I can’t believe it has already been a week since my last post. Last week I shared with you where I would recommend you spending that extra dollar at your wedding and today I want to tell you some ways to save a little money. The following are three ways to save money at your wedding:
Bar. Having an open bar verses a limited bar can mean the savings of thousands of dollars. I know most guests come to weddings wanting that drink, but there can be a money saving compromise where you can just offer beer, wine and champagne. Guest still can celebrate the night away with you, but just not at the expense of your wallet.
Flowers. I am not telling you to skip on the flowers, but instead of having every table with extravagant centerpieces just pick a couple tables to have those and then the rest have a smaller piece. You can even have three tiers of floral arrangements, a large medium and small. You could easily save hundreds of dollars, by just cutting back on large floral arrangements.
Cake. A wedding cake can easily cost you a $1000, however there is a way to slice your costs. Work with a bakery to design a faux wedding cake and then have a sheet cake in the back. Even with a faux cake, have a least one tier of the real thing so you can officially “cut the cake”.
What things have you done at your wedding to cut cost and not style?
