It’s your big day so of course you want it to be gorgeous from start to finish, but as those dollar signs keep adding up, you might have some second thoughts. The good news, you can still have a dream wedding + keep your costs down! Here’s part four!

Makeup, Hair + Nails

Granted, professionals can leave you looking flawless, but they don’t come cheap!

34. Do your own hair + nails.

35. Ask your best friends/bridal party to be your stylists.

36. Choose a simple hair style.

Transportation + Other Extras

Every item adds up, so if there’s something you can live without, go ahead and cut it.

37. Use an Uber instead of a rental company.

38. Ask a friend/relative that has a fancy car to be your driver.

39. Clean up your car + use it instead.

40. Use simple streamers from the Dollar Store instead of confetti or rice (or get rid of it all together).
