5 Tips To An Inexpensive & Elegant Wedding

---

If money is an excuse, then stop. You can get married for as little as $50, which is the cost of the marriage license. Ask yourself, what's more important. The pomp or the circumstance? Well, definitely the circumstance! Check out these tips:

1) Shorten Your Wedding Guest List. You cannot invite everyone you've met, plus the neighbors. If you can't call off everyone's name without reading them off a paper, it's too many!

2) Save Money On Envelopes & Postage. Have your guests rsvp online or like the old fashioned way, by phone.

3) Forget About The Saturday Wedding. Have your wedding during the week or a Sunday. Yes, Sunday! It's less expensive, and you'll more likely get what you want.

4) Save Money On Flowers. If you are getting married in a church, it most likely is already decorated with plants or flowers. You don't need the whole garden. Just a nice centerpiece or a nice bushel of flowers strategically placed is an elegant touch.

5) Use Ebay And Other Online Resources. You can find great wedding dresses on Ebay and take it to your tailor to be altered to fit you. TheKnot.com is also a great way to save because they are always having sales. Check this out On Sale at The Knot Wedding Shop.
