Bride on a budget?
Do you know someone who can make a wedding cake?
Get family and friends to help pitch in with the catering
Consider "off the peg" wedding dresses
Consider having your ceremony and reception in the same venue, as most do 'packages' to include meal, decorations etc
Design and make your own wedding stationery
Book suppliers as much in advance as possible, as most will freeze prices if deposit is paid early
Be aware of hidden costs, i.e. corkage charges in the hotel/reception
