Save on expensive floral aisle decorations by creating colorful heart-decorated sticks using craft paper, a large heart-shaped punch, and wood craft sticks. This budget-friendly alternative adds pops of color without the cost of flowers. Works beautifully for bohemian or whimsical wedding themes. You can customize colors to match your wedding palette and create them well in advance. Perfect for couples who want visual impact along the ceremony aisle without the floral price tag.

DIY Your Wedding Signage and Paper Goods

Save $300-800 by creating your own welcome signs, table numbers, menus, and programs using Canva templates and printing through online services like Vistaprint or Minted. For a polished look, stick to 2-3 fonts and your wedding colors. Print on quality cardstock. You can also hand-letter or use a Cricut machine for a custom touch. Leave complex items like invitations to professionals unless you have design experience.

Create Your Own Centerpieces

Simple, elegant centerpieces are easy to DIY. Try: candles in varying heights with greenery, potted plants or succulents guests can take home, books stacked with flowers on top (great for literary themes), or filled glass vases with lemons, cranberries, or seasonal items. Buy supplies wholesale from flower markets or craft stores. Recruit friends for an assembly party the week before. Can save $500-1,500 depending on guest count.

DIY Your Wedding Favors But Not Centerpieces

Wedding favors are perfect for DIY—small, can be made months ahead, and mistakes aren't catastrophic. Avoid DIY centerpieces: they're time-consuming, require fresh flowers day-before, and take up precious prep time. Outsource things that need last-minute assembly.
