(Cheap) Wedding Checklist

wedding checklist

Every girl in the world has their own dream to make their wedding the best event ever had. Yap, being a king and queen in the very memorable occasion for two people that in love each other. 

Based on my experience helping some of my friend to held their wedding, most of them want to make it quite simple, cheap wedding but still romantic and cute one. Girl girl girl .... :). 

I noted some important point and tips, maybe as a guide for you my friends to follow or maybe as your consideration if your wedding in front of you. Here they are as follows, please feel free to added something from my checklist tips in the comment below :D :


Tip1 - Start from the wedding list
Take time off from other wedding tasks and focus on the wedding list first.

Tip2 - Decide whom to invite
It is not necessary to invite everyone to your wedding. So you can budgeting the cost for the invitation. Please make sure both of you already has the listing and try to not miss someone on it. But you still can decide either the person important or need to invite or not. 

Tip3 - Determine the wedding Budget
A wedding budget will determine how many people you can invite to your wedding. Planning a cheap wedding reception is not too difficult either. Planning a cheap wedding reception should also involve choosing cheap or free locations for the reception too. Try to make the wedding reception co-incide with the ceremony in some way. If you plan to have your wedding ceremony in the gazebo at the park for instance, then plan for the reception to be a barbecue or picnic style event in that same park. 
Another easy and cheap example of course, is if you have the wedding ceremony in your home. If you're planning a cheap wedding on the beach, an excellent reception idea is to have a beach party afterwards... bonfire and all. Since you know the budget, so you can start thing about the wedding dressaffordable dress that fit to your budget. The menu

Tip 4 - Decide on the wedding venue
Also if you have a beautiful wedding venue in mind then it might be easy to decide how many wedding guests can fit in this venue. Planning a cheap wedding location is not impossible. If the wedding couple loves nature, it may be free or very inexpensive to have the wedding ceremony at a local zoo, nature reserve, or flower conservatory too.

Tips 5 – Decide on the wedding decoration
Here's a great idea if you're planning a cheap wedding that will have an outdoor, picnic or barbecue style reception: buy pretty paper plates and napkins instead of using expensive china dishes.

Tip 6 - Wedding Photography
Without crimping on the costs you can still have a lavish wedding by trying to outsource the wedding photography to your friends and relatives.

For next post I will break down for you my checklist that I used to make in help my friends wedding. So, please do not hesitate to comment.
