Top 10 Ways to Save Money on Your WeddingDon't Serve AlcoholHaving an alcohol free wedding is much more acceptable in this day and age and can save you thousands! If you feel you must have some alcohol save it for the champagne toast and serve punch the rest of the night.5>
Keep Flowers to a MinimumFresh flowers are very costly. Use fabric bunting, ribbons and bows to decorate the church and reception. Use a few fresh or silk flowers as accents. Also consider using potted plants like Boston ferns, Daisies and Mums. These plants cost less for a lot more and can be given as gifts to your guest, eliminating the cost of guest favors.
Don't Get Married in JuneGet married in the early spring or fall. It is more expensive to get married in the summer or winter. Also it is less expensive to get married in the morning or afternoon than in the evening.Cut Your Food CostsSurprisingly it can be less expensive to have your reception at a restaurant then to have it catered at a hall. Having your reception at a restaurant eliminates all the rental costs and the food is often better. If you are paying more then $20.00 Per person Per plate, then your paying too much.
Have an Afternoon Tea and Cake ReceptionThis cuts the cost of food way down and can be done very elegantly. You can still have dancing if you chose and serve hors d'oeuvres if you can fit it into the budget.
Get Your Wedding Dress at David’s Bridal(No I don’t get a kick back) I got my dress there and it only cost $99.00 !!!!
Don’t Have a Band or DJRecord your own music and play that at your reception. For our wedding my husband and I made a chronicle of our courtship with music. It was very meaningful to us and our guest loved it.
Keep it SmallDo you really need to invite your Sister, friends, second cousin to your wedding? Cut your wedding list way down. Only invite the people who really mean something to you. A good rule of thumb is, if you have not seen someone for more then two years don't invite him or her to your wedding.
Do it YourselfDo as much planning and making of your wedding and wedding items as you can on your own. If you have any crafty friends or relatives as them for help making things for your wedding. So Old Aunt Martha is half-blind, but she may be able to make you a stunning headpiece that will save you $300.00!
HaggleVenders expect some dickering on pricing. If you have your heart set on one florist or caterer and their price just won’t fit in your budget, tell them you are considering several places but your would really like then to do your wedding. Ask them if they would come down to X price. (The price that is in your budget.)
