Do It Yourself Wedding

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, at least do one or two things on your own. You can save thousands of dollars off of your wedding budget.

For instance, cater your own wedding. Get some family members to help cook the wedding reception food. Keep it simple. Or sew your own wedding dress, make your own veil or wedding shoes or clutch.

Make your own do it yourself wedding bouquet and/or other wedding flowers.

Make your own music CD to be played at the reception instead of a band. Burn songs on to a CD from various albums that you have. Make your own wedding favors, invitations, or wedding programs. There are many things that you can do ahead of time to save money. Try it.
