The wedding venue is almost 50 percent of the entire wedding price, so it’s essential that you think the choice of your venue through. If you want to get married in late spring or an early summer, consider outdoor venues. Not only will a large garden cost less but it’ll offer a much more comfortable and beautiful ambiance. You won’t have to spend money on flower decor if you pick out a garden that’s already filled with fabulous flowers. Your own backyard can be a wonderful solution, as well. Just make sure the landscaping is nice, and it’ll serve as an amazing wedding venue and you’ll cut the wedding costs in half immediately.

 

Limit the number of guests

You should spend your wedding day with the people you love and care about the most, so those are precisely the guests you want to invite. We all have second cousins, great uncles, and aunts, and co-workers we appreciate a lot and are glad to hear from, but let’s be honest – the last time you’ve heard from them was when they needed something from you, or vice versa. Therefore, you can easily cross them off the guest list and stretch your wedding budget.

 

Friday and Sunday will save you money



Saturdays have become the day for weddings, but this also made them expensive. On the other hand, marrying on Friday or Sunday will cost less, since the finest venues and vendors offer various discounts if you choose to tie the know on these days. Many in-town guests will be happy to attend a Friday wedding as well as the people with a less conventional working schedule, so it’s a win-win solution.

 

Make a memorable arrival

Making an entrance is one way to completely daze the wedding party. What’s more, it doesn’t have to break the bank since there’s a chauffeur service in Sydney that offers reasonable prices and will drive you safely and in style to your wedding venue. Just because you’re on a budget, it doesn’t mean that you have to sacrifice this luxurious and yet affordable wedding experience.

 

Budget-savvy food choices

Meal modification is one of the ways to save money while planning your luxurious wedding. Namely, if you’ve noticed that the courses will have to be made of out-of-season ingredients, ask if that can be changed. In-season and local ingredients are a much more affordable choice since they don’t require shipment and ordering. Furthermore, think about having a buffet table instead of a sit-down dinner and keep the event formal while cutting down the wait staff costs.

 

Affordable services

Save the money on video recording services, and instead of hiring a videographer, let your guests film the wedding. Everyone is on their phone most of the time anyway, so why not use their short videos and combine them into a wedding video. A lesser-known photographer is more affordable than the one everyone’s been talking about, so give an opportunity to a rising star if you’ve checked out their portfolio and liked what you saw.

Planning a wedding on budget is challenging, but quite possible. You don’t have to sacrifice the luxury just because you don’t want to break the bank. Just follow some of the previously mentioned tips, and you’ll have a fairytale wedding at a very reasonable price.
