Money Saving Tips

Here are a few tips that I have used to cut down on a wedding budget:

1. Cut down the guest list.
2. Choose a cake without nuts or fruit (this will also help with allergies).
3. Put together your own favors.
4. Address your own invitations.
5. One step further, print your own invitations and programs.
6. Have your bridal shower at someone's house or in their backyard.
7. Choose simple inexpensive flowers for the bouquets.
8. Most tuxedo rental stores have deals so that the groom gets his tuxedo for nothing.
9. Have open bar for only the cocktail hour and not for the entire reception.
10. Usually the chicken option for the dinner at the reception is the cheapest way to go.
