To save money, how about asking a friend play the guitar at the ceremony and have everyone in the congregation sing along to your favourite song? It\u2019s a nice twist on traditional hymns and will be a special moment to remember.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Sharing\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Rather than serving a traditional three-course meal at your wedding, think about mixing it up a little. Serve a dish at each table for guests to share and enjoy. Think about a bespoke menu to fit your budget.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Creative cakes<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Tiered cakes continue to be popular at weddings, but it\u2019s great when couples look to do something different. Think about money saving options like cupcakes, cake pops and pick and mix stands. They\u2019re often cheaper than <a href=\"http:\/\/www.weddingbranch.co.uk\/category-page.php?par_cat_id=5&amp;child_id=222\">buying a tiered wedding cake<\/a> and can be personalised, too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Trendy transport<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Drive off with your new husband in something unusual. Think about leaving in style in a fab vintage sports car or be unexpected and save money by arriving to your wedding with your bridesmaids on classic bicycles!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Focal points<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Think about working with focal points in your wedding venue to make them part of the style or theme. One example could include filling a fireplace with large white lanterns, and making a post box out of a wishing well where guests could safely post their cards and gifts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Bright ideas<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Invest in some lighting to help transform your wedding venue from day to night. It doesn\u2019t have to be expensive, a few uplighters and coloured ceiling washes can make a huge difference. Think about some great lighting designs for my events that really add the wow factor but don\u2019t blow the budget.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">VIP guests<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Make guests feel special by re-creating the VIP areas you see in trendy clubs. Place a chilled bottle of Champagne and vodka on the tables in the reception room for guests to enjoy \u2013 it really makes an impact and can help save on the bar budget!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Music\u00a0 Have a unique wedding ceremony by incorporating different types of music.
