Why Selecting the Right
Supplier is Important for
Your Cheap Wedding Plans

To make sure your cheap wedding plans stay on track, you’ll want to source the best suppliers for the job. Making sure you get the most for your money is important and selecting the right supplier is part of the process. This article outlines some tips to find a supplier that’s right for you, and your budget.

Getting accurate quotes, so you can compare suppliers like-for-like


When asking for quotes, make sure you give the same information to each supplier.

Break the information down clearly for them, so they can quote on each element separately.

Give the same information to all the suppliers you speak to, so that you can compare each quote easily when they come in.

Always shop around

Always, always shop around. This can’t be stressed enough. By shopping around and asking several different suppliers for quotes, you will end up with a better price for your wedding budget.

Always, get three quotes for everything

This is a golden rule! With three quotes you can easily compare supplier’s services.

For big purchases, have a face-to-face meeting

For the more costly or more important items, such as the venue or wedding dress, you’ll probably need to visit the supplier for a face-to-face meeting. You shouldn’t just go on price for the high wedding budget items, because levels of service here will be important too.

Ask about inclusions and exclusions

Signing the wedding contract

Always get in writing what is included as part of the quote, it'll enable you to compare your quotes easily. Another thing that many people forget is to ask about exclusions. Get your supplier to give you a list of what is excluded from the price - then you won't have any nasty surprises later down the line.

Rule out suppliers based on cost and service

When the quotes come in, start to rule out certain suppliers. You can do this based on cost or service. For my wedding, many of the quotes were similar, so we ruled out suppliers based on service and friendliness. It worked well and we ended up with a great venue.

With these points in mind, you should get the best suppliers for your cheap wedding.
