Ways you can make money for your wedding

 

Needing to make some big bucks before the big day? You can do things such as have your wedding on a week day; some venues charge way less then versus a weekend. 

These ideas will not get you rich but can help out a bit with expenses. The good thing is these are not those home party-plan businesses where you will be spending money on kits, catalogs, inventories and recruiting. These are just fun or unique ways you may be able to earn funds that could assist with paying and tipping vendors on your big day.

First; I would recommend you sign up for a free account with Chime. There is no credit check and it is basically online banking. You can get a debit card and everything. The best part is you will avoid all those annoying fees using Chime. Chime is a wonderful way to have a separate savings solely for your wedding. This also helps keep things more organized during the payment processes when working with wedding vendors and your event planner.

How to save money on your wedding


These are some ideas for if you are looking into planning a super affordable wedding. The tips below are for if you need some frugal ideas! Happy Saving and planning!

When searching for jewelry; I have heard from former jewelry sales persons that it it cheaper to purchase jewelry at places such as EtsySam's do not have a sales person so it cuts out the middle man costs. You probably will feel less pressured to purchase or could go a site-to-store delivery. 


Cut down on décor or find a venue that does not need a lot of décor. I have visited museums that look beautiful simple or without a lot of decorations. Having your wedding on a weekday versus a weekend can sometimes save you quite a bit with venues.

Find  a newer photographer. Although I would be very picky about choosing one that has an assistant or back-up photographer. Make sure you see their portfolio. Just because one is newer does not mean their photos will be horrible. Some newer photographers charge less as they are gaining experience.
