Great Ideas to Help You Save!

Like you, I was all about cheap wedding ideas for my seasonal-theme wedding. And, probably like you too, the goal was to make it not seem "cheap".

We all fantasize about our wedding and when reality strikes along with the big looming cost of the whole affair, everyone has to find ways to save in a couple of different areas. And, you're in luck because cheap wedding ideas for seasonal weddings are easy to come by and it's probably easiest to:

• Save on Flowers
• Save on Cakes
• Decorations that are inexpensive and work with all seasons
• Find really great affordable favors.

Saving on Your Seasonal Cake

Regardless of the season you wed there are two simple ways to save on your cake. Despite what many people think, this isn't such a difficult endeavor!

Here are two great ideas:

• Serve cupcake wedding cakes instead of a traditional cake. They're trendy and delicious! Flavors of the season, like carrot for fall, is one great way to give it a seasonal edge. The other, more obvious, is the color of icing on your cupcakes.
• Purchase a simple white or brown cake. Then, get a few really remarkable flowers of the season - that also match your theme - and adorn your cake. You can save $100-$200 doing this yourself and it's a cinch!

Saving on Your Flowers

The best way to save on flowers for your seasonal wedding is to use flowers of the season.

• Use lots and lots of flowers of the season.
• If you're getting married in winter use daisies or some of the other cheaper flowers.
• If you love a flower that isn't in season, use it as an accent.

Flowers of the season are always less expensive that those that are out of season or exotic.

This method is one of the simplest cheap wedding ideas to implement for your seasonal wedding.

Inexpensive Favors for Your Seasonal Wedding

If you're looking for cheap wedding ideas, saving on your favors is a really simple way to do that.

There are a lot of really wonderful seasonal-theme ideas that are very affordable and depending on the custom wrapping or packaging you pick fit your seasonal theme.

The bookmarks, candy, and bottle stopper are all useful and edible favors that are useful and will be appreciated.

Saving on Decorations for Cheap Wedding Ideas

If you stick with flowers of the season and decorate your table with lovely displays this is a simple, great way to save.

The other option, which doesn't necessarily apply to just seasonal weddings, is to use candles. When using candles I always suggest going big. And, always displaying candles in groups of 1, 3, or 5.

Add a seasonal touch to your candle display with:

• Sand for summer
• Rocks for spring/summer/fall
• Leaves for fall
• Water for summer
• Fake ice or snow for winter
• Glass pebbles for winter
