I hate to beat a dead horse, but by now everyone is pretty aware of the world economy. With the popular wedding season upon us, the ever rising cost of this momentous occasion has got to be on the minds of the families of both the bride and groom. Being in the market for an eligible bachelor myself (hint, hint Justin Timberlake!), I’ve searched the web for a few tips on lower budget weddings. Credit goes out there to the bloggers who really hooked me up with some great tips.
Firstly, with the popularity of email these days, why not cut down on cost and go green with e-vites. There are many online invitation sources you can use and they don’t cost a thing, and your guest really won’t mind an email invite they can RSVP to right online. Don’t be afraid to enlist the help of various friends and relatives when it comes to some of the easier details. Baking doesn’t come easy to all, but there has to be one friend or family member in your circle that would at least give it a try!
A great way to cut down costs is to find reasonably priced flower girl dresses. Of course we at SophiasStyle.com pride ourselves in affordability, and our selection of high-quality flowergirl dresses is next to none. There are no bridal shop premiums paid here just because you are getting married!I’ve been to some extravagant weddings in my day, but the most fun I’ve ever had was at my sister’s wedding in our parent’s back yard! The idea of holding a reception or even the ceremony at someone’s house is becoming increasingly more popular and acceptable. You can save money by not having to rent a venue, and with a little elbow grease, a rental company, and a good DJ, I doubt you will hear any complaints. I also recently went to an impromptu wedding at a friend’s house on New Year’s Eve. The pastor was more than happy to marry the beautiful couple at the home, and we had a wonderful yet simple dinner. Not everyone is a chef however, so maybe you could even hold a pot luck dinner.
