Case Study: Emily and David’s Budget-Friendly Austin Wedding

1. Venue Selection

Emily and David chose the Texas Federation of Women’s Clubs Mansion, a historic Georgian-style mansion in Austin. The rental fee was $1,500, which included tables and chairs, reducing the need for additional rentals. 

2. Guest List

To maintain an intimate atmosphere and manage expenses, they limited their guest list to 50 close friends and family members. Reducing the guest count helps lower costs related to catering, invitations, and favors.

3. Catering

Instead of a formal sit-down dinner, the couple opted for a buffet-style meal provided by Scholz Garten, the oldest restaurant in Texas. The BBQ plates started at $9.50 per person, totaling approximately $475 for 50 guests. Choosing a local eatery with affordable options helped them stay within budget. 

4. Attire

Emily found her wedding dress at a sample sale for $250, and David purchased a suit on sale for $150. Exploring sales and second-hand options can yield significant savings on wedding attire.

5. Photography

They hired a local freelance photographer for three hours at $500, focusing on key moments like the ceremony and family portraits. Limiting photography time ensures capturing essential memories while staying within budget.

6. Decorations

Recognizing the need for a realistic decoration budget, Emily and David allocated $500 for decorations. They purchased materials from local craft stores and online marketplaces to create centerpieces, signage, and other décor items themselves, adding a personal touch to the venue. DIY projects can be both cost-effective and meaningful.

7. Music

Instead of hiring a DJ or live band, the couple curated a playlist of their favorite songs and played it through the venue’s sound system. This approach saved money and ensured the music reflected their tastes.

8. Flowers

To further reduce costs, they opted for artificial flowers purchased from a wholesale supplier for $100. This choice allowed them to prepare arrangements in advance and avoid the potential wilting of real flowers.

9. Invitations

Emily and David utilized Paperless Post to design and send digital invitations, costing them $50. Digital invitations are eco-friendly, budget-conscious, and offer a variety of customizable designs. 

10. Cake

They ordered a simple yet elegant two-tier wedding cake from Michelle’s Patisserie, a reputable bakery in Austin, for $250. Opting for a local bakery with affordable options ensured a delicious cake without overspending. 

Budget Breakdown:
• Venue: $1,500
• Catering: $475
• Attire: $400
• Photography: $500
• Decorations: $500
• Music: $0
• Flowers: $100
• Invitations: $50
• Cake: $250
• Miscellaneous (licenses, rings, etc.): $225
• Total: $4,000

By thoughtfully allocating funds and incorporating DIY elements, Emily and David celebrated their wedding day beautifully without exceeding their $5,000 budget. This case study demonstrates that with strategic planning and resourcefulness, a memorable wedding is possible without significant financial strain.

You have other options for your ceremony!!

As a wedding professional, I speak to sooo many brides that think their options are courthouse or church. And that simply is not true and could save you money and aesthetics!

You can get married almost anywhere!! Your home, someone else's home, the place you had your first date or kiss.....the options are pretty open! And you aren't limited to guest count in most cases, especially in public spaces!

Example of a wedding I just finished:

Guest count: 25
Budget: $7500

Ceremony:
Park Fee: $100
Arch rental: $200
Balloons, flowers and signs: $600
Officiant: $200

Reception:
Venue rental: $1500
Dj services: $500
Catering (Full Mexican food buffet): $700
Cake (small wedding cake with sheet cake for guests): $300
Decorations: $500

Photography: $1500

Actual spent: $5800

This bride chose the reception venue and prioritized photos and food. There were cheaper options available but the couple knew exactly what they wanted their money spent on.

I say this to say, you can have a beautiful wedding without sacrificing an arm and a leg to do so!
