Weddings On A Shoestring Can Be Elegant
If you are a little tight for money and are planning a wedding this doesn't mean that you cannot have the elegant wedding of your dreams
. If saving money means a great deal then you may wish to consider budgeting for wedding insurance as it can save you money in the long run should the unexpected happen.
The typical wedding costs many thousands of pounds when you add up all the different vendors, the dress and the venue. So how can you save money? Well one of the first things you should so is haggle with the vendors. For instance when you are getting quotes for photographs try to get them to knock something off the price by telling them you got a cheaper quote elsewhere. Nine times out of ten the vendor will give you a slight discount just to get your business and if they say no then you have not lost anything but a little pride perhaps.
The venue is one of the most expensive things that you have to pay out for your wedding. Typically some of the top hotels and venues will charge upwards of two thousand pound for you to hold your wedding reception on their premises. With this in mind you may wish to look around, there are numerous pubs, clubs, village halls and other venues that charge a lot less. When visiting venues you should not look at the empty room but instead imagine it lit up with lights, decorations and filled with your guests. If you have your heart set on a specific venue but you cannot afford it then you may wish to consider asking how much you could save if you held your wedding there during the week instead of the weekend. Often you can save many hundreds of pounds by having your wedding during the week rather than at the weekend.
Food at the reception can be another huge cost that leaves you in awe, depending on the amount of guests that you are having to the wedding. You may wish to consider just booking a room and then doing the catering yourself with friends or pay for someone to come and do the catering for you. Some venues will only let you have the room if catering is down by them or they allow you to bring in someone for the outside and just charge you for the room. This is one way to get the food you want at the wedding and still have the reception at the venue of your choice as it will be cheaper without the catering thrown in. You may also wish to check if the venue you choose provides entertainment thrown in and if you can bring your own.
When planning your wedding it may seem like a wasted added expense to take out wedding insurance. However if something should happen, the insurance may be able to save you financial loss. Again shop around for the insurance so that you are able to obtain the cheapest possible premiums with the level of cover needed.
