Want to
have the wedding of your dreams without breaking the bank? There are plenty of
ways to save. Here are five basic wedding budget tips to get you thinking.
1) Reception Time
The best way to help your wedding budget? Be mindful of your venue and the time. Pick a morning brunch, afternoon party or cocktail soiree instead. It’s likely that guests will consume less alcohol if the occasion is during the day. If you’re set on an evening event, try a buffet or family style meal where the cost per plate isn’t as high as a plated sit-down dinner.
