Saving Tip For Your Wedding Day: Grooming The Old Ride

By Ping Carr


Admittedly, weddings are charming and romantic occasions; nonetheless, they can also be quite expensive. There is no point arguing this fact. From the day leading to the big day when the boyfriend flashes out the engagement ring to his honey to the honeymoon break, everything reeks of a dollar sign. But as any penny pincher will tell you, you can always cut cost.

Cutting costs ought not be a cause for pain. It is still very possible to hold a grand wedding ceremony without it costing too much; the couple would just have to be creative in their search for more affordable alternatives. For example, the flowers for the wedding can be exchanged for inexpensive blooms rather than acquiring the most expensive bouquets in the flowershop. If you are lucky enought to come across a shop that offers discounts for flower arrangements on your wedding day, then you ought to grab the opportunity. Giveaway tokens could be made by hand; clothes may be hand-sewn or rented for the occasion, and the food for the wedding ceremony reception could be home-cooked. Also, if you are fortunate to be surrounded by friends, then you could enlist their help during your wedding ceremony. Always keep in mind that you can always lessen the cost of the wedding ceremony arrangements.

Nevertheless, there are things needed for the wedding ceremony that still need to be purchased, but these can also be bought at lower prices. Your wedding car can cost you from a few hundred dollars to more than a thousand. Even if you search for a more affordable car rental, it will still cost your hundreds of dollars.

So, if you have an old car, why not utilize that instead? It is in the spirit of converting something old into chic vintage. For some people, old is another term for boring and outdated while vintage is "retro" and classy. People are going for retro nowadays so even if your car is already decades old, you can save a lot by turning it into your wedding ceremony car instead of renting.

You can set aside some hours for car grooming. This is really a great opportunity for you to not only save several hundreds of dollars that you would have spent on renting a bridal car, you would also be able to reconstruct the original beauty of your vehicle. Nevertheless, the car grooming is really not exclusively done in preparation for the wedding day. The wedding day is just one of those special occasions for which you can use your car.

At this day and age, vintage is considered something of high value. Even if you do not own an S-series vehicle, you should not worry or be concerned. For as long as your old car is running, it will do. Color isn't a factor anymore as well. While white was the traditional color for the wedding ceremony car, this time, any color is acceptable so there is no requirement for a new paintjob.

You would need the necessary decorations, of course. Add the Just Married banner and the flowers on the hood and you're good to go.
