"Cheap" wedding ideas are abundant online. And I don't mean cheap in a good way...In fact, some of them are down right tacky! Finding those few inexpensive and beautiful gems when you're planning a cheap wedding may not feel like an easy task.

But here's the good news - there are alot of simple ideas that can end up saving you alot of money! Check out some of my favorites below!

Cheap Wedding Rings

I've talked to a lot of people who spent more on their wedding rings than we did on our whole wedding!

That just shows you how important wedding rings actually are to a lot of couples.

The good news for brides (and grooms) on a budget is that inexpensive wedding rings don't have to be "cheap".

There are actually a lot of ways you can save. From buying on ebay and online discount sites to simply knowing your options when it comes to metals, style and gems.

Cheap Wedding Favors

There are easily hundreds (if not thousands!) of ideas for wedding favors to choose from. And if you're not careful they sure can take up a big chunk out of your budget. The good news, is that with so many options it doesn't have to!

You can still get some really lovely favors for very little money. Below are 3 of my favorite ideas for inexpensive favors for people looking for classy but cheap wedding ideas.

Country Favors		Tea Wedding Favors		Flower Seed Favors

Small weddings generally make it easier to make cheap wedding plans. So if yours happens to be small you might be able to justify a slightly more expensive favor since you won't have to buy as many. Same goes for favors that can be given to a couple vs. one per person.

Budget Wedding Invitations

Here's one place it might seem tough finding cheap wedding ideas.

You'll be surprised to know that even though invites might seem expensive today, you should consider yourself lucky if you're searching for wedding invitation ideas.

There was a time not too long ago that any bride planning a wedding had to spend nearly a thousand dollars on wedding invitations alone.

Today, there are SO many suppliers selling inexpensive wedding invitations. And even though the most unique invites still cost a bit more, you can still get some fantastic DIY invitation kits as well as some simple and lovely budget wedding invitations for a very decent price. Sometimes even under $100!

Cheap Wedding Cakes

Wedding cakes can cost an astonishing amount of money. There was a time that the wedding cake would automatically cost a couple upwards of $1000 - no questions asked!

If you're looking for a cheap wedding cake photos and ideas to avoid that kind of crazy expense there are a lot of ideas.

From small cakes and cupcake to simple wedding cake designs and crafty DIY projects there are alot of simple ideas to help you save.

Inexpensive Wedding Dresses

The wedding dress is probably the most anticipated item for a bride planning a wedding. So much so that some brides spend more on her dress than the actual reception (making the hunt for cheap wedding ideas all the more important!)

If you're on of those gals you can STILL find a wonderful and cheap wedding gown!

I've pulled together a few inexpensive wedding dresses from the online retailers that I trust. Check em out!
