If you're planning your nuptials, you will undoubtedly be aware there are a great variety of costs to consider. You'll be yearning to have custom outfits created by high quality wedding dress designers; keen to book a luxury venue and ensure that the guests are provided with delicious food; and myriad other costs. However, as most people are, you may well be under some financial constraint. If this is the case, you'd be well advised to heed the budget tips featured in this article.
Find An Affordable Gown
If you're an avid reader of the glossy celebrity magazines, you will undoubtedly have noticed the exquisite dresses worn by Kate Middleton, Gwen Stefani and Joy Bryant. However, it is important to remember that the purchase of a designer dress does not guarantee marital bliss. You might find the local wedding dress designers can design customised outfits to suit your budget and it might even be possible to buy a second hand dress from one of the bridal websites.
Hire a Wedding Suit
Those with plenty of money to spend may consider purchasing suits from the specialist high street tailors. However, there will also be the option of hiring suits from stores such as Moss Bros or Debenhams. You should take your time to find a suit that fits your groom particularly well. Just remember that men are generally quite reluctant to spend long periods of time in clothes stores!
Buy Seasonal Flowers
You might be keen to enhance the bride and bridesmaid's dresses with flowers, along with decorating the ceremony and reception venues with beautiful bouquets. However, if you're on a tight budget it is best to use seasonal flowers. Sweet peas will be absolutely ideal for midsummer events and hydrangeas are recommended for the autumn.
Ask For Make-Up Advice
Your chosen wedding dress designers may well be happy to also make recommendations regarding the type of make up that matches perfectly with your outfit. If not, you can always enjoy a free make up session at your local department store. You might even choose to buy some of the recommended lipsticks and blushers in preparation for your big day, and if you don't want the pressure of applying your own make-up, you can ask a friend or local expert.
Borrow Items
If you're a traditionalist, you'll know the importance of finding something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue for your big day. Of course you have the option of asking wedding dress designers to incorporating blue tints as part of your outfit, too. Ask a friend or family member whether they can lend you an old piece of jewellery or it might even be possible to turn up in a classic vehicle you have borrowed. Be creative!
