How to plan a wedding without a planner?

Hi! I just had a few questions. I have been looking all over the internet for a guide on how to plan a wedding. I cannot afford a wedding planner so I’m taking a second route which would be to do it myself. I wanted to know when I would have to pay for the booking of church and reception, cake, DJ, flowers, etc…

I only have 3 brides maids and my dress is very inexpensive. So how would I go about planning a nice but inexpensive wedding? I know that the average wedding today is over 20,000 dollars but I am on an extremely tight budget! Help?

Thanks in advance!

Honey my wedding was only about 3,000 dollars if that! The key to it all is to shop around! It’s time consuming, but worth it. If there are VFW (Veterans of Foreign Wars)clubs where you live, you should try to rent one of these places because they are only like $200.00 to rent, but it depends on the size of Hall you need. The Church and a Reception Hall should be reserved a year in advance. If you need a limo, six months in advance. The cake, DJ., Flowers, Tuxedos, and someone to decorate your Reception hall, about four months in advance. I did everything myself also. I hope this helps. The food, for my wedding, my dad cooked all the food and had it served at the hall, but if you need a caterer, reserve at least a year in advance also.

First, I would suggest that you order your credit report and check your credit score first so that you can give yourself a budget to work on. You can efficiently plan your wedding if you make it an intimate event. In this way, you could easily ask the help of your family and friends. If you have family members who know how to cook, ask them if they could cater your event. If you have friends who can help you with the design of your reception, ask them if they could help you decorate your place. Moreover, always ask for packages or discounts when you inquire about reception venues so that you can avail of the best deals. Planning a wedding yourself might sound exhausting but the tips listed in the below given article will help you out a lot:
