Wedding on a budget

Small guest list, evites, ceremony at a place that doesn't need decorations. Evening wedding with small Meal at a restaurant after.

Depending where you are in Ontario buy a dress at Gina's closet in St Jacobs. Highest price is around $650 some still have tags on them. Money all goes towards cancer charities in the area.

-have a smaller guest list
-use evites instead of paper invites
-host a daytime brunch, which is cheaper than evening dinner
-if you want an evening reception, cocktails instead of sit down dinner-Friday evening and Sundays are cheaper than Saturdays-buy a dress off the rack, buy one that's a few years old in style, or buy one used instead of a new brand name dress-hire a photographer for shorter hours instead of full day-having one photographer instead of two-hire a DJ without a fancy booth (many DJs come with barebones packages)
