Trying to create the perfect wedding can cost you a lot of cash. Are you asking yourself how can I save money on my wedding? Well there are many ways to do it. You just need a few good ideas to get you started.

1. Choose your wedding date carefully. There are a lot of options here. Picking a Friday or Sunday instead of a Saturday can get you a discount. Or go with a daytime wedding instead of night. Schedule around a holiday and use a church already decorated for the season that way the flowers for the ceremony are free. But remember to be careful of February since Valentine's Day makes the cost of flowers skyrocket.

2. Another way for big savings is to get creative with you centerpieces. Have individual cakes for each table. Do not mention to the caterer that it is for a wedding since anything with the word wedding attached to it automatically raises prices. This way you will not have to pay the high prices of a wedding cake or centerpieces.

3. If you have a large guest list have a small ceremony for close friends and family and then have an informal reception another day. You can even have a potluck style party. Instead of paying catering costs it will be free!

4. Remember location, location, location. The world is your oyster! Let nature be your decoration. Use your back yard or that of a friend, a forest reserve or even a national or local park. Or if you do not think outdoors is ideal there are places with all-inclusive packages that include the marriage ceremony, reception and even honeymoon. Just shop around for the best deal.

5. Postage looks like a small cost but it adds up. Instead of RSVP cards use an online RSVP site and an RSVP phone number for those without internet connection. This saves a lot of time and money. This also goes great with making your own invitations.

These are just a few ways to help you save. Your wedding day can be a big hit without having to let your wallet take a big hit. Just have fun with it and be creative.
