Budget wedding planning tips
Making plans for a grand wedding on a tight budget? Do not fret - your big day can still be stunning without breaking the bank. Here are some practical budget wedding planning tips under ₹5 lakhs.
1) Focus on what matters
Begin with a checklist of what you want - be it a grand venue, professional photography, or designer outfits. Allocate more budget to those and reduce on less important ones.
2) Select an off-season wedding date
Weddings held between March and August or on weekdays generally cost less owing to reduced demand. Venues, caterers, and decorators are even more negotiable during such periods.
3) Book a budget-friendly venue
In place of an expensive banquet hall or destination resort, ensure you consider community halls, home lawns or open-air spaces in local clubs. These help cut cost considerably and give you creative independence with decoration.
4) Go minimal on guest list
The more guests, higher is the cost. Make sure you keep your guest list reasonable to save on food, seating and return gift costs while still creating a memorable event.
5) Rent, avoid buying
Outfits, jewellery, and décor items can be rented for a fraction of their retail cost. This is a practical and budget-friendly way to remain stylish without overspending.
6) If required, opt for a wedding loan
If you are short of funds, a wedding loan or marriage loan can help cover planned expenses without financial stress. Go for an affordable wedding planning personal loan like the FIRSTmoney Smart Personal Loan from IDFC FIRST Bank to support your big day.
FIRSTmoney from IDFC FIRST Bank offers a smooth, digital, and affordable loan process to support your celebration without compromise. Plan smart, stay stress-free, and say “I do” to financial peace of mind.
