Weddings can be extremely expensive, but they don't have to be. You can plan a wedding using cheap wedding ideas. It all depends on what you want and what you are willing to do without. Starting out with a budget will help you know what you have to work with. When you are planning a wedding, be creative in what you use and what you plan. There are many cheap wedding ideas that can be found online.
Cheap wedding ideas are something most people don't discuss with a couple that is planning a wedding. Most people think that a couple will spend as much as they can ( or more) for their special day, but that is not always the case. Some just don't have the money to spend or they don't want to spend a lot or go into debt.
This article will give you some cheap wedding ideas to consider or you can use them to come up with your own ideas.
o Use A Judge
One of the cheapest weddings you can have is to get married in front of a judge at the local court house. The court house will charge you a small fee to use the judge to perform the ceremony, but that could be the only fee involved. You could wear clothes that you already have and you could either skip the post wedding party altogether or you could have it at your home.
o Church
If you are planning a church wedding, find out if your pastor can waive charges to use the church. You can also ask if he can waive the charges for his services or if he can charge you a small nominal fee. You don't have to decorate the church or you can choose to add just a few flowers.
o Las Vegas
If you live close to Las Vegas or plan to honeymoon there, you can have a cheap wedding in one of the chapels. This may not be a cheap plan if you plan to have a lot of people attend or if you live clear across the US from Vegas.
One of the most expensive parts of a wedding is the brides dress. The perfect dress can cost as much as $2000 or more. If you don't have that kind of money, you have a couple options. You can wear a dress from your Mom or Grandmother, you could buy a dress at a garage sale, or you could purchase a dress from a used clothing store. Check the newspaper for an ad as well. And don't forget the sales at the bridal shops. They get new stock in from time to time and put the dresses on sale at a great savings.
Something else that can be pretty pricey for the couple is the wedding party dresses and tuxedos. It wouldn't be rude at all to ask for each of them to pay for all or half of the cost their dress or tux. If you tell them far enough in advance, they will have the time to save for it.
Weddings don't have to cost an arm and a leg. There are many cheap wedding ideas that you can use and still have a wonderful wedding and one that you will remember forever. Be creative when you are looking for cheap wedding ideas. Ask family members and friends for their ideas to help you out. If people know you are looking for cheap wedding ideas they won't have a problem helping you out.

Koolatron - Koolatron Voyager Cooler List Price: $159.95 Sale Price: $107.00 Used From: $121.62 |
|
The Koolatron Voyager 29 quart 12 Volt cooler is ruggedly designed with plenty of room to store and cool all your favorite travel snacks and beverages. Your family will no longer need to stop for food or soda while on the road. The time and money saved by eliminating stops at the convenience store while on trips will more than pay for the Voyager over time. A 12 Volt plug is included with your Voyager Cooler and plugs into your cigarette lighter to keep all your favorite snacks and beverages chilled up to 40ºF below the ambient temperature. The Koolatron Voyager can also keep food warm up to 135ºF. With the optional AC adaptor the cooler can be plugged into a standard 110 Volt household outlet and used indoors or on the patio as a compact refrigerator or bar fridge.The perfect gift for RVers, boaters, outdoorsmen, hunters or college students! Ideal for road trips, camping excursions, boating trips, tailgate parties, and just about any other away-from-home activity, the Koolatron Voyager thermoelectric cooler keeps your food and beverages cool without requiring you to stock up on ice cubes every few hours. The Voyager plugs directly into your car's 12-volt cigarette lighter, where it draws less power than your headlights. Once plugged in, the cooler's thermoelectric cooling module--which takes up less space than a matchbook--maintains a constant temperature of approximately 40 to 45 degrees F lower than the temperature of the surrounding air. At a temperature of 80 degrees F, for example, the contents of the cooler will stay at 38 degrees F. As a result, you can store cool drinks for weeks on end, preserve leftovers for a couple of days, and even keep ice cubes whole for three or four days longer than traditional coolers. No more costly stops for soda or snacks, saving you both time and money while on the road. As an alternative, you can also use the Voyager to heat food up to 130 to 140 degrees F--hot enough for a potluck dinner or a picnic. Or you can split the difference and keep infant food and bottles warm while on the road. Explaining Thermoelectric Refrigeration Thermoelectric refrigeration uses a principle called the Peltier effect to pump heat electronically. Named after a French scientist who discovered it in 1834, the Peltier effect describes the process of electrical currents passing through a series of tiny metal cube junctions, thereby transferring heat from one metal to the other. When connected to a heat-absorbing device on one side and a heat-dissipating device on the other, solid-state thermoelectric modules are capable of transferring large quantities of heat. The Voyager cooler applies this technology through its internal aluminum cold plate fins, which absorb heat from the contents (food and beverages), and then use the thermoelectric modules to transfer it to the heat-dissipating fins under the control panel. The only moving part is a small 12-volt fan that disperses the heat into the air. Thermoelectric modules--which are ideally suited to recreational applications because they are lightweight, compact, insensitive to motion or tilting, have no moving parts, and can operate directly from 12-volt batteries. Voyager Benefits The Voyager offers a number of benefits to anyone who travels frequently in a vehicle. While it's not quite as portable as a traditional cooler, it still offers plenty of on-the-go freedom, making it great for day trips, long overnight journeys, pleasure boating, fishing, and camping. It's also extremely efficient, continually reducing the temperature within the first three hours depending on the contents of the unit and the surrounding air. And because there's only one moving part (the 12-volt fan), virtually nothing in the cooler can wear out. The Voyager also proves invaluable as an extra fridge in a recreation room or basement bar, the main fridge in a dorm room, as a medical cooler for samples or temperature-sensitive drugs, and as a storage case for heat-sensitive camera and film equipment in extreme climates. Specifications: Capacity: 29 quarts, or up to 48 12-ounce cans Power usage: 12 volts / 4.5 amps DC Interior dimensions: 12 by 12 by 12 inches (W x H x D) Exterior dimensions: 16 by 15.5 by 17 inches (W x H x D) Weight: 13 pounds |
