Planning a wedding can be a very expensive venture. According to the most recent statistics, the average wedding can cost as much as $35,000; a price tag that many people aren’t able to drop on a single day. If you are planning a wedding on a budget, here are a few considerations you should keep in mind.

Find A Dual Purpose Venue

One of the biggest money sinks when planning your wedding is investing in multiple venues. In many cases, this happens when you have to have one location for your wedding ceremony and another for your wedding reception. To avoid this and ensure your wedding remains on budget, try to find a venue that can be utilized for both portions of your wedding.

Focus on Food

While you may want to give your wedding guests the best of the best as far as food is concerned, it may not be the best way to plan a wedding on a budget. Instead, try thinking of creative food options like a build your own sandwich station that provides lower cost alternatives. Try to think of exciting new ways to leave a lasting impression with your guests.

Shop Around For Deals

If you are planning your wedding well in advance, you should be able to spend the time needed finding the best deals from vendors. Look for local flower shops that provide seasonal options to further enhance your wedding while keeping your budget in check. Any vendors you plan on utilizing should be compared before signing a contract.
