Your wedding day is probably the most important day of your life. You expect every detail to be perfect and run smoothly at the date of your event. However, nothing comes free and hence you need to cut down unnecessary costs so that you could stick to your budget but have a lavish wedding at the same time. So here are some of the easy ways to you could avoid such costs.
- Hire a wedding planner
Most of you might be under the misconception that hiring a wedding planner is costly than usual. However, the point to note is that they actually cut down costs. They have been in the industry for long and hence know exactly whom to contact, regarding the entire marriage ceremony. They might be able to get you some discounts from the industry’s finest, through their personal contacts. They might also be able to offer package deals that will be cost beneficial for you. - Book early, finish early
If you book your vendors early, you are highly likely to get an early-bird discount. Most vendors welcome early booking as it gives them time to plan ahead and get things done with no rush. Also, you need to finish the special moments of your wedding early. For example, cut the cake and toss the bouquet early so that you can send off the photographers who charge an hourly rate. Your guests wouldn’t mind since towards the end, they’ll be clicking their own photographs. Also, you might be able to get discounts for your credit cards at the leading diamond jewelers, caterer, dress maker etc. - Cut custom made elements
The bridal dress, wedding rings custom made etc. are unnecessary costs to you. Go for ready-made dresses so that later on you could add a simple beading or lace to make it your own. Also, do not spend too much on the invitation cards. The card is simply a token to deliver a message and after the event, it is simply going in the dustbin. - Leave the flowers
Flowers are not that expensive but it is the labour that takes up all the money. Leave the flowers for the essential and elements and go with other decorations for the rest of the hall. For example, it is compulsory to have flowers for the bridal party bouquets and hence go for it and use tall candles, glass pebbles, floating candles etc. for your table décor. You could save a ton of money. If you are going for flower decorations, choose flowers in the season as off season flowers can be really expensive.
