Great advice. I will do it in church easy busy
Is your husband a physical therapist by any chance? I am and have the same PT Exam prep books haha. Also planning a wedding early next year – thanks for the tips!
I’m planning my sisters wedding and my goal is to not go over $250 for the whole wedding 😂
I’ll update y’all to see if I did it
Anyone can get married for free. Just go into any courtroom at the end of the calendar. Ask the bailiff to give a note to the judge asking if he will officiate their wedding. 99% of the time a judge will be thrilled to. You can invite all your friends and get married right there in the judge’s courtroom. That’s what I did 40 years ago. We’re still happily married, and our only expense was treating the judge to a nice dinner right after. It’s crazy to spend a fortune on a fancy wedding. Save the money for buying furniture.
My boyfriend and I had our first kiss and date at a Chick-fil-A so Chick-fil-A is definitely going to be the food! We are doing a pickup instead of delivery and it cut the cost significantly as well
We did everything. The wedding mass was 1500. We got a tiered cake for cutting at Sam's club for 75 and a $300 strawberry shortcake from a bakery for serving. I made italian food (meatballs, Chicken parm, pasta, Chicken Brocoli and ziti, caprese skewers, Cheese sticks wrapped in Proscuitto and salami, cheese and crackers, salads and loaves of French bread) our uncle Was our Dj. We had it in a Knights of Columbus hall. We even had relatives who brought alcohol and there was a self service bar. It was beautiful, intimate, fun and best of all; cheap.
I really hope affordable wedding becomes a trend
Too bad Hob Lob only does floral 40% now! =(
Great video!😍
I have a farmhouse and flower farm.
I was wondering if it could be a budget wedding venue. The flowers would be free for the taking .
Does anyone think it would be viable ?
Buy a 1000.00 high quality cappuccino machine and stop wasting your money on Starbucks.
Pays for itself in one year . Or less
I went to different counties websites to see where they held county meetings and found a few places that they also hold weddings for under about 1000$ for outdoor ceremony, indoor reception and table and chairs all all included
Women like you… Ha! I’m a dad looking for ideas for my daughters wedding, after all who typically pays the bill? 😜
We just had a wedding and my dress and the restaurant were the most expensive things, I did not hire photographer, host, makeup artist. Our friends did everything for us. The wedding ceremony on the backyard of our beloved parents. We decorated everything ourselves. It was below 5k. I loved the photos and memories.
I found a public park pavilion venue that can host sixty people for $50.00 (plus $100.00 deposit) for four hours. It's in NJ called the LaGrande Park Pavilion in Fanwood, NJ. I am seriously considering that along with boxed gourmet local supermarket catering. There's also a multipurpose building you can rent for $1,000 that can hold one hundred twenty people in the same park. (That's a little more civilized than park benches in an open air pavilion.)
I've also been looking into alot of ways to save for a wedding. And me and my s.o came to the realization that there are alot of things we don't absolutely need. And you'd be surprised about how much you can save by cutting out the little things or just doing stuff yourself! I've planned so many party's, and dollar tree and craft stores have always been my first go to! I even made a backdrop out of pvc and got some walmart curtains and had a cute little photo area!
Thank you for making this! This gives us a few more ideas on how to save for our wedding! Also some more things that we're doing – we're making a playlist on a computer, so no need for a DJ. Average cost last time I checked was $1200. We're also having family members make the cake, and can I just say… SHEIN EVERYTHING. $2 bouquets and really nice and affordable dresses and shoes. I'm glad you mentioned canva, I just found them today for cheap wedding invitations but didn't know what else they had to offer!
Wow great idea, my son getting married soon that's why I am tyringti figured out the budget
what can I do if I don't want a church wedding but want an decent indoor space.
Weddings make me fucking sick to my stomach. I want to be married, not bankrupt.
