Tips on Cutting Costs

Simple Arrangements: A simple rose or carnation in an inexpensive vase on your guests' tables will make a beautiful centerpiece. Most Planners or Florists will even rent vases which can help reduce the cost of your centerpiece.

Silk Flowers: You will have to literally touch flowers to determine if they are real. Silk flowers can be one of the nicest flowers that resemble real flowers. You can use them on the pews or in places that your guests can view them from a distance.

Your Garden: Try growing your own flowers. Visit your local Depot store and ask about growing your flowers. You will be surprised how simple it is to grow your very own flowers for your wedding.

Seasonal Flowers: When working with your planner or florist, ask which flowers will be in season on your wedding date. Seasonal flowers will be less expensive than flowers that are out of season.

Edible Centerpieces: If your centerpieces are edible, you can save on flowers. Use fresh strawberries or apples dipped in chocolate. The centerpieces on your guests table can be used as a dessert or a take home snack for your guests.

Bouquet Option: Most Brides feel it's a must to purchase an expensive bridal bouquet. Instead of spending hundreds, use a dozen long-stemmed roses, carnations or gardenias. You can purchase ribbons that match your flowers or your wedding color to tie around your flowers.  

Invitations: Always double check your guest lists to delete names of guests you know are unable to attend. If you know for sure they are unable to attend your wedding, it's not necessary to send them a save the date. Ofcourse if you receive a gift, a thank you note should be sent. There are many great online wedding stationery stores. One of my favorite for the cost friendly bride is, Vista Printwhich offers great deals on free shipping and are alot less expensive. 

Favors: At Infinite Wedding Block, we are also resellers of favors. We have hand picked favors we feel are both inexpensive and stunning for our Brides to choose from while planning their wedding. There are a lot of crafty brides, but sometimes it's worth the cost to have your favors shipped to your door with nothing to do. Visit Infinite Wedding Block which offers weekly deals, discounts and free shipping. Follow us on twitter to immediately know when you can save. Twitter

Five Ways to Save Money on your Wedding

Green Plantable Favors sold at http://www.infiniteweddingblock.com

1. Change the Day, Time or Month of your Wedding.

Saturdays at anytime are one of the biggest wedding days. If you want to save money on reception costs, getting married on a Sunday during brunch or lunch instead could save you a few extra bucks. Also, keep in mind, you have more negotiating power when your getting married in an off peak wedding season.

2. Why pay for Postage.

Instead of asking your guests to RSVP by Mail, ask them to RSVP by e-mail or a quick phone call. Saves everyone the effort and saves you money on postage.

3. Small to Medium Guest List.

Yes we all have friends that hear we are getting married and decide to call us after 10 years. Hey, we should not feel obligated to invite the world or our long lost friends. Your wedding should be a place of joy and happiness with your closest friends and family that love you dearly. If you don't speak to someone regularly, 2-3 years, then leave them off your guest list. This reduces your invitation, favors and reception costs.

4. Bridal Gowns.

I refer Brides to immediately put their name on the mailing lists of Bridal Salons or sign up on Designer websites. This will provide you updates on Sales and allow you a chance to print out coupons as well. You can also look on EBay for Gowns. I know, but you will be surprised to see the wedding gowns of women who may have changed their minds on their dresses without one wear of it. This is guaranteed to save you hundreds instead of walking in a Bridal Store and picking up your dream wedding dress.

5. Stick to your Budget.

You know your income and you know what you can afford. Remember, you have to live after your big day and it's only going to be you and your spouse when the lights go off. When making a budget, be fair with your estimate and be fair to yourself. Always be prepared to negotiate below your actual budget for each venue to make sure you are placing yourself with enough room to have extras.
