I saved money on candle votives by cleaning out my old used candles and putting white candles in them. I also used a credit card with points and used my points for Michaels and David’s Bridal gift cards for my purchases. Hope this helps!!

If you are wanting to do a reception with dancing and or music, I saw this cute idea on Pinterest where you send out RSVP cards and have a section for them to request a song. You then could make that playlist yourself with songs your guest wants as well as there one you want. Another tip I saw was that instead of getting a DJ ask a friend to do it as your wedding present from them.


Just check out Pinterest it has a bunch of cool tips of how to have an awesome wedding without going over your budget.
Honeymoon tip: Ask for money for your honeymoon instead of kitchen things, if you’d prefer.

Congrats! My biggest money saver was on flowers - the $$ adds up very quickly! I chose to do Sola Wood flowers and I dyed them the colors of my wedding (navy blue, gold, and then a few different shades of green to make succulents). On sale I purchased about 700 sola woof flowers for about $150. You do then need to buy wires to turn them into bouquets and centerpieces but they sell them on bulk on amazon. I'll attach some photos before and after to show you!

If you have a good bridal team you could do lots of decorations with them. You can be your own wedding planner. If you have friends who do certain things (photographers, videographers, instrumentalists, etc.) they will probably give you a deal. Also if you have Apple Music or something like that you could be your own DJ or ask one of your friends to do it, if you plan on having dancing. There are lots of other tips on Pinterest too! I hope this was helpful!
