Slash your guest list
This is one of the easiest ways to cut down your budget.
Indeed,
your wedding is a celebration and is a big day for you, but at the same time, it
is also a very personal moment. It is completely up to you and your parents
whom to invite. May be those people will complain later whom you did not
invite, but after all, its your call.
It is advised to keep your guest list to close relatives and
family, and obviously your friends.
The reception
Scrumptious food and the decoration cost millions, making
the reception one of the most expensive events. You can slash the costs
associated with reception by not arranging for those lavish brunches,
cocktails, cakes and champagne! You can also save costs by serving the food yourself;
this will not only improve your bonding with your family, but also save costs
on waiters and expensive decor.
The music
In communities like Punjabi's, good food and good music
define a wedding. However, this expenditure can easily be cut short by having
your own DJ for Mehendi, Haldi, cocktail, Baraat and others. Make a playlist of
your favorite songs, mix them, and play during weddings. You can also take help
of your friends to have a personalized playlist for the special occasions.
Flowers
Flowers can easily cost you thousands. For cutting those
costs, make an estimate first and then order the flowers. Keep it in mind that
you order for seasonal flowers so that you do not have to pay those extra bucks
on them. Yes, you can yourself make floral arrangements, and this is not as
difficult as it sounds!
It’s a good idea to order flowers without telling the
florist that those are for the wedding purposes, as the prices of the flowers
will automatically go up as soon as you mention this!
Saving on your wedding is not that tough, just that you
would need to make plans beforehand and have some creativity!
