steal.

The Long-term Investor
Why pay for a one-day cake when a customized topper from youtopthecake.com lasts a lifetime? Just send some information about you and the groom, and they’ll do the rest.

Just remember: You’ve already hit pay dirt.
