FINAL WEDDING SAVING BLOG: Less than 3 months to go!
Happy Sunday Readers! Welcome to the final wedding savings blog!
Today I'll be sharing some final tips on areas I've saved money in. We are 3 months away from the big day and we are still on budget and don't plan on going over!
1) Make Up Bundles
Many of us forget how expensive it can be to outsource a make up artist for your special day. A great tip is to ensure you and all your bridesmaid use the same make up artist instead of getting different artists. You'll save on the travel fees that come with your make up artist travelling to your venue and most make up artists will give discounts the more individuals you book with them. All in all, try your best to find one makeup artist you love and work with them to get a discount!
2) Small Businesses
Weddings are a great way to support small businesses. I utilized a small business for my bridesmaid proposals and gifts! Sites such as Etsy include multiple vendors and small businesses who provide a lot of custom work (this is especially great for weddings) and this grants you the chance to support individuals who don't get bulk orders on a daily basis.
3) Facebook Groups
Head over to Facebook and search weddings in the group section of the app. Here you'll find some many group in your area within individuals who provide different services for weddings (photographers, catering services) and much more. You'll also find individuals who recently had their wedding and are selling items such as (their welcome signs and/or their gift boxes). The list of things on Facebook wedding groups is extremely impressive and they are often priced lower than most major stores.
I hope this helps you if you are planning your wedding soon & I hope you enjoyed the wedding series!
