Your Wedding, Your day, From your invites to your dress.

There are several potentially expensive components to a wedding. The key is to work out what really matters to you and prioritise.
Just because it’s the latest thing to have a live band at your wedding does not mean you have to. Maybe you genuinely would be happy with a mate doing the work of a DJ, and would rather spend the money on a free bar so your guests can relax and really enjoy themselves.
If you love good food don’t mind about the cake, put it last on the list and you can always buy a cheap one, dress it up with flowers, and bank on people enjoying the food so much they won’t really notice the taste of the cake! It might be more important on the day to have a beautiful range of real flowers to carry and to adorn the venue with, than to spend the money on expensive invitations. In that case, find a DIY wedding invitation service and make your own!
Maybe if you’re a bride to be, your heart is set on the dress. A dress you will have forever and remember forever. Yet, if you’re honest, you don’t mind so much where you have your reception just as long as there is plenty of room and the toilets are clean. So splash out on that dress and made do with the local town hall!
If you can’t get your head around spending a small fortune on wedding invitations, and would rather have real fresh flowers in abundance on the day, have a look at DIY wedding invitations. They are really simple to design and create and much less expensive than going through a wedding invitation printer.
So work out what matters to you, and stick to you. Try not to be swayed by everyone else’s opinion. Work out what you want to remember from the day. Is your money best invested in memories, or the moment itself? Everyone is different. For the aspects of the wedding that you are not so particular about, you can always enlist the help of friends and family who are usually more than willing to be involved. Your sister may relish doing your DIY wedding invites for you! Or you might have a friend who will make 100 cupcakes instead of having a cake.
