Money Saving Tips

Even cheap weddings can seem expensive when the day comes to pay for all the components.

Whilst many couples scour the internet and discount stores for every bargain imaginable, not everyone thinks of saving money on other things.

With the current economic woes world-wide, the more money you can save the better.

And then you can put that money towards your wedding!

Cheap Wedding Plans

  • Save money on your groceries - make a list of meals that you will prepare for the week and ONLY buy the ingredients that you need. Stick to it and avoid those "nice to have items" that you don't need plus avoid throwing away out of date food.

  • Make your own cards and presents and save $$$'s! You don't have to be arty but "crafty" girls know how to make or print their own cards using kits forms or their PC and homemade gifts are SO much more personable than shop-bought items.

  • Stop buying a daily coffee. If you add up the amount of money spent on expensive cups of coffee every day, you can save $100's if not $1,000''s of dollars depending on how much coffee you consume.

  • Make your own lunch. Yes this is time consuming but once you get into the routine, it only takes a few minutes just before going to bed and a home made sandwich or salad is much healthier AND much cheaper.

More Cheap Wedding Ideas

  • Are you a magazine-a-holic? Do you know how much you spend on a monthly magazine or two or three?

    Nearly all of the information you need is available online and what's more it's free! Like the page you are reading right now. So put the cash saved on your magazines towards your budget.

  • Why get married on a weekend? It's far cheaper to book a wedding venue on a Friday or a Monday plus photographers, wedding cars and florists will also be less expensive.

    And your guests can still have the pleasure of a long weekend away!

  • Start putting all your loose change in a big jar. You'll be amazed at how much you can save in just a few weeks. Plus keep your eyes DOWN when walking around. Poeple drop things like loose change all the time!
