chosen.content: I have compiled a list of ideas to plan a wedding where you don't have to minimize the guest list.
  
  • Set the date for mid-week, Friday, or Sunday. Saturday is when most weddings occur and it's cheaper to have the ceremony on other days of the week. 
  
  • Come up with some creative DIY wedding favors such as a collection of keepsakes in a mason jar or soy candles, which are inexpensive to make and you can have plenty for the guests and their plus ones.
  
  • Opt for beer and wine as adult beverages, as liquor is more expensive. Or come up with your own specialty cocktails and have a happy hour versus an open bar all night. 
  
  • When thinking about floral decor and bouquets, opt for flowers that are in season. 
  
  • Be open to the idea of a couple of food trucks versus a catering company. These can be half the price of buffets or catering. 
  
  • Think about a friend who may have a beautiful outdoor space that is willing to host the event. 
  
  • Ask a friend or loved one to officiate the wedding, versus hiring a professional. It would mean more in the long run. 
  
  • Set a budget and make a list of non-negotiables so that you both are on the same page.
