Do It Yourself Wedding   Not rated yet
The best money saving tip I can give you is to do as much as you can on your own. Have a real do it yourself wedding.

If you are not that adventurous,...

The average wedding today costs $27,000. Most of us just don't have that much to spend. You can have a beautiful wedding without spending a year's salary on it.

For instance, you don't need to order a designer wedding dress that you see in the bridal magazines. You can attend wedding dress sales and find a beautiful dress on sale. Sometimes you can find one on sale brand new for about $100!

You can hire a seamstress to make a wedding dress for a fraction of the cost of a designer dress. My grandmother was a seamstress and made incredible wedding dresses when I was a child.

You can check out consignment shops and purchase a slightly used dress in almost perfect condition for a fraction of the original cost.

You may be able to borrow a wedding dress from a family member or friend. You will probably need to have the dress professionally cleaned before and after the wedding before returning the dress, but that will still cost less than a designer dress.

Cheap wedding plans include making your own veil with materials from a craft supply store. Or consider purchasing a pre-made veil or wedding tiara from Wal-Mart or a craft store. Wal-Mart has a great craft department and in that department is an aisle with wedding supplies. They are inexpensive, but nice.

The beauty is that you don't have to tell everyone that you found your wedding dress on sale on the rack or that you purchased your wedding veil at Wal-Mart.

The location of the wedding ceremony and reception can save you a lot of money. If you are a member of a church, you may be able to use the sanctuary and fellowship hall free of charge or at a reduced rate.

Cheap wedding plans mean you do not have to pay for a reception hall. And, as an added bonus, if your reception is held at the church, you don't have to worry about purchasing alcohol or fighting with relatives who want alcohol at your wedding. Most churches do not allow alcohol on the premises. This will be a major savings for you.

You can make your own wedding invitations, which can save money if you have a dependable computer and printer. If not, borrow a friend's equipment and maybe get some help from the friend as well if you are not familiar with creating cards on computers.

Consider making your own wedding bouquets, flower arrangements, and reception centerpieces.

Your wedding rings do not have to come from the most exclusive jewelry store in town. They can come from a thrift store. They can also come from Wal-Mart's jewelry department. Wal-Mart has a beautiful selection of wedding bands and diamonds.

Make cheap wedding plans by having a friend or family member make your wedding cake. If that is not an option, order it from your grocery store bakery for a much lower cost than ordering it from a fancy bakery where it can cost you more than $1000.
