It is not easy to list down what are the things you can save on and it can be a pain in the neck and a storm to test the will of the wedding couples before their big day comes. We will still do our best to plan a really affordable wedding but only to realise that we still exceed our wedding budget at the end of the day.

A moment ago, a friend of mine contacted me asking for advice for his wedding dinner location and after talking to him, I think I have helped him save more than S$500. It is definitely a good start.

When I was planning my wedding, I only thought that we only had to manage the wedding matters. Nothing else except wedding.
