Local Budgeting Tips
Planning a wedding in Margaret River doesn’t have to break the bank! With a few smart budgeting tips and my guidance as your celebrant, I can help you navigate local, low-cost options that ensure your day is both beautiful and affordable.
The internet is full of inspirational wedding budget ideas, but here are a few local tips to get you started:
Simplify with Style
Re-invent your wedding day by exchanging vows in a picturesque outdoor or no-cost location, followed by a relaxed, intimate lunch at one of Margaret River’s stunning wineries or restaurants—there’s no written rule that you have to have a full-blown choreographed affair.
Set Priorities
Decide what aspects of your wedding matter most to you and allocate your budget accordingly.
DIY Where You Can
Get creative with decorations, invitations and guest favours to save costs and add a personal touch. There’s so much beauty to be found in Margaret River’s nature…forage rather than spend!
Venue Flexibility
Getting married on a weekday or during the off-season will result in reduced venue, vendor and accommodation costs.
Secondhand Finds
Consider using secondhand items for decorations and catering purposes to save money while still having a beautiful day. As well as local Marketplace opportunities, Margaret River has some sensational charity shop outlets that offer all manner of secondhand goods and I’ll happily point you in their directions - you never know, you could even find the perfect pre-loved wedding dress or suit!
