Work Out Your Wedding Needs
The first step to saving wedding dollars is for you and your fiancé to write down your individual wedding goals. This will help work out elements of the wedding are the most essential to each individuals. Combine your priorities into a Top Ten Priority List. Then determine which areas you want to spend more money on and which areas you need to cut back on. 

Cheap Wedding Cakes
The wedding cake can take up a large part of your wedding day budget. Check out these cheap wedding ideas to keep you within budget:

• Use a small wedding cake or perhaps fewer tiers. You will find that not each and every wedding guest will eat their portion and quite a few guests will choose not to take a piece home. On the other hand, you could by pass the dessert and instead use the wedding cake as the final course.

• You could also use fresh blooms as the decoration on your wedding cake. This will save the expense of time consuming hand made sugar flowers, which ramp up the expense of your professional wedding cake.

Wedding Flowers
Whilst your wedding flowers is a vital part of your own bridal style statement, you only get to make use of them temporarily and then toss them aside by the end of the evening. In lieu of investing huge amounts on your flowers consider these wedding budget alternate options:

• Use a small wedding cake or perhaps fewer tiers. You will find that not each and every wedding guest will eat their portion and quite a few guests will choose not to take a piece home. On the other hand, you could by pass the dessert and instead use the wedding cake as the final course

• You could also use fresh blooms as the decoration on your wedding cake. This will save the expense of time consuming hand made sugar flowers, which ramp up the expense of your professional wedding cake.

• Select wedding flowers in-season. They’re much cheaper than the high priced imported varieties and definately will look more fresh as well as last longer on the day.

• Get more use out of your church floral arrangements and make use of them to decorate your reception and guest lounging areas.

• Instead of just working with fresh flowers as reception table centerpieces, integrate them with some other eye-catching elements for instance candle light, hand crafted personalised crafts and decorative vases.

Wedding Planning Tips
A terrific way to help to make major discounts on your wedding would be to steer clear of booking your wedding in high demand seasons.

Instead of getting married in the most popular time of the year – typically spring and summer, you could book a beautiful fall or wintertime wedding. You’ll be able to negotiate more affordable venue fees, but a cooler climate will provide your wedding with a completely unique and gorgeous wedding theme.

Likewise, instead of a typical Saturday wedding, why not arrange a Friday or Sunday affair celebration. Rates tend to be more competitive and it is a wonderful way to shorten a couple of hours at the venue. What’s more, your guests won’t be tempted to party all night long, since many will need to go to work the next day. 

Budget Wedding Reception
While you don’t want the guests to go hungry, there are ways to keep the catering costs down yet still satisfy their appetites.

• You need to be strict with the guest list. Is it really necessary to invite your third cousin you haven’t seen since you were 6 years old and will never see again? Aim to keep the focus on quality not quantity.

• If permitted, stock the venue with your own alcoholic beverages. This way you can get your wine and spirits direct and benefit from the savings.

• Another idea is to have a cocktail party or garden luncheon for your wedding reception. Offering finger food and light snacks will certainly cut down the level of catering needed. If your guests realize it is going to be ‘cocktail’ or light refreshments only, then they can prepare themselves for the type of food on offer.

Simple & Stunning
Take a look at list and seek out areas you can simplify. You might manage to decrease the quantity of family and friends, the menu choices, or the degree of detailing on your wedding dress. Don’t forget, simplicity is always elegant and will help save you extra dollars. 

Lovely & Cheap Wedding Ideas
Using cheap wedding ideas does not have to mean sacrificing on styleor good quality. In fact, uncomplicated designs along with unique touches always make for a stylish wedding regardless of how much money you spend.
