With the sky rocketing prices of everything in today's society, it can seem like a crime to spend less than $ 20,000 on your wedding. But what if you could have it for less? Here are a few budget wedding ideas to help you save big, but still have a great wedding day.

1. Save on the cake. You do not need a huge, ornate cake that feed everyone at your reception. Instead, get a smaller version for just you and your spouse to be, and then order sheet cakes to be cut in the back for the rest of the guests. They will still taste as good, and save you money. If you're worried about how it will look, there are now fake cakes you can rent and set your small cake on top of. That way, it looks like the real thing for a fraction of the cost.

2. Do It Yourself. You obviously do not want to make everything by hand, but if you enlist your family and friends, you can save some money by making your own favors, centerpieces, flower arrangements, and even invitations. Most of these things will turn out nicer when done by hand than buying the cheapest version available.

3. Go used. You can actually find second hand wedding dresses for a lot less than retail prices. So do not pay $ 5000 on a dress you wear once. There will be someone else who bought the same dress, wore it once, packed it up, and now wants to get rid of it.

All three of these budget wedding ideas can help you save big on your big day.

As I say, this is your starting point to planning the wedding that you dream of. You need a simple step by step plan from A to Z helping you every step of the way plan the wedding of your dreams – at a price that you can afford.

So how can you learn to do that? You can read these short articles online, but you're likely to not learn enough to REALLY help you. In fact, you might learn just enough to be ripped off! The best thing you can do is look into getting solid advice from someone who's been there.
