Saving Money on Your WeddingBack to Directory
By Yours Truly
Many couples are paying for the own wedding expenses these days. You don't want to start off your marriage with a big debt from your wedding day. Therefore, you need to create a wedding budget and stick to it.
If you are having a hard time cutting back on wedding costs and getting under budget, here are some tips that might help.
Have a buffet.
Instead of a traditional sit down dinner, have a buffet instead. Not only will your wedding guests be able to choose from a variety of food options, but you will also save money.
Use silk flowers.
Instead of fresh flowers, opt for silk flowers for your decorations and centerpieces. Silk flowers are oftentimes less expensive and you can use them over and over again for years to come. If you'd like, you can still have fresh flowers for the bridal bouquet.
Reduce the guest list.
Your wedding day should be shared with your closest friends and family, not with everyone you've ever met. No one says that you have to have an enormous guest list to have a nice wedding. Pare down your guest list to only include those closest to the bride and groom.
Saving on Wedding favors.
Some couples are giving a charitable donation to their favorite charity in lieu of favors. Even if you do this, you can still give a small, inexpensive favor to each guest. Instead of buying your wedding favors, you can make your own. Purchase candy, mints, Jordan Almonds and other sweets. Package them in little tins, boxes and other packages. At Truly Wedding Favors, you can find a variety of wedding favor packaging supplies that are under a dollar each. If you aren't feeling crafty or don't have a lot of time, Truly Wedding Favors offers premade favors that are inexpensive and elegant. You can choose from a variety of different styles of favors including picture frames, key chains, candles, bookmarks, coasters and much more.
