Top 10 Ways to Save Money on Your Wedding
By Leah Steenstra
-
Get married in the morning, on a Friday or Sunday
and/or in the winter months.
-
Keep the guest list small.
-
Make your own veil. Most craft stores sell how-to
books and supplies. You can save hundreds of
dollars by making your own.
-
Purchase your wedding gown at a
place other than
a bridal salon.
-
Supply your own alcohol if you’re able too.
-
Consider not having a dinner reception. Opt instead
for a brunch, afternoon tea, cocktail or dessert
party.
-
Use silk flowers. They are always less than fresh
flowers, plus they can be rented!
-
Decorate with more greenery and baby’s breath, and
less flower blooms.
9.
Make your own invitations. There are software
programs available that can help you with this task,
and you can purchase wedding desktop publishing
paper.
Check out local universities for qualified and
inexpensive musicians, photographers, and
videographers. Professors will be able to point you
to the best students in the program.
