Five Ways to Save on Wedding Flowers and Decor

by Cory Russell

Go For Impact -

Unfortunately, some elements of your special day simply go unnoticed by guests. So if your budget won’t allow you to drape your entire reception area in stylish decor pieces, relax. You can still create a noticeable impact by saving your decorating dollars for the areas that will pack the biggest punch - such as the entranceway.

See The Light -

The right lighting can transform an ordinary room into something extraordinary. If hiring a lighting technician is out of your budget, consider creating this effect with candles. Fill glass bowls with floating candles and flowers, or place a single pillar candle in a hurricane lantern for a dramatic effect. The result is romantic and elegant...and inexpensive.
