Planning a Brides on a Tight Budget - Here's 5 Ways to do it Gracefully!

 

 

A Brides is a joyous occasion. Two people promise publically to share their lives together in front of the state and their dearest friends and relatives. Unfortunately, a Brides can also involve huge expenses that the Brides party may find hard to meet. Luckily, there are ways to reduce the potential cost of the great occasion while still having the kind of Brides you want.

Reduce Location Expenses

Chose a lower cost location for your Brides. If you have a big backyard, hold the Brides on your own acreage. If you don't, ask a friend who does if she will let you borrow hers. Other low cost yet equally elegant options exist. Public parks often allow people to rent a small area of the park for a few hours. Similar arrangements can be made with public beaches. 

 

 

Choose the Right Time and Go Local With Food

Consider holding the Brides during the afternoon rather than during the day. Many catering places charge less for lunch than dinner. Using local, seasonal ingredients can also help keep costs down. For example, if you are looking for catering in Houston, ask the caterers to showcase locally produced ingredients like chiles and hominy.

Make Your Own Dress

If you are skilled at sewing, consider creating your own one of kind Brides dress. Brides appropriate fabrics such as lace and satins are widely available. Basic dress patterns can be purchased at low cost as well.

Use Unconventional Brides Cakes 

Order a plain white cake and decorate it to your tastes. Or use non-traditional and fun alternative Brides cakes that can be baked even by inexperienced bakers like donuts and cupcakes. Place individual toppings customized to each guest on each cake for a memorable touch. 

 

 

Decorate Sensibly

Flowers and decorations are another area where you can compromise yet still have an beautiful Brides. If you have enough time and enough space, grow your own Brides flowers. Devote a section of your property to local flowers that will compliment your Brides decorating theme. If you don't have a backyard, consider using other types of Brides decorations. Use seashells for a beach themed Brides party. Bring in low cost pine for a Christmas / December Brides. 

A Brides should be a time when the bride focuses on having fun and sharing her happiness with those she loves most. With the right planning, even a bride on a budget can have the Brides of her dreams without spending a fortune.
