Wedding: Reception Decoration on a Budget

Preparing for the best day of your life, the wedding day, is a thrilling experience that can easily go wrong and turn into a hassle. Instead of wasting your precious energy on stress or worrying about money you can take matters into your own hands with the décor and choose some cost-efficient options.

The Chairs

Regardless of the venue and what you intend to do with the décor, when it comes to chairs you can solve the dilemma easily with wedding chair covers that you can buy in bulk as they're quick and easy to use, form-fitting with various chair shapes and won't break your bank.

Renting seat covers can be costly and requiring a great deal of work which is why this solution proves to be better. Besides, they're stylish, available in different colours and materials like lycra, and best of all is you won't have to fret the chairs don't fit in with the surroundings or need some refinishing and repainting.

The Centrepieces

Along with the wedding chair covers candles and flowers make a great addition to the décor as centrepieces, especially when wanting to create a lively and warm atmosphere, though if you find you're short on budget to acquire as many candles and flowers as you had in mind, you could always go for something that's already part of the table: food!

With the help of various decorative plates, trays and jars you'd be able to pull off a stunning outcome that wins over guests and is simply irresistible to try. Likewise, if you insist on using flowers you can stick to anything seasonal as it's the best strategy to cutting down on the costs.

The Reception

On the more personal side, you can customise the reception by relying on your photos. You can make it as creative as you want it to be, show your love story, where it all started, when and where the proposal and engagement happened, and incorporate photos of the guests and how they take part in your story.

Apart from being affordable, this is a step that ought to bring a smile to your guests and turn into a wedding they're sure to remember for years to come. Apart from the reception, they could be used with the table too in the case of the numbers - that's a DIY project guests would truly appreciate.

As you see, creating something warm and welcoming doesn't always mean it has to be expensive!
