Prioritise must-have flowers
The cost of flowers for your big day can add up to a considerable amount.
Do some research into which flowers are in season at the time of year you’re planning to get married. If you’re having a summer wedding, choosing flowers that blossom in the winter will likely mean you’ll have to buy them from overseas — substantially increasing the cost.
Decide what flowers are your favourites and prioritise them. Picking just one or two flower variants for your bouquets will help you save cash, compared with including numerous variants.
When buying flowers in bulk, remember that the more blooms you include, the more this will add to your spending.
Rent vs buy
In a lot of cases, it is much more cost effective to rent your decorations rather than buying them.
Rental companies will deliver all your decorations to you and could even help set them up at the venue, saving you time as well as money.
Go digital and cut the cartridge
Rather than spending an unnecessary amount of money on printing invitations, consider sending them digitally instead. You could send them via email or via e-invitations or download printable templates that you can print out yourself rather than paying for them to be professionally printed.
Favour off-peak days and seasons
In order to avoid the premium prices that venues charge for peak days and times of the year, choose when your wedding date wisely.
