Cupid’s Advice:
Weddings may seem like they aren’t going to cost a lot, but once you add up all of the little things, it may shock you how expensive it will be. Â Cupid has some advice on how to cut costs:
1. Shop around: Each component of a wedding has a cost. Â The best way to find the lowest prices is to comparison shop. Â Don’t go with the first thing you stumble upon.
2. Do-it-yourself: Little things such as a centerpiece or a favor can cost big bucks. Â To keep expenses down, consider putting these types of things together yourself.
3. Cut your guest list: Most reception halls charge by the plate. Try to keep your guest list as short as possible by only inviting your close friends and family.
