1. Instead of serving your display cake, have a cake for cutting that is tucked away in the kitchen. This gives you the opportunity to spend on a small but beautiful cake for display that is within your budget.
2. Send your guests digital invitations. You’ll save money by avoiding physical invites as well as the post office charges. You can also reach out to as many guests as possible with digital invitations.
3. Shop for your wedding shoe at the retail stores rather than the shops that sell wedding attire. You can find a good match at a cheaper price if you shop online or in any store that doesn’t necessarily offer wedding-related accessories or dresses. Make sure you carry the shoe when you go dress fitting so that you can see how well it matches with your gown.
4. Always compare quotes from different service providers. If you’re planning your wedding during the off-peak season, take your time before booking. The service providers may come calling with a better rate. But don’t wait too long lest you end up settling for something you don’t really like.
5.This is especially important if you’ll have many kids in your guest list. The last thing you want is to hear kids screaming as you recite your vows.
