Small-scale entertainment can feel like a big celebration. Hosting an intimate dinner reception after tying the knot can be very beneficial.

By incorporating a reception to your wedding plans it gives you a chance to celebrate your union and allow friends and family to wish you well and express their love.

Celebrating your union publically provides a positive place to share the good news. This can alleviate the hurt loved ones may feel for not being present during your exchange of vows.

Dinners are great place for receiving gifts and money as well.

Also, it’s a party. How many reasons do you need to have a great party?

Choosing a significant location to be married adds romance to the ceremony. Instead of going to the courthouse try an affordable or free location such as:

- Historic Park or Landscaped Backyard

- Museum or Art Gallery

- Waterfront or Riverfront view

No matter where you decide to have your wedding you can most likely find a wedding package that includes an Officiate who will perform your ceremony saving you money and add serious convenience to your wedding schedule.

Simple additions such as a beautiful hairpiece and bouquet add style and charm to your appearance for a fraction of the cost of a full-length gown.

-       Book a Bed & Breakfast, they are quaint and intimate

-       Select a Wine tasting tour at a nearby Vineyard.

-       Go on a camping trip (Who says honeymoons have to be traditional)?

Opting to elope may not be as big a sacrifice as you think. Here are five ways to get the wedding of your dreams without the hassle and expense of a traditional ceremony.

Wedding dresses and Tux rentals can be taxing on time and money. Instead opt for a more affordable and informal wedding dress and suit. Not only are they still elegant but you'll be investing in attire that can be worn more than once.
