Outdoor Lounge Areas

Give your guests a place to relax between dancing their feet off on the dance floor and mingling with the other guests. Mix & match different furniture to create a cute lounge area with mellow lighting, and you can pick up different pieces of furniture online quite cheap or even free if you ask nicely.

This is the perfect idea for those looking for low budget wedding ideas, but still wanting a very chic look.

Games and Wedding Entertainment 

Keep the entertainment flowing with some wedding styled games. Our favorite is Mr & Mrs the wedding edition.

Have a few set questions and bring your guests into the mix by getting them to ask a question of their own, have chairs set back to back and use your shoes as makeshift paddles.

We guarantee that your guests will be laughing their socks off by the end of the game and it’s perfect for a low budget wedding idea, as it won’t cost you a dime.

Wedding Guestbook

Have a unique guest book for your guests to sign. Try to think outside the box and match it up to your theme as well. If you’re having a beach themed wedding for example rather than having guests sign a book have them write a message to put into a bottle.

This won’t cost you anything extra as we know you are planning a low budget wedding, but this will give a great twist that guests will remember.

Wedding Photo Booths

Although hiring a professional photo booth can be quite expensive it doesn’t mean that you can’t use that idea and create something similar yourself. DIY is ideal if you are planning a low budget wedding. 

Dedicate a corner of the room or an outside space for your guests to take pictures and have a fun dressing up the box with a few different things in to really amp up the fun.

Have a few disposable or Polaroid cameras for your guests to use as well.

And there you have it. We hope you enjoyed our low budget wedding ideas. Which of these tips did you find helpful? Are you planning a wedding on a budget? Tell us below, we want to hear all about it.
