With these tips, you too can make your own kind of beautiful at your wedding using a minimal budget.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Buy in bulk in shops that give discount for wholesale; for example bridesmaids&#8217; shoes can be bought in one go and in one place. Every sales person will be willing to discount on a bulky purchase.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Quit being overly competitive: Just because your friend had fireworks at the reception doesn&#8217;t mean you should. Be yourself. Don&#8217;t focus too much on trying to impress; that&#8217;s not what this day is really about.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Use free Internet at work (if you can) to send out thank you cards and solicitations.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Trim the guest list. You are not obligated to invite everyone that has smiled in your direction in the last year.<br \/>\nGet married on a weekday or on a Sunday. Venues won&#8217;t be so booked and you&#8217;ll likely get a cheaper rate. Even Friday is often cheaper than Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Don&#8217;t buy into the wedding hype. Remember that anything &#8211; be it a dress, shoes, flowers or food\u2014with the word &#8220;wedding&#8221; attached to it can instantly fetch 25%-plus premium. Try to steer clear of bridal boutiques and don&#8217;t tell service providers it&#8217;s a wedding unless you have to.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Go all out on the romance and elope! It is cheap.<\/p>\n<p>Keep the planning short. A month should be enough. That way, there&#8217;s no time to go all out crazy.<\/p>\n<p>And if you want you groom excited about that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mywedding.co.ug\/ceremony-reception\/this-secret-will-get-your-groom-excited-about-wedding-planning.html\">wedding planning, click here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Matsiga&#8217;s made a splendid wedding with only 13million.
