1.
This is why you shouldn’t skimp on serving food, people.
2.
This is why you don’t try to bring your own food.
3.
Need another reason to leave wedding catering to the professionals?
4.
If you’re going to make your own food, stick to the classics. And maybe stay away from children’s items like spaghetti.
5.
Say it louder so the people in the back can hear: Don’t skimp on the food!!!!
6.
If you can’t afford a wedding singer, I’m sorry, but trying to get one to play for free (or in exchange for the opportunity to have sex with your bridesmaids???) is completely unacceptable.
7.
Pro tip: Grass spray paint is not a budget-friendly way to brighten up your place.
8.
And using mashed potato mixture instead of rice is notttt the budget-friendly hack you think it is.
9.
Instead of serving steaks, this pair probably should have focused on serving up enough to eat.
10.
If you can’t suggest accommodations to your guests besides a “sleepout,” perhaps have a private wedding for your immediate family.
11.
I’m all for crafts, but toilet paper rolls? Which isn’t even covered by anything (except duct tape)?
12.
I hate to cherish more DIY, which can be nice, but…this couple should have been scrolling Pinterest a little longer.
13.
This plan for bathrooms at a wedding went from “money-saving” into truly “disgusting” territory.
14.
This “bathroom” wasn’t much better.
15.
Dinner service isn’t just something you can cut to save money at a wedding. Court weddings are fine! But if you can afford a reception, you need to feed people real food.
16.
The idea behind this was cute, but, uh, I have to say these handmade decorations ended up being a night out.
17.
It’s okay if you can’t stand elaborate displays, but this decor was pretty distasteful (see what I did there?).
18.
By all means, make things your own, but at least get the spelling right. Best yet? Print a banner from the Internet, and use Spellcheck.
19.
This may be a money-saving hack that works, but it certainly doesn’t meet ethical standards.
20.
This one confuses me. You are rich enough to serve tuna tartare, yet you serve it in a PVC tube??
21.
I know wedding food is expensive, but that’s no excuse to leave those with dietary restrictions with cardboard cutouts to eat.
22.
Vegans are people too!
23.
If you’re going to expect your bridal party to help prepare the wedding in order to save money, which is fair enough. But at least feed them more than a small slice of pizza for a day and a half of work!
24.
PSA: You can make free or cheap invitations on a million different sites online for much nicer than this.
25.
However, the DIY invitation above is still much better than asking a professional to provide invitations for free.
26.
I don’t mean to sound harsh, but if you can’t throw a reception without asking your friends and family to pay to attend (plus travel and lodging)…it should just be a court wedding. And definitely don’t make people appear in levels based on their contributions!!!
27.
Wedding meals don’t need to be fancy, but this sounds like baby food.
28.
Go ahead and skip the cake if you need to, but seeing these cakes displayed on unfinished wood already makes my mouth feel like sawdust.
29.
This couple decided to save money by having a small reception at a restaurant – awesome! However, they expected guests to pay more than they normally would at this restaurant for their food – not great!
30.
Trying to actually take advantage of your wedding guests goes beyond cheap and innovative. I would 100% skip this wedding – even if it was my brother.
31.
I can’t believe I need to repeat this – wedding guests shouldn’t have to pay for your guests!
32.
Finally…choose an unconventional place if you like. But I’m sorry, I can’t just drop out of marriage at a gas station.
