Go Green For Your Wedding – Spiritually And Financially Rewarding

There are so many possibilities to consider from the very start of your wedding planning adventure. Green choices can often be more cost effective. A set of wedding rings for example costs an average of $7,000. Why not take a family heirloom that is never used and have it recast – it would carry more sentimental value than brand new rings.

Wedding invitations can be expensive and of course, they use paper. Many brides are choosing alternative “brief” wedding invitations to the traditional form and supplementing these with wedding websites. A good wedding website will help you communicate all your wedding details to your guests, offer online RSVP facilities and will be fun for you and your guests to use. Customized wedding websites are offered by WeddingOrg.com or visit WedMeDo.com if you would like to design your own wedding website.

Your wedding theme can flow naturally from your local environment and community. This is very meaningful and extra special for your guests, particularly if many of them are from the local community. You can opt for fresh delicious food, fresh wild flowers or flowers grown locally – fresh, in season, organic. For example, you can serve brie and pear purses, Pumpkin soup, green salads, local steak and field green salads at your October wedding in New England. Support your local community in kitting out your wedding and your wedding will be remembered and loved by your community and guests. In an age where money can buy you almost anything (if you have it!), it is refreshing to come across a wholesome wedding that has it’s community and matrimonial values at its centre.

If you are looking for help, a good book to have a look at is “Green Bride Guide” by Kate Harrison – well priced on Amazon.com.

5 Easy Ways to Save Money When Planning Your Outdoor Wedding

With the summer wedding season fast approaching and many couples looking for ways to cut back on the cost of their nuptials, outdoor weddings are enjoying resurgence in popularity.  Not only does an outdoor event drastically reduce the amount spent on church and reception hall rental, but it also opens up a multitude of other cost cutting opportunities.  With that in mind, we’ve compiled a list of five easy ways to save money when planning your outdoor wedding.

1. Choose a month other than June.  June is by far the most popular month for weddings, and with good reason; the weather is usually beautiful.  But June isn’t the only calendar month with nice weather, and by choosing an earlier spring date or a fall date, you can save a lot of money with various vendors.  Many photographers, caterers, and rental suppliers will charge a premium for weddings during the busy month of June, simply because demand is so high.  If the date will work for you and your fiancé, consider an April or October wedding instead.

2. Consider a morning wedding.  Most weddings are held in the afternoon or evening, but there’s no reason you can’t have a wedding in the morning.  Morning weddings are often a great way to cut back on expenses, for several reasons.  First, you can serve breakfast instead of dinner.  This eliminates the need to worry about expensive appetizers and alcoholic beverages.  Generally speaking, breakfast foods are less expensive anyway.  Furthermore, you may be able to negotiate some discounts with your service providers, since morning weddings aren’t that common, and you may also have an easier time booking the providers you want.

3. Choose a low cost outdoor venue like a friend or family member’s backyard.  While it’s true that outdoor weddings are generally less expensive than indoor events, some outdoor venues can be pricey to rent.  For example, if you were hoping for a very popular state park with a scenic overlook, don’t expect it to come cheap.  By holding your event in a smaller or less formal outdoor space, not only can you save a lot of money on the location, but it can also afford you more flexibility with decorating.

4. Plant some flowers!  Assuming you have chosen to hold the wedding in a space where you have some flexibility and control, consider planting some flowers a few months before the event to cut back on the florist’s expense.  Planting flowers is also a great way to ensure that you’ll have exactly the variety of colors and textures you want when your big day arrives.

5. Buy decorations that can be used in your new home after the wedding is over.  Outdoor weddings are often decorated with items that can be reused later in the couple’s new yard.  For example, consider a large wedding arbor or pergola as the backdrop for your photos or the focal point where you’ll recite your vows.  Garden trellises can also make a nice backdrop, as can large urns of flowers or planter boxes.  If you have the ability to set these items in place a month or two in advance, go ahead and do so and plant some climbing flowers and vines like morning glory or nasturtium that will grow up the structures before your event.  When the wedding is over, the items can be used to landscape your new home’s yard, and over the years, they will hold a very special sentimental value to you and your spouse.

These are just a few of many ways you can save money on outdoor wedding planning.  With a little creativity and thinking outside the box, you can plan a beautiful and memorable wedding without breaking the bank.
