With the way the economy is, it’s harder then ever to plan a wedding within a budget. Never mind one that’s themed. Don’t stress though, I have a few tips for you that will hopefully get you in the right direction.

Tip # 1 : Is your wedding going to be during a certain season? Look at the colors that are complimentary of the season and ask yourself if you could incorporate that into your chosen theme.  If your having a western themed wedding like my fiance and I, then leaves and the various colors are a great little decor. Our wedding happens to be in September, and luckily for us his mom is going to let us borrow her decorations for the season.

Tip # 2  : If your not going to be wearing a dress, or if your wedding party isn’t, then see if they already have jeans that will fit them and the wedding! My fiance and I are having all the girls wear their own jeans, at least that’s what we’re hoping. We’ll provide the shirts, and for the guys, we’ll provide the jeans (already have) and the shirts (already have). If you don’t, here’s a tip I’m sure you’ve seen all over the internet : Salvation Army! See if there’s a dress that you could spruce up, or even fabric material, are you a seamstress? Can you sew? Use that for your own advantages

Tip # 3 : Can your mama bake? What about his mama? Get them to do the cake, sure you want it to be special, but what’s more special then a cake your mother or future mother in law has made? What about granny?

Tip # 4 : Cook your own food. It saves a lot in the long run, and you can even have a pot luck, have your guests bring their favorite dish!

Tip # 5 : Invitations, Invitations, Invitations. Make your own, you can always go to WalMart and get kits, even look for templates online!

Well that’s all the tips I have for you right now. I hope that it works for you! Congratulations!
