The more you can save on necessities for the reception,
the more you will be able to allot to the items you
won’t want to skimp on, like the wedding photographer
or the wedding cake.
Creating beautiful environments for wedding receptions
on a budget can be quite simple, according to wedding
and reception planning experts.
As you strive to give each element of the wedding reception,
from centerpieces to personalized wedding favors, a
thoughtful personal touch, you can actually save money
while creating memorable aspects that will be cherished
through the years. Following are a few tips from experts
that can help you save money and make the event spectacular.
Silk Flowers Allow You To Save On Cost Of Flowers
For either indoor or outdoor wedding receptions, flowers
are an important part of creating a magical and romantic
tone. One way to economize, but still enjoy the effect
of flowers, is to choose from the many beautiful, realistic
silk flowers that are abundantly available.
One clever trick is to add silk flowers into arrangements
of fresh flowers, helping to keep the floral costs down
while still beautifying the reception venue. Plus, the
newlyweds can use the silk flowers in their new home
as a beautiful reminder of their special day.
Rose Petals Along The Entrance Pathway
For something unique and fun, you can create a dramatic
entrance to a wedding reception by simply lining the
entrance pathway with sweet-smelling rose petals. Your
guests will immediately be in a jovial mood if you rent
a bubble machine which will add extra fun and magic
to the ambiance of the event.
Renting a reception tent is a good way to economize
for wedding receptions and you can easily increase the
romance factor by getting some nice sheer fabric and
quality wide ribbon which you can use to drape around
the perimeter of the canopy. You can also incorporate
small white lights and wrap the tent supports or make
a swag for the entryway that will add to the romantic
feel.
A Personal Memento
Hand-making keepsakes to give out during wedding receptions
is a trend that is growing and one that is helping to
bring down costs while creating a very personal memento.
You can make unique thank you cards for your bridesmaids
by embellishing simple note cards with the wedding theme
colors and meaningful trinkets that can be found at
a craft store. Combined with a heartfelt personal note,
it will be something your bridesmaids are likely to
cherish for many years.

More Romantic Wedding Facts....
I’m getting married, should I ask my wedding party to give a speech?
That is a tough question. It comes down to whether
or not you intend to micromanage everything in the wedding. Speeches,
much like toasts, should be voluntary. No one wants to be forced to give
a speech they do not truly mean.
Making someone give a speech is a step away from writing
the speech yourself and having them read it aloud. It
is better for everyone if the members of the wedding
party wish to do a speech because it means that they
truly believe in the words they are saying. It should
not be about a formality but instead a blessing on the
future of the bride and groom.
If you have a real fear that no one will give a speech,
you may want to evaluate who is in your wedding party.
The wedding party should consist of people who love
you and wish you the best. If no one in the party can
or will do that on their own, you wouldn’t want them
to be a part of your special day anyway.
The exception to this is if everyone suffers from severe
stage fright or agoraphobia. The chances of that are
pretty small.
