How To Save Money When Planning A Wedding

How To Save Money When Planning A Wedding, this article will discuss four ways to save money, thus relieving stress as you plan your special day. Nobody could question the importance of a wedding in any couple’s life. But with the global crisis that the world is experiencing, the last thing brides need is added stress over planning the wedding. 

1) The wedding attire—specifically the bride’s gown, the groom’s tux, and the attire of everybody in the bridal party can cause tremendous anxiety. The future couple should always keep their budget in mind and use it to prevent overspending. Start shopping early, allowing you the opportunity to find deals that fit your budget, taste, style, and preference. Sticking to the budget will alleviate any temptation to feast your eyes on super elegant gowns or suits that could blow up the budget. While the bridal party pays for their attire, you should choose a budget-friendly option not to overextend your bridal party.  

2) When selecting a venue, consider choosing one that is not too far from the Reception. It is a good idea to have both the Ceremony and Reception at the same venue to save on cost, not to mention it will be easy for the guests. 

3) Consider a cocktail reception, a morning wedding, or a brunch reception instead of the sit-down Reception. Also, consider having your wedding on a weekday such as Thursday or Friday.

4) Souvenirs, as memorable and beautiful as souvenirs are, its an excellent way to say thank you – instead of giving a souvenir, ask your guests to donate to your favorite charity.

In conclusion, you must decide which element of the wedding is most important to you both as a couple. Remember to stick to your budget and vision- don’t do it alone; Ask for help. You can remove many elements from the wedding or choose a cost-effective option. Start planning early, as this will allow you to take advantage of cost-saving opportunities. Do your due diligence, vet each vendor, get your agreement in writing, never pay using cash, and use a credit card as this creates a paper trail.
