7 Ways To Save Money On Your Wedding? 1) Hire A Wedding Planner! No seriously, wedding planners have done the research & legwork already & we know which vendors will be a great fit for you. We negotiate contracts to make sure you arent being taken advantage of & we catch the not so obvious fine print in contracts that are often overlooked. Also youre busy! You have doctors appointments, personal errands and a job to worry about. Having someone to keep track of wedding tasks and handling all details on your behalf takes a huge load off your shoulders. All of this WILL save you money & time.(and your sanity!) 2) Mini Size it! Hiring a professional Caterer may not be in the budget or you may come up short on food for your menu. Cheer Up! You can have a mini tasting party at your reception! Break down food portions into smaller sizes and turn it into appetizers. I cant count how many times this little trick has saved my parties! Its a great way to make a little go a long way! 3) Buy a bridesmaids dress in white. You can find some pretty dazzling bridesmaids gowns for a fraction of the cost compared to an actual wedding dress. 4) Sometimes its best to use in-house caterers provided by the venue. It gives you peace of mind that your caterer is already onsite for your big day! Also you can knock out two birds with one stone. Since its already included in the bill, thats one less fee to worry about 5) Schedule your big day during off peak times You can save up to 30% by planning your big day for less popular months like November or March to name a couple. And set it for any day but Saturday. Saturday is the most popular day to plan events thus driving up the cost! 6) Start as early a possible to give yourself time to start stocking up on seasonal items. If you plan to have your wedding centered around the holidays, shop as far ahead as possible, you can get 75% or more off items during off season times! 7) Add finishing touches to your cake yourself & opt for a smaller cake. Remember that the more labor required to make your cake drives the cost up! So consider a smaller cake & decorate it yourself. Scatter a few flowers here or there or pin some ribbon on. It costs a lot less than paying for lace or ribbon made from fondant.
