Weddings can cost a fortune, can’t they? If you’re planning your big day, you’ll soon see that costs can soon add up if you’re not careful, so it comes as no surprise that more and more loved up couples are opting to head abroad to tie the knot and save themselves all the hassle of planning for (and paying for) a massive celebration.
With the cost of an average UK wedding now standing at a staggering £18,000, it’s no wonder people are forgoing these ideas and opting to jet off abroad. Naturally, one of the most popular destinations is Las Vegas, due to the reputation attached to the place as well as the very lax marriage laws that operate in the city.
Of course, if you’re not careful, a Vegas wedding could cost an arm and a leg as well, especially if you have plans to whisk your family and friends off to see you get married, too. However, there are plenty of ways in which you can keep the financing under control, leaving you some left over to enjoy a honeymoon too!
Do it Yourself
Rather than opting for a tailormade package, shop around and organise the various aspects of the trip independently. You will find cheap flights to Las Vegas with flythomascook available online throughout the year and if you book these separately to other aspects of the trip, you may find that the overall price is less than that of a package deal.
Choose Dates Wisely
You may like the idea of getting married at Christmas, or on Valentine’s Day, but these are dates when everyone else has the same idea, too. Opt for a less popular date and you’ll find cheaper options, without the excessive waiting times.
Limit the Numbers
Many couples choose to whisk themselves away to Vegas for an intimate wedding, just the two of them. If you must insist on taking family and friends with you, limit the numbers to save money. Alternatively, ask them to fund their own airfare to help alleviate the financial pressure.
A wedding in Vegas can cost a fraction of the average UK wedding – choose cheaper options and you’ll save even more money too!
