"Hi I'm Becky Sosa with Stress Free Events dot net. I like to talk to you about planning a small cheap wedding. One of the best ways to keep your wedding cost down is to limit the number of people you have. Also to limit the amount of food you have. If you plan your wedding at a time that it's not right at a meal time, your guests are not going to expect a large meal. If you have an early morning wedding at nine thirty or ten o'clock, they are not going to expect you to feed them a big heavy dinner. You can get away with a cake and punch reception. That they'll have a little bit of a snack, they'll have the wedding feel and be able to enjoy themselves. Also you kept your numbers down so you won't have to buy a large cake or anything like that. Cake is sold usually by the guest number. Keep those things in mind. A small wedding is anything under fifty people but it can be as small as three or four people. Figure out who you really want at your wedding. Keep the numbers down,keep the food costs down and do as many things as you can yourself. You may even want to consider planting a garden and growing your own flowers. These are ways to have a small cheap wedding."
