Every bride wants her big day to be nothing less than perfect but these days everything to do with a wedding seems to come with a hefty price tag. But - believe it or not - there are ways you can make cutbacks and really save yourself some money. For example, you could start by choosing some cheap wedding favours. Here's some other ideas of how to do it:-
Make your own wedding cake! Look through cookery books for an traditional Christmas cake or go for a more modern sponge cake. If you are not a great cook, enlist the help of a family friend or aunt who could make it for you as a wedding present. The cake can then be decorated with fresh flowers on the big day to co-ordinate with floral arrangements and button holes.
Combine favours and cake together! Rather than splashing out on a lavish wedding cake, why not buy a fabulous Serenity Wedding Favour Cake that can double up as favours too?
Have an afternoon wedding so that by the time you are ready to eat, it's dinner time! This way you will only have to feed your guests once and can save all that money on an unecessary buffet.
Buy your dress from a dress agency; there are some great ones around these days if you look hard enough.
Why not send out your wedding invites by e-mail? Think of all the savings on stationery and postage!
Ask your guests to give themselves as wedding presents. In every family, there is a great cake baker, flower arranger, chaffeur, DJ or photographer. You've got nothing to lose by asking.
Get married abroad. You'll save so much money if you tie the knot overseas; everything is such better value for money.
Remember to keep a close eye on all expenditure otherwise wedding spending can spiral out of control but you should also try and have a few indulgences; after all, it is your wedding day!
