subject: Need Ideas For Planning A Cheap Wedding Reception [print this page]


Wedding reception planning is stressful, to say the least. Planning a cheap wedding reception, on the other hand, is near impossible, thanks to the sky high rates of vendors these days. Have you ever noticed that adding the word "wedding" before any product is a very simple for vendors to get 20 to 50 per cent more for the same product or services? High heeled shoes, for instance, might cost anywhere from Rs. 1000 to Rs. 2500, depending on the city that you live in and the brand that you buy. Weddings shoes, on the other hand, will not go for a penny less than Rs. 3500. If buying a pair of shoes is so expensive, can you imagine the cost of planning a reception?

If you need ideas for planning a reception that guests will remember without breaking the bank, then you are certainly in the right place. Read on for some suggestions and tips on planning for reception:

1.Forewarned is Forearmed

Before planning a reception, be sure that you do a thorough market survey. Get quotations from numerous hotels (for housing the baratis and other guests from out of town), banquet halls (for actually holding the reception), not to mention various vendors like caterers, florists, etc. Once you have a good idea of the present market value of various things, then you can negotiate on a better

footing. Or, if you think that the hassle is not worth your time, you can hire a wedding planner and outsource the headache of wedding reception planning.

2.Planning a wedding reception at home

Planning a wedding reception at home may seem ludicrous, but if you live in a large home or a bungalow, then this is an option that you should seriously consider. After all, your home is the place where you grew up. Can you imagine getting married anywhere better? It will be another beautiful memory to add to the ones you already have about your home. It will involve some serious preparation and effort on your part (both before and after the wedding), but just think about all the money that you will save. For those of us who are on a budget, planning a wedding reception at home is the perfect solution.

3.Pick your timing carefully

Planning wedding reception becomes infinitely easier if you choose to get married during the off season. Generally speaking October to January is considered the most auspicious season to get married, so if you set your wedding date in this period, you can forget about planning a cheap wedding reception. In some cases, rates increase by as much as 50 per cent in this period.
