 5 Stupid Ways of Planning a Wedding on a Small Budget


Wedding planning is tough enough as it is without being forced to stick to a small budget. That said, you really can't hope to have any sort of wedding planning success if you keep making mistakes and spending more money than you have to. Planning a wedding on a small budget requires smart preparation, wise organization, as well as a plethora of clever, money saving ideas.


The Stupid Ways of Planning a Wedding on a Small Budget...


1. Not Setting a Realistic Budget. "Winging it" is NOT an option, sorry. Such a tactic might work for playing sports, getting out of a speeding ticket, coming up with an excuse for your boss, but it just doesn't work with planning a budget wedding. If you don't set a budget, you're flying blind and will spend WAY more than you can afford. Sit down, talk to your partner, find out what you can afford to spend.


2. Hiring a Wedding Planner. Are you kidding me? How do you expect to save money by hiring a middle-man (or middle-woman)? You can do everything they can do, just at 5 times LESS the cost.


3. Buying a Super Dress. This isn't a $ 10,000 wedding, it's a budget wedding that requires sacrifice. One sacrifice has to be the dress, sorry! You don't have to look like a hobo, but you can't very well spend thousands on a new designer gown and expect to come in under budget. Consider these options instead: second hand, antique, non-traditional, renting.


Quick Note: Just because planning a wedding on a small budget requires you to get an inexpensive dress, that doesn't mean it has to be ugly as sin. With the money saved, you can easily hire a good seamstress and make the necessary changes.


4. Doing the Fancy-Schmancy Meal. What don't you get? This is a BUDGET wedding, you can't be spending money willy-nilly. Bring food costs down by doing a buffet style meal where guests serve themselves. Offer cheaper, easily prepared foods which don't require paid servers. This weeds out those extra costs and it even offers a GREATER food variety to your guests.


5. Alcohol Fest. Weddings are not supposed to be frat parties, so the idea of an open bar is just insanely idiotic. Having a good time is one thing, but paying for people to get completely hammered on your big day is something else entirely. Instead of taking this route, buy the alcohol and drinks yourself in bulk quantities. Beer, champagne, wine, and other non-alcoholic beverages can be very cheap if you know where to look and what to ask for.


If you can avoid these foolish and costly ways of planning a wedding on a small budget, not only will you be able to create a great wedding, but you'll be able to do so with just a few thousand dollars!
