Here another tips for cheap wedding from Suzanne Daykin. Recently I had the pleasure of helping a friend organise her sister’s wedding. It didn’t just have to be cheap it had to be the cheapest wedding ever, they had both just finished university and like most students they were pretty broke.

The date was set and to keep costs down the local registery office was the venue, not the prettiest of places, it was definately built for function rather than looks. Luckily the public park was close and we helped find some great places for the photographs.

The bride to be had some fantastic and unusual ideas for her cheap wedding dress but on one of the many shopping trips fell in love with a beautiful cream summer dress, perfect for the wedding day. Shoes were borrowed from the big sister - very important to have sister’s or friends with the same size feet!

Flowers were kept very simple with button holes for the groom and best man and a corsage for the bride.

The venue for the wedding reception was at the big sister’s garden - not massive but with standing room only 65 people were fitted in - very good job everyone knew each other!

The wedding breakfast was a buffet, all sourced from the local supermarket, and we made a stunning display with fruit as the centerpiece.

The total cost for the wedding was only a few hundred, but the day was beautiful and simple and all about the happy couple.

Fed up with flowers or candles for your cheap wedding centerpiece idea, or find they are just too much like every other wedding you go to then help is here.

Help in the form of you, that is you from your childhood when nothing else mattered but having the latest toy or craze. Think back to the days when you saved all your pocket money to ensure you were the coolest kid in the playground, how good would it be to have that feeling back? I am not talking the latest games console but inspiration for your cheap wedding centerpiece idea.

Having games and gadgets at the table is a great ice breaker and can easily set the tone for a relaxed and fun wedding reception. Make a space in the middle of your table for the games and away we go.

Games that work well are ones that everyone can play, play quickly and that they have played before. Lego, pick up sticks, trump cards, marbles, tiddlywinks. With the building toys you could set each table a challenge; make a wedding cake or a limousine, use your imagination, what are you both into? Bikes, planes, boats etc.

The great thing about this cheap wedding centerpiece idea is that it works as a great ice breaker. To display the games you could have them in a big box or material bag on each table - decorated in your wedding colors. To take this theme one step further you could have the tables named on the plan for each type of game that you have and don’t forget the top table!
