A marriage can drain finances faster than thoughtless biddings in option market. It is a time when price are hitting high and the source of income are limited. With the big day looming forebodingly you would be looking at ways to have a fabulous wedding but relatively at a reasonable budget. Let us take a look at some fabulous marriage tips that will help you in cutting corners without making any sacrifice to the style.

2 In case you are vegetarian then you can keep a vegetarian menu for all the wedding related ceremony.
 

3 In marriage there are numerous functions, what we forget to notice is the fact that with each function the cost goes up significantly. There are few ceremonies that can be combined together like Mehendi & Sangeet. Similarly, wedding can be followed by reception at the same venue.

4 If you want to host different functions then keep wedding small then follow it with a grand reception.

5 Don’t buy very expensive exclusive invitation cards rather go for good quality budget wedding invites.

6 If you have a friend or cousin who is a music enthusiast and has got good knowledge of different genres then make him the disc jockey for the Sangeet. This will save you from hiring DJ. Moreover, your friend is going to thank you for the wonderful opportunity.
