As soon as you\u2019re engaged start putting aside as much of your income as you can for the wedding.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theknot.com\/\">TheKnot.com<\/a> recommends saving 20% of your monthly income.  The longer you are engaged, the more you\u2019ll be able to stock away. <\/p>\n<p>2.\tGet single page invites to save on postage.  <\/p>\n<p>3.\tGive out one favor per couple. We have a great selection of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bridalpartytees.com\/category\/favors.htm\">wedding favors<\/a> that are adorable and affordable! <\/p>\n<p>4.\tUse more greenery than flowers.<\/p>\n<p>5.\tInstead of booking an expensive venue, try to look for a friend that has a beautiful house with a big compound or yard. Ask them if you can have your wedding there. Having your wedding on private property can save you a lot of money. <\/p>\n<p>6.\tHave a friend do your hair and make-up instead of going to the salon. The cost of wedding day beautifications (hair, make-up, manicures and pedicures) can really add up! Make your own spa at home with mimosas, manicures, and brunch with your bridal party! Make it a perfect photo-op by wearing <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bridalpartytees.com\/designs\/category\/Bridal+Party\/showsub\">matching zip-ups, tee shirts, and tanks<\/a>! <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bridalpartytees.com\/\">Bridal Party Tees<\/a> makes customizing your group designs super easy and fun!<\/p>\n<p>7.\tShop the off-season for extra d\u00e9cor.  Get pretty pink vases after Valentine\u2019s Day, and rustic brown and burnt orange ones after Thanksgiving. <\/p>\n<p>8.\tHave bigger tables at the reception so you need fewer table clothes and center pieces. <\/p>\n<p>9.\tOrder a small one or two-tiered cake then supplement with a larger sheet cake hidden back in the kitchen. <\/p>\n<p>10.\tIf you have a photographer that you love but cannot afford, ask if they have an associate shooter who will do your wedding for less! <\/p>\n<p><P Align=\"Center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/static.bridalpartytees.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/weddingmoney.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/static.bridalpartytees.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/weddingmoney.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"weddingmoney\" width=\"298\" height=\"138\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2359\" \/><\/a><\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Planning a wedding is an incredibly fun and exciting task that most brides thoroughly enjoy and look forward to!
