I've put together this list of 5 ways to get wedding savings on your budget so you can start to putting them to use as soon as possible.

Plan Off-Peak

The first tip is probably the most obvious, but it's also very under-used. Since venues operate based on supply and demand, if you book your wedding during off-peak hours you're going to save a lot of money.

The vendor will be happy to have the income during a time where they might not have, and you'll be happy because you're paying less. It's also easy to bargain since you're really in the lead at these times, and not the vendor.

Schedule for the Afternoon

For another thing, it gives you more time to spend with the love of your life that evening. Afternoon weddings are a no-brainer if that time works for you.

Don't Get a Limo

You can save a lot of money by borrowing a friend's Town Car or other fancy vehicle. If you really want to have a limo and driver you can still save money, if you know how.

Be Creative With Flowers

If you still want to go professional, it's easy to come up with different arrangements that will be more wallet-friendly. Or, you can save a ton of money with florist wholesalers if you know where to look!

Cut the Guest List

This is a tricky one, because no one wants to leave people who are important off.
