If you are trying to stay on a tight wedding budget, you can do away with loads of things that no one will even notice. And you'll be just as married at the end.
1.Save the Dates. Spread the word through word of mouth and save the printing and postage for these babies. You'll also have some flexibility with your guest list when you actually do start to invite people.
2. Programs. In less you have an extremely complicated ceremony, or a giant bridal party that nobody knows, you don't need these. They will be sitting on the seats when everybody leaves the ceremony space.
3. Bubbles. Highly overrated. No one remembers to use them.
4. Adorable signs that say "here comes the bride", "last chance to run", or, well, pretty much anything.
5. Limousines. If you're having your ceremony and reception at the same place, you absolutely do not need them.
6. Complex, expensive invitations to the people you want to have in your bridal party. Just ask them.
6. Adorable sequined hoodies for your bridal party. They will never wear them again.
7. Champagne for the toast, unless you really love champagne. People can toast with whatever they happen to have in their hand at the time, and most people can tell good champagne from bad champagne.
8. Wedding favors of any type. You are hosting an expensive, gorgeous party with food, drinks, entertainment, and hopefully, and inspiring ceremony. That is your present to your guests. An engraved bottle opener with your names and wedding date on it will never see the light of day. It'll live in the drawer forever.
9. Gift bags for out-of-towners. See number eight.
10. Anything personalized:cocktail napkins, matches, pens, ribbon wands, shot glasses, chocolate bars cake servers, champagne glasses. Trust me, no one notices.
11. Elaborate baskets for the ladies and men's room. BONUS!)
