Tip 1: Keep It Intimate and Fun


Who says bigger is always better? Opt for an intimate wedding with just your closest friends and family. Not only does this create a cozy atmosphere, but it also helps you save big on venue costs, catering, and decorations. Plus, fewer guests mean less obligatory conversations with those you barely know and more time enjoying time with loved ones– double win! Remember, it's not about the size of the wedding; it's about celebrating your love in a fun and meaningful way.



Tip 2: Hunt for Hidden Gems


When it comes to choosing your wedding venue, think outside the box! Consider unconventional locations like parks, museums, or even your favorite coffee shop. These hidden gems often come with lower rental fees and provide a unique backdrop for your special day. Get creative and explore all the possibilities – you never know where you might find the perfect spot that fits your style and budget! Just because it isn't traditionally used as a venue, doesn't mean they wouldn't be willing to close up shop for a night to make your dreams become a reality. It never hurts to ask! The Sanctuary on Main offers an upstairs area perfect for an intimate wedding! Check them out!

Tip 3: DIY Décor and Thrifting Delights


Why splurge on expensive decorations when you can get crafty and create your own? Embrace your inner DIY guru and personalize your wedding décor with handmade touches. From hand-painted signs to creative centerpieces, the possibilities are endless! Not only will you save a ton of money, but you'll also add a personal touch that reflects your style as a couple. Hit thrift stores and antique stores. You never know what you might find! Also join local bridal groups. Secondhand decor is just as great and it is usually a fraction of the cost!

Tip 5: Delegate and Simplify


Wedding planning can be overwhelming, especially if you're trying to do everything yourself. Don't be afraid to delegate tasks to reliable friends and family members. Whether it's coordinating vendors, setting up decorations, or managing the guest list, sharing the workload can lighten your stress and make the planning process more enjoyable. Remember, simplicity is key – focus on the things that truly matter and let go of the unnecessary details. Have your girls get together and help you with your DIY projects. Most wont mind and will probably even enjoy these last get togethers before the I Do's!
