Planning a Wedding on a Budget
Sedona on Apr 3rd 2008
We’re all looking for ways to save money, especially nowadays. If your wedding is coming up, don’t panic. There are many tips to help you plan your wedding on a budget.
I recently found Titanium-Jewelry, which sells wedding bands at a reasonable cost. Their titanium wedding bands are on sale for as little as $69. Lest you think you’ll have to compromise style for price, think again. The low cost wedding bands have a contemporary and almost forward looking style.
Other wedding on a budget tips consist of do it yourself projects. There are many do it yourself invitations and do it yourself wedding cakes. Kits are available for either one, helping to guide you in their creation. The current trend for wedding invitations makes room for your creativity. Non-traditional shapes and colors are popular among today’s brides. While ecru is still popular, bright colors, such as turquoise and lime, are going into those matching wedding invitation envelopes.
There are also do it yourself wedding decorations that can help you plan your wedding on a budget. Miniature vases, galvanized buckets, baskets, or other containers can be purchased at a discount store and, with a little creativity, no one will know how little you paid. You can decorate the vases with votives, dried or silk flowers and vines. The galvanized buckets can be filled with sand, shovels or other miniature beach toys for a summer wedding. Painted baskets look good with dried flowers for a nice spring or summer wedding. Mini framed pictures of the bride and groom scattered throughout the guest tables give a personal and inexpensive touch to the wedding decorations.
Additionally, you may be able to “haggle” with vendors and stores. As reported on Yahoo, Haggling in a weak economy is OK. So, with a little bargaining, creativity, and forethought, you can have a wonderful wedding on a budget!
