Have you thought of hosting a wedding at home, garden or in a club house?
We at A-wedding Day received many requests for information about planning a home dream wedding, engagement party, shower, or a special birthday party on a budget.
It seems that an article on the subject will help many plan not only weddings, but other events such as engagement parties, showers, holiday parties, birthday parties and any other type of party hosted in a home or a club house.

Dear A-wedding Day: I am planning a simple elegant ceremony followed by an at home (garden) wedding reception
I am on a rather strict budget.
I need ideas for
Inexpensive yet elegant invitations,
Reception recipes like finger foods and easy buffet items,
Inexpensive and easy to make centerpieces,
Reasonably priced wedding accessories to go with my beach theme wedding
Inexpensive and easy to make Favors
If you have other ideas that will help me to actually have my dream wedding without going over my small budget, I'll surely appreciate them.

Thanks!
Kelly

This article is our actual response to Kelly but is intended to serve others as well. Nothing can be more personal and economical than having a wedding at home. but there may be some considerations.
You must condsider the size of the house, garden or club house when preparing your guest list. You want your guests to be comfortable and enjoy your special day. Unless you have an enormous house, garden or club house, limit the number of your guests to the number of people you'll be able to accomodate comfortably.
Consider your wedding day, the most important day of your life when you do not want to be bogged down with various details. Your friends and family who helped you put the wedding together, want to enjoy your day too.
So, if not for the planning, be sure to hire help for the entire wedding day itself.

FLOWERS
Since a home or a club house is small in terms of space, you do not need a lot of flowers.
Go with the seasonal flowers that you can purchase in your supermarket, Costco or Sams Club.
They are fresh and beautiful.
Some supermarket even offer personalized floral arrangements at a price that is a fraction of what a florist would charge.
If you have one, use flowers from your own garden. Can you imagine more personalized flower arrangements?
If you opt for Silk or Satin flowers, check your local arts and crafts store.
