Budget weddings don't have to be boring - in fact, they can be a lot of fun! Here are our top tips for saving money on your wedding:





10 Tips For Saving Money On Your Wedding

1. Get married on a weekday rather than a Saturday, some venues offer cheaper packages on weekdays which could be beneficial for your Wedding Budget, this may also extend to Wedding suppliers who may offer lower prices for less popular dates.


2. Get Married out of season, the peak wedding season runs between April and September for Weddings with the high peak season being the summer months between June and August. Avoiding these months will help you to negotiate better terms for your budget.


3. Choose a cheap wedding venue, there are lots of ways to do this including getting married in a registry office or picking a local village hall where the hire charges are really reasonable, you may even be able to find a free wedding venue like a friend's house or their large garden.


4. Ask a friend or family member to bake your wedding cake, this is a great way to save money and you can be sure that the cake will be personal and exactly what you want. 


5. Choose cheap wedding favours, there are lots of ways to do this including making your own favours or buying in bulk online which can work out much cheaper than buying individually from a shop.

7. Ask guests to bring their own drink, this is a great way to save money and you can be sure that everyone will have their preferred choice without the large budget spend for you.


8. Make your own wedding invitations, this can be a great way to save money and add a personal touch to your wedding stationary. You can find some great tutorials online or in craft stores.


9. Hire or borrow a wedding dress, there are lots of places that now hire out Wedding Dresses so you don’t need to spend a fortune on this aspect of your big day.



10. Hire a Food Van, this is becoming a popular choice for weddings as it can be more budget friendly than having a full sit down meal. You can find some great food vans that will cater to your specific wedding theme or cuisine preferences.

At The Hungry Plaice we have recently introduced a new addition to our fleet Bessie a modern van specifically for certain corporate events which call for a modern van. This contemporary vehicle is equipped with a modern range fryer and will be able to cover long distances effortlessly, allowing us to continue to cater for clients even in far-flung locations! The decision to invest in this high-tech van was driven by the desire to preserve our beloved vintage vans, Betty and Beryl who aged 40 and 38 respectively need to do less travelling in order to keep them on the road for as long as we can. Betty and Beryl have been serving up delicious fish and chips for years, becoming icons of The Hungry Plaice's brand. They hold sentimental value that goes beyond their functionality as food trucks and customers had developed an emotional connection with these charming old-fashioned vehicles. Recognising this sentiment, we have decided it was time to protect Betty and Beryl from excessive wear and tear. By introducing the modern van for corporate events, The Hungry Plaice ensures that Betty and Beryl can get some well-deserved rest while still meeting the demands of commercial catering. The advanced features of the new van enhance efficiency making it easier for the business to accommodate large gatherings and operate in distant venues without straining their classic counterparts. Moreover, the modern van allows The Hungry Plaice to expand its reach into previously untapped markets. With its reliability over long distances, the company can now offer its renowned fish and chips experience at various events across different regions, attracting new customers who may have previously been out of range. Despite taking advantage of cutting-edge technology using this new vehicle, The Hungry Plaice remains committed to maintaining its traditional appeal. Betty and Beryl will continue delighting customers at weddings, private and some corporate events keeping alive the nostalgic charm that has become synonymous with The Hungry Plaice experience.  The decision to incorporate a modern van alongside Betty and Beryl represents a balanced approach between preserving tradition and embracing innovation. As we embark on this exciting chapter of expansion The Hungry Plaice remains dedicated to delivering excellence in our services.
