With the high cost of living,gas,etc. rising one must be smart when spending on a wedding. Remember the cost of a wedding can amount to as high as $25,000. This is indeed a lot of money to spend for just one day and it is not a small wonder that many couples find themselves financially strapped for many years after their return from their honeymoon. Gabby Love offers many tips and techniques to save on a wedding.
One of the main thing to remember is that it's your wedding so keep control. When paying for items for the wedding like invitations, avoid anything that says wedding on it because it's cheaper. Get generic items like invitations rather than official wedding invitations. Get prom dresses at a department store instead of formal dresses for your bridesmaid. Hey, you may even find a nice white gown with beautiful lace to be used in a casual wedding. This will save considerable amount of money.
To really save money on your wedding take time during the early planning stages of your wedding plans and decide on the big ticket items of the wedding that will affect the overall cost of the wedding. If you really want to keep the cost down then exchange your vows and cut the cake in front of a few friends and family.
I have a friend who took this advice to heart and took the money that they initially were going to look at paying for a big wedding and placed a down payment on their new home and were married at their home. They were married in the Springtime in their own backyard which was colorfully decorated. The minister was actually a family member of the bride. Remember if you have a large family or friends you may be surprised to find a minister who could definitely cut down the cost. Even the wedding reception was held at their home which was beautifully decorated and food had been provided by both families. Overall everyone had a fun time and the couples saved considerable amount
The key point to remember is to be creative and not forget that even though a wedding is one day , the cost of the wedding could last for years. Why come back home from your honeymoon in debt for years to come?
