Smart Ways to Save

Save on Favors

Making your own favors is probably one of the easiest ways to save! Finding boxes, ribbon, and delectable chocolates is so easy for online shoppers! Choose one of our simple handmade favor ideas for the easiest of ideas.

Save on Invites

Making your own invites is probably one of the easiest ways to save! There are amazing invitation kits that will save you hundreds, if not thousands of dollars. With a tiny bit of creative flair, you can personalize the simple, but elegant kits as well!

Save on the Cake

Don't bother with a "wedding cake". Anything with the word wedding attached has extra $$ attached to the price tag! Go for a beautiful white cake and decorate it with flowers. Cupcake Wedding Cakes are super unique and will also save you money!

Save on Decorations

Go with small flower arrangements with flowers of the season. Or, one flower displayed with fervor! The other option is using candles.

Save on Your Wedding Dress

Have you heard of Rent-A-Dress! If you're not into that, you can save thousands on a dress from a sample sale (I got mine for $600 vs. $2500). It isn't out of date either, they just had two samples! The other option is getting a beach-style wedding dresswhich tends to be cheaper, but still beautiful and stylish.

Save on Reception Costs

Get married at a restaurant/hall in a quaint quiet neighborhood that supplies all the utensils and plates. Re-consider the outdoor wedding, the costs can be higher!

Save on Your Limo

Make a lot of calls and ask if the company can split the 3 hour minimum into two 1.5 hrs. It worked for me! The other option... call an airport limo! And, lastly if either of those don't work, rent a super cool car and find a friend of a friend (someone who isn't going to your wedding) who can drive you to and fro and half the price!
