How weddings can be cheap and special

If you are one of many couples who opt to have a cheap wedding without
compromising what you have desired for your special day, consider a
few of these ways of saving money on your wedding location, reception
and decorations.

Backyard weddings or at-home ceremonies with outdoor wedding
receptions are very popular depending on where you live, the climate
and the season. If you or a family member or close friend don't really
have the room to set up and accommodate your guests and a buffet and
eating area, check with local parks to see about renting a pavilion
and space for an afternoon.

A wedding theme is one of the best ways to be creative with your
wedding planning. It gives you a beginning point for your creativity,
and helps you connect all of your ideas together. Wedding themes are
often as simple as a color, and other options are more elaborate, like
a masquerade wedding. Common themes include seashore, outdoors,
seasonal (like fall or spring) and flower (like daisy or rose). Don't
be worried to choose a one of a kind wedding theme. Even though you
choose a standard wedding theme, try to let the creativity flow and
change it a little bit to make it unique to you.

You can ask family and friends for ideas and advice. Speak to them to
get them involved, give everyone a job they can carry out and once the
job is done you can begin to see your wedding ideas come to life.

Also you can consider experienced vendors. They're great resources to
bounce ideas off of, and they should also love to share their wealth
of knowledge with you. Search for vendors like florists, caterers and
cake designers that match your creative style. Wedding planners can
also be very helpful in providing ideas and advice while helping to
take it all together for you.
