Planning for a wedding is one of the most exciting and stressful times in a personâEUR(TM)s life; there are so many directions you can go and hundreds of options for venues, food and decorations. One of the most difficult parts of wedding planning is getting everything you want at a price you can afford. There will inevitably be areas where youâEUR(TM)ll need to cut corners, but luckily there are some fun ways to make your wedding unique, while also trimming costs!
Guest List and Setting - One of the easiest ways to go overboard on a wedding is an extensive guest list at a high-end venue. Many couples are opting for a much smaller guest list and a more casual setting, which can shave thousands off your wedding budget. Not only will the casual setting and more intimate group cut costs, but itâEUR(TM)s easier to host a less traditional dinner this way. Many brides are choosing small food stations and appetizers or snacks that can be eaten throughout the night, versus a formal dinner, which needs to be scheduled and seated.
Film - One small change may make a world of difference in the way you remember your big day; some brides are choosing film over digital pictures. While digital cameras and editing software can create some amazing effects, film can add a romantic and lush look to photos that not even digital effects can create. Some photographers will offer both options, so you can capture your big day in more than one way!
Bridal Parties - While a large bridal party doesnâEUR(TM)t add too much extra cost to the budget, it makes up for it in stress. Large bridal parties mean more people to manage; the attire, hair, makeup and crazy personal schedules. Many couples are learning that itâEUR(TM)s also a major expense to be in a wedding, and some donâEUR(TM)t want to place that kind of burden on close friends. A smaller bridal party speeds up the picture-taking and allows your guests to truly enjoy the reception. Also, smaller bridal parties means you can spend more on your bridal party favors, since they are your closest of friends and deserve the most thoughtful of gifts.
