2. Once you say “yes” to a marriage proposal, your life will definitely change, so you’d
probably want to bid goodbye to singlehood in an unforgettable manner. However, you
don’t have to squeeze out all your money for this occasion just to make it special.
Besides, you’ll be encountering more challenges after the wedding, so you better be
prepared—financially.
One of the biggest mistakes soon-to-be-wed couples usually make is that they have this
very long list of wants for their wedding—a very big cake, a vast reception venue,
expensive Perth wedding video packages and a lot more—without considering their
budget. The right way to have an extraordinary but realistic celebration is to know what
you can afford and spend within your budget.
So, for you to be able to celebrate your big day without going broke, here are some
money-saving tips for you:
Recheck your guest list
If you invite a lot of guests, you will need to stretch your budget significantly because a
bigger venue may be required accommodate everyone and you should allot more budget
for more food, invitations, favors and other stuff. Another advantage of having a small
wedding is that you can spend the biggest day of your life with your family and friends.
Wouldn’t it be nice to watch your Perth wedding video and see the people closest to your
heart? So, don’t feel obliged to invite everyone, even those you don’t know that well.
Set your wedding date on an off-season month
If you picture yourself as a June bride, then you may have to spend more money since
many couples prefer this month and churches, reception venues and wedding vendors
are in demand. So, if you’re running on a tight budget, choosing a wedding date on a
peak month isn’t a good idea; go for months like January, February and November and
be able to save.
Rent your wedding gown instead of buying
Bridal gowns can be very expensive so a practical alternative is to rent or buy from
consignment shops. These strategies offer you budget-friendly but still elegant gowns or
dresses that will make you look stunning on your big day and your wedding videos in
Perth or in your area.

3. Well, there are so many components in your wedding that you can adjust to be able to
keep up with your budget but there are also things that you shouldn’t go cheap on. First
of all, your wedding venue, whether it’s a church, beach or garden, should be big enough
and well-decorated to accommodate all your guests and get the ambiance you need.
Also, you should set aside a decent amount for your wedding videographer in Perth or in
your area to get high-quality mementos.
