"Hopefully getting married but would love to know as only have minimall money maybe £2k so any advice be great "
We had a very small wedding, and focused on everything being perfect for that small number. It also allowed us to keep costs down. I think that was key for us.
Doing things outside also saved us a lot of cash, though that is probably harder in the UK, I would imagine.

Ours was just short of 3k but it wasn't a ordinary wedding but reflected us and our wishes, we married in a reg office, did our own vowels and rather than shitty food at a hotel we had just family (25 of us) for a meal at our fave restaurant - which meant we could cover all the drinks and have amazing food and could all just relax together.
Then we had a evening do with everything we wanted, photo booth, candy cart etc but did it the next day so we could do all the set up to save money
There are ways of doing things cheap. We hired a club but then hired large round tables so it could be set up nice, we borrowed table clothes, made all our own decorations, bunting, centre pieces. It's hard work but we did all ours in less than 6 months.
Also suits- buy from matalan and waistcoats and cravats from eBay- cheaper than suit hire and can use again. |

My previous marriage was around 6k but the divorce was a fortune too although worth it!
