That's why certain details still matter too lol like lots of people would take pictures of the tables if they look good. Photography is important depending what kind of wedding your going for, you cant spend a bunch on detail and not have a good photographer other wise what the point.
@@MelissaBrowneIsZenn I think photography is important no matter what theme your wedding is. You want a professional who knows how to work angles and lighting to their advantage so when you get them back everything looks stunning. I think decorating tables can be done fairly cheaply unless you want HUGE floral arrangements at each one. But not every cheap photographer is going to know what they're doing.
As someone who's wedding pics turned out VERY bad. Friend offered for free.... definately hire someone who has proof they know what their doing. It still makes me sad to not have hardly any pictures and the ones I have are BAAAD!
I’ve literally watched over 50 RUclips videos on how to save money with weddings and this is the first one that I’ve actually got so many tips and tricks from!
We got married for around $1000. Rented my dress, hubs wore his dress uniform, flowers from the grocery store, printed our own invitations, Cake was a gift from my bestie. It was small & perfect!
Cake hack! Literally don't mention it's for a wedding (the quote went from 250 to almost 700), go with an "unconventional" cake (we're using Nothing Bundt Cakes)
By far, the absolute best wedding advice I have found on the internet. Thank you, Becky. Thank you so much for your research, tips, organized presentation, and quick, precise, and unapologetic delivery. Thank you for getting right to the subject and sticking to it, not talking excessively about your own wedding, or your outfit today, or fussing over the lighting so you look better. (Some of these vloggers are so unbelievably vain!) You are a sparkling gem in a sea of rhinestones and this video was an incredibly refreshing find. Exactly what I needed, you have saved my wedding. Thank you a million times plus infinity! - Joetta
Awesome hacks!! I’m on a VERY tight budget. What ever I can do to make our day special, without going into debt is my goal! But above all else, we want to have a fun day with our friends and family! I just bought my dress today. It’s a $3,000 dress, and I got it for $140!!!!! Talk about a HUGE savings!!!
with flowers just go to Aldi the morning before, pick your favorite ones, trim and deleaf the stems keep in a bucket of water in a cool corner over night, then in the morning get one of your hands on friend to wrap wire around the stems then do the same with a piece of £1 ribbon off the market and leave the tails long, The wire stops it working it's way loose as it gets passed around during the day, if you are creative you could find a suitable vase in a charity shop and use your flowers for the top table center piece and even use your bridemaids ones for on the other tables.have a wonderful life together.x
one tip for favors is get little tulle bags or make your own and fill with birdseed and tie with a ribbon. it was a hit at my wedding. you can rent a food truck in town for food and eat outside which is a big trend. and she's right about the W word don't use it just say party. you can also buy two walmart cakes and stack them up. my sister did that. buy used party supplies from friends they have alot of as long as the colors match it doesn't matter and keep your cups and plates simple. no one cares what design is on the plate, trust me.
Thoes dresses are normally so cheap because of unethical conditions and unsustainable production... why not a second hand dress for the bride? Thats how i got mine; 4€
I'm always amazed that more people don't opt for secondhand clothing in general. In addition to your point, it's like a fourth to a tenth the cost, and you can find some excellent things. Plus it's essentially recycling/reducing consumption
I found my bridesmaids dress second hand at a store we have in america called goodwill,it was $7 usd.its a gorgeous olive green that's gonna go so well with my haunted forest wedding.and my veil I found at another thrift store for about the same price,once I dye it the way I want and add the petals around the bottom like I want I think it MIGHT cost me $20,which is literally 1/10th of the price of the similar ones I found online.
Serve cupcakes on tiered serving trays as the wedding cake. The tiered trays could be a DIY project & use as part of the decoration or as a center piece. Or a semi fake wedding cake. Only the top tier of the cake is really. The other layers are frosted Styrofoam & serves the guess sheet cakes. It's much cheaper.
Happy TX what is the point of pretending to have a big fake cake?! You only need a big cake if you have a lot of people, and if you have a lot of people and not enough cake for them all.... THAT is a big no no. In my country, that wedding would be talked about for ages, and not in a good way. Better to serve cheap cake in quantity. There is nothing worse than pretensions.
@@xz3024 The fake cakes are gorgeous, have a cutout for "cake cutting" and the pictures are STUNNING!!! This is what we plan on doing and serving guests sheet cakes...3 Tier cakes can seriously cost thousands, why bother when you can fake it for under $100??? The cake cutting is symbolic and a memory preserved in time...Sorry, you don't like it but please quit with the judgment of others who do!!!
try groupon for photographers too, we got ours with 2 photographers for the whole day with all the images digitally and 10 prints for £200. ask venues about DJs, they often recommend some and they usually charge very small amounts too
I got married 12 years ago and We didn’t have a huge wedding and didn’t spend loads but wish I’d done a lot more of the stuff myself. A friend of mine is a beautician and hairdresser so as my wedding gift she did my hair and makeup.If anyone you know is in a trade that you can use for you wedding then rope them in. I helped a friend plan her wedding and we used Pinterest for ideas. We made room decorations, table decorations the lot. Saved money and made it unique. X
Good for Becky for posting this I had a wedding on a shoestring it was so exciting doing all the planning on saving reducing costs etc I loved it . No one remembers silly little favours etc
This video is awesome! As soon as I’m engaged, hopefully not too long! I’ll be re watching for some ideas. I’ve been to so many weddings recently that they have obviously spent 20k+ on and I really don’t want to do that. We’ve just bought our house so all our money is going on that! Thanks Becky! C
Your very smart most Girls want their future Husband to spend like 25K or more on Wedding and they don't think about the future such as buying a House or having money left over just case thet choose to have kids
This must be one of the best budget wedding videos that I've seen so far! Thanks for putting this together. I'd rather use my money on a house rather than the wedding so this is going to come in handy!
My little sister got married on a tiny budget also.. she decided they couldn’t afford a sit down dinner so decided to opt for an afternoon tea style meal. She also borrowed a dress from a lovely work colleague. As a wedding gift for her, I paid for her and her hubby to stay at the venue they got married at and for all the bridesmaids to get their nails and makeup done. It turned out to be an amazing day!
I'm getting married June 2020!!!! i have my dress picked out i know what theme i like i know which venues i want, i just need to make a wedding planner
My wedding we did under 500. I made 4 big pots of spaghetti and meatballs, wedding cake cost $10 (cake mix and frosting) dress was $100 from China his tux was $70 rent and the rest into blah blah but it was very good
ryt1995 around 10 years ago my mom bought one on eBay and it’s still in such good condition I’m wearing it for mine :) of course quality’s changed since but I’ve still had some good results with them. Most common issues could be fixed like sheer fabric or threads. Just wear a slip
This was amazing, I just watched it for fun. I am getting married in 3 months but it’s going to be traditional pakistani wedding with series of events on multiple days. For sure I was going to use the makeup hack as I can’t afford to have makeup artist everyday. I loved ever single tip. You seemed so passionate and did good research. Thank you so much very helpful video. Just subscribe❤️❤️
We call it a potluck in the american south,where everyone brings their own dish.thats what I'm doing for my wedding.these are a lot of really great ideas!
I'm on a budget too, and it's been really helping me to use silk flowers from the craft store. They have floral sales a lot, and I got $300 worth of flowers from Michaels for $100, just because it was after Christmas and before spring and their entire stock was on sale. Then I can arrange them ahead of time and be less stressed out. Also, I got these beautiful gold sandals that I plan to wear on my wedding day (I'm tall and my groom is short so heels aren't an option) from Payless Shoes for half price when the location near me closed down.
@@Ratisha_Official I'm not saying $ and £ symbols are the same. Just saying that some countries uses $ as a "money symbol" rather than a dollar symbol. In my country for example, we don't have a specific symbol for our currency so whenever we need a symbol for money(like say in a comic or something), the $ symbol is the one that gets used. That's all. Otherwise I'm all for people using the correct ones.
I had a Disney themed wedding so we had figurines in the tables (which we already owned) & jam jar candles that smelled of Disneyland (donuts & candy floss). We had burgers & hotdogs in the evening. We were on a tight budget & still had a great day.
Great video....I learned so much and I'm so glad I found it! I'm an event planner myself and was also shocked at how these wedding venues & vendors are robbing people! My hope is that people will learn to get smarter at planning their weddings cheaper, this way the wedding industry vendors are FORCED to lower their ridiculous prices! I will be sharing this with everyone I know... Also try Ali Express for wedding dresses, flowers, favours, decorations etc... Shipping takes a while b/c the items are coming from over seas, so plan ahead and SAVE SAVE SAVE!!! Thank you for posting!
This was so, so helpful! There's some things I personally don't want to save on (photographer, flowers) but some things I just don't care so much about. I think I will save on invitations, favours and cake (doing cupcakes and macarons instead).
Brilliant video. We did our wedding on a budget for £2500 and it was a lovely day. I didn't feel like we missed out on anything, we were just very lucky to have talented family and friends who helped out a lot, for example my mum made the cake, a friend decorated the venue with decorations from her wedding mixed in with some different bits we bough online, my husband's aunty is a florist and did the flowers as her gift, etc. We also did our honeymoon through top secret hotels on lastminute.com and stayed in a beautiful hotel.
For the wedding planner subject, you can also look for new wedding planners that are looking for more experience. Most wedding planner starting out will be kind enough to plan a wedding at a lower cost or for free in exchange for credit for planning the wedding. This helps them build their brand/blog/ platform. Look for the planners who offer planning services in exchange for experience, Set up an appointment w/ the planner to see which events they have planned in the past, hire them a few months before your wedding to help you out! Offer them a meal and dessert for their wonderful support.
Yes Airbnb is amazing to have a wedding! Fraction of the price compared to paying for a venue. HOWEVER- the host CAN cancel whenever they’d like. Have a backup definitely. I’m renting out a lake house for my micro-wedding. & if the worst should happen and my host cancels I’ll be having my wedding on my moms backyard. We’re not inviting tons of people so if the venue changes we can easily tell everyone in person. Xx
For everyone doing a budget wedding please refrain from going diy haywire and buying pounds and pouds of plastic gems, ribbons, shimmer and all that plastic stuff for your wedding. Those scattered "gems and beads", sparkled mason jars and gold spray painted bottles look horrifyingly tacky and are also just a way of creating more trash. Don't fall into the trap of over decorating. A few, more natural or actually useful reusable accessories (ex: use old mason jars or jam jars for vases, but keep them plain and keep the lids 'cause you can actually reuse them after that way, opt for pieces of fabric bunched or tied artfully that can be used after for your house or other gatherings as tablecloths or whatnot, a few branches or pieces of greenery picked off the ground in a local wild area) with an overall more minimalist concept make any event look much more though out (instead of a bunch of crap thrown together) and classy; plus you save money and trash! Think about it. Please don't use plastic glitter... literally the worst thing ever invented.
Please I NEED the link to that first wedding dress. Were getting married in 2020 and I’ve literally and fell in love with that dress 😩 please if anyone has the link to that dress I would be so so so grateful please
Nobody remembers the wedding cake? Not true. Everybody remembers if it's memorable. And what everybody remembers for sure is the food. We want food, lots of food :)
My summer wedding dress was from Asos. The ChiChi creamy strapless one thats on sale now. Feeling like a princess for one(!!) day does really not have to cost a fortune! :D And my husbands suit was from H&M.
April 2020 here, congrats! I'm planning on getting my dress from jjshouse.com, I was searching youtube for real reviews on the website when I came across this with more helpful info
My wedding was no where nr £30,000 and was actually under £5000 including spa weekend hen do. But I was lucky, the church I was a member at let me have the church and hall for free, the pastor gave me her services for free as a wedding gift, my cousin is a florist so my cousins whole family paid for the flowers. Old friends of ours made a wedding cake as a gift. My two piece wedding dress was handmade by another friend material cost £80. Most expensive things were the alcohol, photography and wedding album and we had a barn dance as I had a Jane Austen style dress. We had a hot food buffet and we used my parents car to get to the church. And I had a fabulous day, our honeymoons ( yes we had two) were gifted a UK one from my parents and my hubbys friends had an apartment in Tenerife and wanted us to stay there. My ring is white gold and came from Argos at £50. My engagement ring was £150. Wish I could share photos on here xx
That's great for you but most people do not have so many people who will give them so many things for free. Its not really an accomplishment when so much was gifted.
My wedding was like this, his family church, did everything, Organ player, flowers, ushering and our side did flowers(brother) cake Nanna, Me, dad and Mum, school mate did hair and nails(pay back for being her guinepig)it was great
Mine was about 500 pounds. We married in a lighthouse for free and we had a 2 room honeymoon suite. We used the sitting area for the reception. My dress was from holyclothing handmade 50 pounds, veil was given to me , accessories where used, silk flowers on Amazon and he already had the suit, invitations off ebay.. Had a small 40 pound cake and a fancy Costco sheet cake for 15pounds
With jewellery, don’t be scared to go into antique shops.. the friendly ones in your local high street will probably surprise you with the inexpensiveness! The cost of jewellery is held in the first sale, you’re buying the brand and the cost of shelf space in a high street retailer. Go in to the little independents and explain to them what you’re looking for and you’ll likely get something with a story and a bit different. It’s much better for the environment too!
Our wedding cake was an Italian cream cake decorated with flowers. We had a pool party wedding reception. Bring the kids no problem. It's too hot in Texas to get dressed up in the summer. Thanks
My sister is making my cake :) I didnt plan the decorations I am either wearing my moms dress or buying one i found online for 150 canadian dollars. I am hoping my mom is good at hair, my sister is good at makeup and for shoes I am going to buy any shoes even if they are Ardennes shoes. Planning on having less then 100 people there want it in a backyard or I know which hall and church. I have a lot to figure out lol but I also have tons of time

Photography is one thing I wouldn't skimp on. Photos last forever and if they turn out bad it could put a damper on everything.
That's why certain details still matter too lol like lots of people would take pictures of the tables if they look good. Photography is important depending what kind of wedding your going for, you cant spend a bunch on detail and not have a good photographer other wise what the point.

For some people, it’s not skimping if you literally don’t have over $1000 just for the photography alone...
True
I’ve literally watched over 50 RUclips videos on how to save money with weddings and this is the first one that I’ve actually got so many tips and tricks from!
I no righ
I no right👏
I no right
I 100% AGREE!!! True value here ❤️
We got married for around $1000. Rented my dress, hubs wore his dress uniform, flowers from the grocery store, printed our own invitations, Cake was a gift from my bestie. It was small & perfect!
Small and simple is the way to go. Save that money for a house. House more important.
Where did you rent your dress
How many people?
I looked for a dress rental place, and couldn’t find one. What an awesome idea for a new business!!
Kimberly Holt god bless you with long years in happiness
Cake hack! Literally don't mention it's for a wedding (the quote went from 250 to almost 700), go with an "unconventional" cake (we're using Nothing Bundt Cakes)
I adore Nothing Bundt cakes!!!
We are too. It's delicious and affordable!
I used business cards for my invitations its much cheaper got about 100 for $17.00
Alexandria King omg genius
Alexandria King yo you jus changed my life
Details, details please!!
Definitely gonna do this
Vistaprint.com
You can also do post cards for less than $50 for like 250. My sister paid a little more and got some of their invitations.
*Great tips, but the clothes part only works if you are very standard sizing and shape wise.*
That's not true. A lot of online sites do your measurements.

with flowers just go to Aldi the morning before, pick your favorite ones, trim and deleaf the stems keep in a bucket of water in a cool corner over night, then in the morning get one of your hands on friend to wrap wire around the stems then do the same with a piece of £1 ribbon off the market and leave the tails long, The wire stops it working it's way loose as it gets passed around during the day, if you are creative you could find a suitable vase in a charity shop and use your flowers for the top table center piece and even use your bridemaids ones for on the other tables.have a wonderful life together.x
one tip for favors is get little tulle bags or make your own and fill with birdseed and tie with a ribbon. it was a hit at my wedding. you can rent a food truck in town for food and eat outside which is a big trend. and she's right about the W word don't use it just say party. you can also buy two walmart cakes and stack them up. my sister did that. buy used party supplies from friends they have alot of as long as the colors match it doesn't matter and keep your cups and plates simple. no one cares what design is on the plate, trust me.
Thoes dresses are normally so cheap because of unethical conditions and unsustainable production... why not a second hand dress for the bride? Thats how i got mine; 4€
I'm always amazed that more people don't opt for secondhand clothing in general. In addition to your point, it's like a fourth to a tenth the cost, and you can find some excellent things. Plus it's essentially recycling/reducing consumption
Or make your own if you can sew...
I found my bridesmaids dress second hand at a store we have in america called goodwill,it was $7 usd.its a gorgeous olive green that's gonna go so well with my haunted forest wedding.and my veil I found at another thrift store for about the same price,once I dye it the way I want and add the petals around the bottom like I want I think it MIGHT cost me $20,which is literally 1/10th of the price of the similar ones I found online.

I realized the only thing I really looked forward to with a wedding were the photos, so I will invest in a photoshoot (and dress) and that's about it.
Same!

Why use $ symbol when you're in UK?
Suzie Barrett I’m thinking the same thing. She’s British too. And she actually says pounds in the video not dollars!
Probably to get more views its 1350 ish usd
The dollar symbol are often used in differemt countries as just a "money symbol".

Aww that's a Beautiful themed for wedding 😍💫💖
Themes like this can so easily end up in "That's it, I'm wedding shaming" but when they are done right it's so magical.
Some good ideas. What do you do with all that stuff after the wedding?
Jasmin Drace you could sell it or keep it and put it to other uses

Those scattered "gems and beads", sparkled mason jars and gold spray painted bottles look horrifyingly tacky and are also just a way of creating more trash. Don't fall into the trap of over decorating. A few, more natural or actually useful reusable accessories (ex: use old mason jars or jam jars for vases, but keep them plain and keep the lids 'cause you can actually reuse them after that way, opt for pieces of fabric bunched or tied artfully that can be used after for your house or other gatherings as tablecloths or whatnot, a few branches or pieces of greenery picked off the ground in a local wild area) with an overall more minimalist concept make any event look much more though out (instead of a bunch of crap thrown together) and classy; plus you save money and trash! Think about it. Please don't use plastic glitter... literally the worst thing ever invented.

The makeup tip is good, but for goodness sakes either give it a test run, or make sure you know exactly what you're getting
My wedding was no where nr £30,000 and was actually under £5000 including spa weekend hen do. But I was lucky, the church I was a member at let me have the church and hall for free, the pastor gave me her services for free as a wedding gift, my cousin is a florist so my cousins whole family paid for the flowers. Old friends of ours made a wedding cake as a gift. My two piece wedding dress was handmade by another friend material cost £80. Most expensive things were the alcohol, photography and wedding album and we had a barn dance as I had a Jane Austen style dress. We had a hot food buffet and we used my parents car to get to the church. And I had a fabulous day, our honeymoons ( yes we had two) were gifted a UK one from my parents and my hubbys friends had an apartment in Tenerife and wanted us to stay there. My ring is white gold and came from Argos at £50. My engagement ring was £150. Wish I could share photos on here xx
That's great for you but most people do not have so many people who will give them so many things for free. Its not really an accomplishment when so much was gifted.
My wedding was like this, his family church, did everything, Organ player, flowers, ushering and our side did flowers(brother) cake Nanna, Me, dad and Mum, school mate did hair and nails(pay back for being her guinepig)it was great
Mine was about 500 pounds. We married in a lighthouse for free and we had a 2 room honeymoon suite. We used the sitting area for the reception. My dress was from holyclothing handmade 50 pounds, veil was given to me , accessories where used, silk flowers on Amazon and he already had the suit, invitations off ebay.. Had a small 40 pound cake and a fancy Costco sheet cake for 15pounds
isabel Geddes congratulations! Sounds so amazing...a lighthouse wedding and a tiny budget. I love it!! Many blessings to you and your husband 😀
Wedding!! Love to see your reaction x
Such awesome ideas
Have people bring led Christmas lights.
I want to use that vacation website just for travel in general. Thanks for the tip!
Some very nice ideas
With jewellery, don’t be scared to go into antique shops.. the friendly ones in your local high street will probably surprise you with the inexpensiveness! The cost of jewellery is held in the first sale, you’re buying the brand and the cost of shelf space in a high street retailer. Go in to the little independents and explain to them what you’re looking for and you’ll likely get something with a story and a bit different. It’s much better for the environment too!
If you can sew, sew infinity style dresses for the bridesmaids
Our wedding cake was an Italian cream cake decorated with flowers. We had a pool party wedding reception. Bring the kids no problem. It's too hot in Texas to get dressed up in the summer. Thanks
So if you say it’s a “wedding” they raise the price 😱?
It's not the wedding, it's the marriage. I made my dress and it was $50 for the licence and $75. for the judge. There done.
Some people want and care about both!!! It's fine that was good for you but people watching this video want more...
nancy charlotte WINNING!!! Best way to do it!!! 💯
fiverr is fantastic! i've used it a few times with great success.
Bride book is amazing
My girlfriend and I spent $3000 on our wedding, and my family helped so much!

Thank you so much for those tips!!
Wedding - for reaction video pls.

Got my wedding shoes in primark for £10 😍 and I’m loving it so much
My sister is making my cake :) I didnt plan the decorations I am either wearing my moms dress or buying one i found online for 150 canadian dollars. I am hoping my mom is good at hair, my sister is good at makeup and for shoes I am going to buy any shoes even if they are Ardennes shoes. Planning on having less then 100 people there want it in a backyard or I know which hall and church. I have a lot to figure out lol but I also have tons of time
Omg how are those dresses so cheap! :O That is amazing. And they looked really pretty.
Thanks so much
