Hi Liz! Congratulations on your engagement!! 💍❤️
The biggest factors in the cost of your wedding will be when you get married (what month, day of the week, and time of day) and how big your guest list is! Each additional wedding guest multiples your costs, so the smaller your invite list the better. The other big way to save money is to get married at an "off-peak" time - like having a weekday wedding or hosting an afternoon wedding reception with light food & drinks instead of a full meal.

Congratulations! Think about the guests how many will you have? If budget is important consider a church wedding or outdoor venue. DIY as much as you can.
