Planning A Wedding On A Budget
Cheap weddings: It sounds like an oxy-moron in so many ways doesn’t it? Well, get over it
because that is the future of wedding planning. Spending your life savings on your big day is not just crazy it is insanely idiotic. You can have elegant, beautiful weddings and receptions without having to go broke in the process. Today’s couple knows that weddings on a budget just make
more sense than spending like crazy. That and the days when the bride’s parents pay for
everything is just about over. Nowadays couples are often spending their own money on the
wedding as many of them live together long before the wedding day.
Cheap weddings don’t have to mean that you have to give up on style or sentimentality. It
means using your imagination, and using your own hands or the help of friends and family
rather than paying through the roof for professionals. You can save some money without
skimping on any of the good stuff. Planning a cheap wedding is planning dream weddings but
with much more cash left over. Wouldn’t you rather have money to put down on a house or to
pay for your honeymoon?
You don’t have to do what everyone else is doing to make your special. There are so many
ideas that can make your wedding a great deal cheaper in the long run. Some of these ideas
include:
· Buying your dress secondhand
· Having friends and family make your food and cake for you in lieu of a wedding gift
· Using an MP3 player instead of hiring a DJ
· Having your reception at home with only close friends and family
· Not inviting the entire universe to your wedding
There are just so many things that you can do to make your wedding days a bit cheaper that
this article alone cannot cover them all. Brainstorm and use your imagination to find more ways to stay within your budget. When you need to throw a wedding on a budget, you can always
make sure that you and your fiancé opt for a wedding that does not cost as much as the
average wedding. You can have your wedding outdoors, in your yard or that of a family

member, have theme based wedding that can be easy to create etc. Theme weddings always

Hints And Tips For The Perfect Wedding
There are many things that you can do to have a perfect wedding without spending a fortune
doing it. One of the first things that you need to do is develop a wedding plan, decide who is helping you plan your special day, and stick with it! Work a budget into the mix that is written in stone and stick within your means no matter what. Consider working with a professional
wedding planner or consultant who has the know how to help you find ways to save money.
There are lots of traditional wedding expense breakdowns and financial responsibility
assignments, following general outlines or etiquette rules and suggested practices. Traditionally, the bride’s parents would foot most of the bill, parents of the groom might want to contribute in some meaningful financial way, shape or form or just pay for specific things, or even share costs equally.
Some couples choose to save, pay for their own weddings, others use the kindness of
benefactors, and other family members who want to contribute and lessen the burden on
everyone. Couples and parents find innovative ways to deal with the expenses they face. They
set up a wedding account, where everyone’s contributions are deposited. All bills are paid from that account, or they split costs in three equal parts. Parents on both sides and the couple each take a third of the expenses and cover their portion of the cost.
Setting up a master ‘wedding account’ is always a great idea to control spending, manage
budgets, avoid conflicts. You can ease the financial burden this major life event is placing on everyone by offering a unique service and channel for one-and-all who feel they want to
contribute. It also provides the family with the unique opportunity to have others provide cash.
It is accepted practice that attendants pay for their own clothing, but in some cases, especially where the option to share expenses has been mobilized, the wardrobe will be funded
so to
speak. Rentals that will have to be returned and/or purchased, traditional, themed or even
home-made outfits are always other options as well, depending on your wedding’s unique style,
set-up and context. Traditionally the bride and/or her family would pay for the bride’s dress, veil and accessories; her mother’s dress and father’s formal wear as well as the bride’s trousseau, honeymoon clothes and lingerie.

Reception – the bulk of the cost for any wedding would be the food and drink, party rentals,

Getting professional help from a seasoned, well-versed wedding expert will be dollars saved in the end and a smart investment strategy to help you
curb costs AND create the perfect ambience and
