Making and sticking to - a budget is an essential tool for ensuring that your money gets used the way you need it to; this is no different for your wedding. Your budget helps you to envision what you need for your wedding and keeps you focused and on budget. From things like wedding reception ideas, things you may forget for your wedding to hiring a wedding day coordinator. Let's see how to stay on point and on budget.
Stay On Point and Budget (With These Three Tips)
IDENTIFY NON-NEGOTIATIABLES
Once you and your partner have a set guest list, narrow down priorities and high-ticket items. For interior design types, luxury table linens may be must-haves, while foodies may obsess about their dessert table presentation. See what won't take away from your wedding day.

RESEARCH PAYS OFF
Do lots upfront to avoid any latent sticker shock. Feel confident about your decisions by comparing prices online and searching for in-person discounts in department store clearance sections and consignment shops.
DON’T BE AFRAID TO DIY
Expensive = impressive. If you can’t find the exact decor item you desire, consider making it yourself. You could save moola and create meaningful memories with a bridesmaid or finance who helps.

For example, one of our past weddings was a sweetheart theme (here), with purple and silver decor (hired for partial planning and day-of-service). In keeping with her wedding theme, she agreed to walk away from the traditional money bag and go with a geometry shape bag to keep the theme and style cohesive; a mailbox for her guest book, a money box, and a candy station with different shapes containers. Because she could not find anything similar, she decided to DIY, and it came out great. She made a three-tier money box and added her wedding colors with some bling to complete the look.
