This is the time for planning your wedding. It's the day of your dreams and you want everything to be absolutely perfect. Knowing and finding "perfect" is the easy part. Paying for it however, is not. How can you ever match the wedding costs to your budget? Luckily, this article can help you plan a great day without breaking the bank.
If you live in a larger city, consider looking into smaller cities for a location to have your wedding. Venues are more expensive in the large cities. If you have a small city close to where you live, check out what it has to offer. You may find a great venue for a reasonable price just by changing your venue city. Keep your flowers simple to avoid higher prices. If you can get by with just an arrangement of flowers rather than an elaborate piece that is designed by the florist, then you will alleviate one of the greater costs of the flowers. The arrangement is half of the cost.
Try ethnic-themed catering to add some spice to your reception. Your typical chicken and steak dishes are too common, so why not try some other food choices? Variety is essential to a wedding dinner to make it memorable for all the right reasons.
When thinking of what to give your guests as a wedding favor gift, consider who you're inviting. If half your family are recovering alcoholics, then a bottle of wine is probably not a good idea. If they're diabetics, then candy won't work, either. Choose something they're likely to keep as a memento and not throw out when they get home.
Go for your dreams at your wedding! If you've always wanted to be a famous singer, why not sing a song at your reception? Is your dream to be an actress? Put on your own pantomime! This is your wedding, and it's a day where nothing you do will be construed as wrong! Go for it!
Designer candles, jewel-encrusted candelabras, and crystal decor can add up quickly when multiple tables are used for the wedding reception or rehearsal dinner. To save money, purchase large, unscented pillar candles of varying sizes. You can then use adornments and embellishments from bulk craft supply stores, such as stick-on colored crystals or textured, sheer ribbons to tie around each of the pillars.
If you're really worried about guests at your wedding drinking too much, you can only offer a cash bar. When people are forced to pay for their alcohol, they're less likely to drink as much. You could also make the bar cash-only, forcing people to go to an ATM if they run out of money which, when your drunk, isn't easy.
Almost essential to a wedding is a photographer. No wedding is complete without a pictorial representation thereof. Don't you want to save those memories for a lifetime, and be able to years from now look at them and remember all the blissful feelings you had that day? By hiring a photographer you make this possible.
So, you are ready to plan a wedding, but you don't know where to start and stay within your budget. You want everything to be perfect, but not if you have to go bankrupt for it. Hopefully you now feel better able to plan the wedding of your dreams on whatever budget you have. Take the savings and start planning that ultimate honeymoon to complete your lifelong memory.
