Every girl has dreamed of a magnificent wedding since childhood, but the budget does not always allow her to realize everything she has conceived. However, there are several ways to significantly cut costs without begging for pomp and solemnity.
Wedding Dress
One of the main elements of any wedding is the bride's outfit. It is he who lends itself to general discussion, and it is the bride that everyone eagerly wants to see on the day of the wedding. However, a beautiful outfit is usually very expensive, so it is not always affordable for newlyweds to buy the dress that they really want.
There is one secret that will not only allow you not to give up the desired wedding dress, but also save your money, two or even three times. We are talking about specialized sewing salons, where today you can sew almost any dress to order. Not only do you choose the model and fabric you need, but also the dress will be sewn, as they say, "according to the figure", and you do not have to shorten, hem and alter it after purchase. In addition, you can think over the design yourself and make changes to the original version. The main thing is to take care of this in advance so that you have time to sew an outfit for your wedding day.
Banquet
A banquet is a staple expense at any wedding. It is unprofitable and very expensive to feed all the guests even in the cheapest restaurant today. Therefore, in order to save money, use a couple of "tricks" that have been invented specifically to make the wedding as magnificent as you imagine, but at a lower cost.
First, try to arrange with your chosen restaurant to bring your own drinks and fruits. Then the amount of one "chair" at the banquet will almost halve, and you yourself will be able to choose and buy fruits and drinks much cheaper. Go to the market or visit the wholesale warehouse - there are always good discounts for bulk purchases for the celebrations.
Secondly, do not invite "extra" friends. The wedding will not become less magnificent if you do not invite your teacher's neighbor's daughter, but the money saved will allow you to keep within the budget.
Thirdly, if it is not important for you to arrange a banquet in an expensive restaurant, invite guests to a country house or to a summer cottage. Decorate the yard, place tables outside, lay white tablecloths. Involve friends and parents in making dinner. Then you can control the amount of food and its taste yourself.
Transport for guests
When there are many guests, you have to order cars on which you will drive around the city and deliver guests to the restaurant. Such rent is worth a lot, but there is a way to save money here too. Order a couple of cars for the newlyweds and their parents, and for guests it is enough to rent one minibus. It is several times cheaper, while it will be much more comfortable for the guests to move around the city together, rather than 2-3 people. The main thing at a wedding is for everyone to have fun and comfort, and, first of all, to the newlyweds.
