1. Careful planning. Preparing for the wedding - the process is very troublesome, because you need to take into account every little thing and solve a lot of pressing issues. The budget issue is also acute, because not every couple dreams of a wedding for a hundred guests, which will require huge time and financial costs.
Be that as it may, make an estimate of how much you are prepared to devote to a particular stage of preparation, even if the budget ultimately differs slightly, the difference will not be catastrophic. After that, you can already start looking for outfits, rent a car or a banquet hall, because you have set a limit and have to invest in it. If you want to contact the coordinator or the agency, immediately discuss the financial issue, so you do not get into a mess.
2. Seasons of weddings and holidays eve. The peak of the popularity of weddings falls on the summer months, this fact must also be taken into account when preparing for the holiday. If you are not in a hurry, it may be worthwhile to consider an alternative option and plan your marriage from October to April. During this period, most agencies and restaurants reduce prices, and even kilometer-long queues at the Wedding Palaces can be avoided. Even winter weddings have their own charm and, if the bride is not afraid of the cold, she will get an incredible triumph, a real winter fairy tale. If your wedding will take place on the eve or during the holidays - this is an opportunity to save on indoor decor: many cafes and restaurants use themed decoration, which may even become the basis for a stylized wedding.
3. Choosing an institution. Of course, the most expensive restaurant in the city is fashionable and prestigious, but is it worth taking the lead from society and incurring impressive costs if you can choose a cozy cafe for a smaller amount? In addition, you can consider alternatives where you do not have to pay expensive rentals: to celebrate the wedding in the country, with relatives in a country house, organize an on-site ceremony, or restrict yourself to a modest family evening. Even a modest wedding can be held creatively and interestingly, the main thing is to create a cozy atmosphere and invite the most expensive people.
4. Buying clothes for the bride and groom. To meet this wonderful day in a dress from famous designers many dream, but judge sensibly, are you ready to pay a tidy sum for them? You can buy a dream dress in other ways: first of all, rent. In the wedding salonYou can choose a gorgeous wedding dress, and after the celebration you will not have to worry about where to put it. You can purchase a dress from one of your friends or friends - you can also evaluate how it looks by looking at the photos. Look at last year's collections: as a rule, such outfits are cheaper, and the beauty is not inferior to the dresses of this year. By the same scheme, you can save on the suit of the groom: you can choose a neutral color, beautiful fabric and sew it to order. A classic suit is a win-win, as a man can wear it after the wedding.
5. Rings. The main attribute is rings, no one calls you to save on this too, but it’s quite possible to temporarily abandon the product with a large diamond in favor of the classic rim. The modest ring can be changed on any wedding anniversary, but on the day of the celebration you will not incur colossal expenses. If you want something individual, contact a jeweler, order an engraving or pair of rings - inexpensively, but exclusively.
6. Decor and attributes. If time allows, visit the shops of your city: out of season, many salons offer newlyweds discounts on decorative elements. Also, invitation cards, cards, posters, books of wishes can be made independently. There are hundreds of ideas and video tutorials on the global network on how to decorate a hall on their own . Carefully consider the theme of the wedding and repel it. To create beautiful accessories will take time, so proceed to work in advance, you may need the help of friends and acquaintances. By the way, wedding glasses can also be decorated independently with various laces, feathers, acrylic painting, and so on - everything depends on your preferences and crafts. It is easiest to decorate the hall with balloons and flying fabrics with contrast bows.
7. Floristics. The bride's bouquet and groom's boutonniere can set the tone for the wedding and the wedding image. They are referred to as mandatory expenses, but you can save money on this as well. Expensive orchids or anthurium can be replaced with cheaper attractive analogues: roses, chrysanthemums, chamomiles, tulips and others. Use seasonal flowers to decorate the hall, experiment with combinations: in the summer you can add wild flowers, in the winter dry flowers, in the spring green branches, in the autumn bright maple leaves and red berries. You can make a bouquet yourself: with vintage brooches, beads or ornaments, it will look very original and unusual. To decorate the car, you can also use not the most expensive flower arrangements, as well as various decorative elements like dolls, rings and other paraphernalia.
8. Help friends. Involve in the preparation of friends and relatives. Of course, friends and so are engaged in the development of the scenario of a bachelorette party and the bride price, but help is never superfluous. Ask them to join you and make invitation cards, decorate the hall. If you have a familiar artist - you can order posters or cartoons for him - they look very funny. All sorts of collages with photos and garlands of scrap materials can also be a worthy decoration of the banquet hall.
9. Extra costs. Fashion is very capricious, today one is considered an icon of style, tomorrow is another, you should not blindly follow all canons. If you do not want to spend money on huge bouquets or a chocolate fountain - do not let yourself be persuaded. Attract a professional, talk with the staff of a cafe or restaurant - they know how much food should be for one person at a banquet. This is especially true of the cake: the multi-tiered culinary masterpiece looks, undoubtedly, attractive, but if there are few guests, it is often left unfinished. On average, one serving is 150 grams, so for 50 people a 5-kilogram cake will be enough, especially since wedding cakes are not cheap at all.
Another stumbling block is a limousine, the cost of it is unreasonably expensive, and this does not add to the exclusivity of the wedding. For this amount you can rent a motorcade of several cars of the same color - it looks much more interesting. You can find a retro car or a beautiful carriage - also an unusual decision for reasonable money. Expensive salute can be replaced with a bubble show or a laser show - it will be cheaper. However, you can give preference to the launch of Chinese lanterns - quite a budget option.
10. Wedding for two. This option is becoming increasingly popular with newlyweds, this is a ceremony and a journey at the same time. You can sign, arrange a purely symbolic feast and go to another country, where to hold a wedding according to national ceremonies. You should not save money on the services of a photographer, because the results of his work will revive pleasant memories.
