The idea of beginning your wedding planning can be both exciting and a little daunting all at the same time. While planning each detail to perfection, you also will also be attempting to stay within you and your partner’s wedding budget.
There are some easy ways you can save on your wedding budget without sacrificing on the finer details. This is your wedding day to share with that special someone, and should be a day for both of you to remember forever. Here are some tips on saving on your wedding budget.
Guest List
Double check your guest list. Maybe that old friends you haven’t spoken too in a while doesn’t need an invite. Also, don’t let anyone pressure you into inviting guests that either of you barely know or giving them a plus one. And, just because someone invited you to their wedding, it doesn’t mean you need to invite them to yours.
Winter Wedding
The overall cost of a wedding during the winter months can be considerably less than one during the rest of the year. Many wedding venues will offer great discounts and special offers so make sure you check these before picking the date! Also, Saturday is the most expensive day of the week to have a wedding. Planning a midweek wedding will cost a lot less but is not always an option because people have work and other responsibilities.
Dessert
Instead of forking out a lot of money on an expensive cake, why not ask your bridal party to give a helping hand. Asking everyone to make a dessert could be a great way of accommodating guests with special dietary requirements.Imagine the delicious variety you are your guests will enjoy. You can still have the cake cutting ceremony if you wish. Just choose your favourite one and use that!
