Hi there,

You will always look back at your day and there will be things you will wonder why you spent money on.
The answer may vary from person to person, but your best way is by deciding, what is important to you?

Below are a few things to consider. Please just take the advide that is relevant for you.

Invitations - Keep it simple! Costs can add up quite quickly when you add that extra embossing or gold foil, then multiply it by how many copies you need. Don't forget that you need RSVP's, Registry, Map/Directions, and all the other bits too!

Thank You Gifts - You don't want to give something cheap and nasty, but you also don't want to spend something ridiculous. If you're looking at $8 per person, and 100 guests, that's $800! Why not donate $100 to a charity of your choice, and let the guests know where the money went? No one dislikes money going to a good cause.

Videographer - How many times will you actually watch your wedding video? These days videographers put together a short video of your whole day, which is what you will be sharing with your family and friends. Cut costs by going with 1 videographer instead of 2 and having the short video as your momento.

Bouquet Toss - A lot of brides order a second bouquet specifically for the toss. If you haven't got you heart set on keeping your bridal bouquet, then why not throw yours at the toss? 


These are just a few of the ways you can save money.

Good Luck with your planning!
