Planning a Cheap but Nice Wedding
June 24, 2008 – 7:56 pmThere are around a thousand ways that can make your wedding the costliest one celebrated ever. The designer wedding gowns, elegant engraved invitations, and best photographers can cost you quite a few thousands of dollars. But the best tricks are those, which make your wedding look nice when it remains a cheap and budget friendly one. Here are some tips that will surely help you to plan the ideal wedding even if there is a budget constraint.
Wedding gowns and accessories
Yes this is true that the wedding gowns at the best shops can be as beautiful as the one of Cinderella’s. They can be designed out from the costliest silk decorated with silver and golden flowers-ready to dazzle the eyes of a would-be bride. But unfortunately the price tag attached to it can make you faint on the spot. So why don’t you go for the handmade ones made out of some equally glossy but cheaper material designed by you? They will look good on you as well as suit your taste perfectly. Similarly if you can settle on the handmade wedding rings and sleek and trendy tiaras then the budget will be within reach.
Reception expenses
The reception ceremony often demands a lot from you as they are meant to be the best ones. But you are one who needs to make it budget friendly at the same time. Now-a-days the fresh flowers cost a lot. So limit the amount off flowers used in the bouquets and decoration. If you are planning to throw the reception party in a lavish hotel then stop yourself then and there. The cheaper idea would be arranging it on the spacious garden of a relative or in a club. Cut the cost by fixing a mixed menu instead of the\he traditional three course meals. Make sure that the quality of the food is excellent so that the guests do not get a chance to criticize it.
Other expenses
The other expensive parts of a wedding are the photography, invitations, wedding cake etc. The best idea is to appoint your friend who has inclination towards photography to take the snaps of the wedding. Otherwise you can look for the professional ones who offer the best rates. The handmade wedding invitations are the best cost effective solution of saving on the stationery. Limit the size of the wedding cake and concentrate on the taste of it.
Now the final tip is - add the warmest of your emotions to the arrangement so that they cover even the nominal flaws.
