Cheap wedding planning – can you plan a cheap wedding, or is any wedding an expensive ordeal? The fact is that you can plan a cheap wedding that will not be inferior to an expensive one. If you and your partner have been living together for many years or if you simply have a small budget – a cheap wedding is a way to go.
A list of the things to save on with cheap wedding planning, include:
1. Have your wedding in your backyard.
If you have your wedding at any kind of a restaurant, whether it's a large posh place or a small casual one, you will have to "pay the hidden fees" to that restaurant, including a portion of their rent, a portion of their employees 'salary, and so on. If you choose to have your wedding in your own backyard, you'll be able to avoid all these extras.
2. Invite only close family and friends.
The fact is that sometimes there are so many people invited to a wedding, that the bride or the groom might not even know some of them. A wedding is a day for you and your partner. If you simply "weed out" unnecessary names from your guest list, you'll be able to achieve both – to save money and to be surrounded only by the people you really want at your wedding.
3. Make your invitations on your own computer and print them out, instead of purchasing paper invites.
Invitations are commercial merchandise, which means that they are marked up. Furthermore, this merchandise is intended for an "emotional" event and that's why they are marked up even more than many other items. Thus, you can save addition if you make invitations on your own computer and then just print them out.
4. Have a simple menu for your party.
You can organize something tasty but very simple for your wedding. The selection of courses for your wedding does not have to be exotic and expensive. You can have some common meals, like salads, sausages and potatoes etc.
5. Find a cheap wedding dress.
You can find a cheap dress online, at a local consignment shop, or on a sale rack at your favorite department store. Your wedding dress will serve you for just one day, and then it does not have to be brand new or expensive. Second-hand wedding dresses are generally not worn out and look like new.
Those are just 5 things to consider, and any of them will help you save money with your cheap wedding planning. A wedding does not have to be expensive, and a homey wedding with a special touch will also make everyone feel great, including you and your guests.
