In addition, it will be much easier to book a photographer, band and other service providers on a day other than Saturday.

'5-10% Savings

Renting a wedding dress

Every woman wants to look absolutely unique on that day. No less a one-time expense of buying a new wedding dress can be a considerable burden on your budget. Therefore, it is worth considering renting, as the cost is much, much lower.

Gown rental prices start from as little as 500 PLN

Renting a wedding dress is a cost of 500 to 2000 PLN, while buying a new creation is an expense of 1800 to several thousand! So the savings are really big!

A suit from a sale and one that can be worn for other occasions

The groom-to-be can choose a suit from sales, taking advantage of the numerous promotions arranged by most well-known chain stores. In addition, it is worth saving double, that is, choose a suit that can be worn on other special occasions. The same principle can apply to shoes. In this way, a one-time expense will certainly be less painful. It is also worth remembering that most popular brands offer tailor's corrections in their showrooms, so you can adjust the suit to your figure without spending a fortune on an exclusive tailored model.

Up to -70% savings

Of course, buying a fashionable wedding suit at such a big discount is rare, but discounts of 20-30% are as real as possible. The rule of thumb is: the sooner you start bargain hunting the better, so it's a good idea to watch the sales as early as a year before the wedding.

Seasonal flowers

Of course, live flowers are the most beautiful, and they are also the stylistic theme of the wedding and the reception. You will need quite a lot of them for decoration, and there remains the question of bouquets for the bride, bridesmaids and mothers. In short, to save money, it is worth betting on seasonal flowers.

Even a few thousand savings

For roses in late September you have to pay up to 3 times more than in August. And for kales in November even 4 times more than in May!

Wedding without amendments (or amendments without an orchestra)

Back in the 19th, and even at the beginning of the 20th, century, Polish weddings could last up to 3 days, so it is no wonder that the tradition of amendments has survived to our time. Of course, their costs are disproportionately lower than the wedding itself, no less they raise expenses by several percent. It's worth asking yourself whether it's worth giving them up, after all, many guests will be tired anyway after the fun of the night before. However, if you want to hold a rehearsal party, you can skip the orchestra or DJ, which will certainly have a positive impact on your budget.

Savings on the "plate" and the orchestra are several thousand savings

The standard assumption is that the cost of the amendments is about 50 zł per "plate", or per person. In the case of a wedding for 60 people, this is already an amount of PLN 3,000. Even if the amendments are included in the price of the wedding, it is possible to forgo the orchestra or DJ, so that we will not incur the cost of an additional night's accommodation and the musical setting itself the next day.

Own cold drinks and alcohol from wholesalers

In the wedding industry, drinks and alcohol are typically marked up significantly. For this reason, it’s worth asking upfront about the possibility of supplying your own. Buying in advance from a wholesale store can save a lot, as every złoty counts. Organizers usually agree, but often add a corkage fee, which can make this option less cost-effective. In this situation, the best approach is to negotiate the corkage fee or aim for a lower markup.

Bargain for cork

As a rule, the wedding industry adds a hefty markup to drinks and alcoholic beverages, or raises "corkage" fees. In this situation, you simply have to bargain a little!

A wedding car from a cousin or friend instead of a rental car

Surely you have a relative or friend in your family who will be happy to lend you a beautiful car, which you will drive to the church and wedding hall in style.

"Thank you" instead of £500 or a much larger expense

Prices for renting a wedding car start from an average of 500 zloty, reaching several or even several thousand zloty for a unique vintage car, a sports car, an exclusive limousine or a Hummer.

Wedding car with or without minimalist decoration

This expense is not one of the largest, but you know: grain to grain and... if you are looking to save money then it is worth opting for car decoration, for example, in the form of satin ribbons, balloons and/or flowers on the door handles. Such minimalism looks very good, because in the case of car decoration the principle of "less is more" is extremely apt.

Prices for wedding car decoration start from 200-300 PLN

There is no limit, of course, because everything depends on the style, the species of flowers chosen and the quality of the decorations. No less the most classic decorations can often be made yourself or simply limited to minimalist ornaments costing a few or a dozen zlotys.

Dj instead of band and soloist(s)

There is no wedding without good music, as it literally and figuratively sets the rhythm of the party. Of course, rates vary widely and depend on the class of performers their repertoire and the situation in the wedding market. However, it is worth taking into account that the expense for a band with a soloist/s is usually 2-3 times more.

Dj for a wedding is an average cost of 1500 to 8000zł

The expense for a 2-3 person orchestra with a soloist/s is in the range of 4 to 20,000 zlotys. Ps. We would like to remind you about the song selection and the list of banned songs that you do not want to hear at your wedding!

Muffins instead of traditional cake

Although the wedding cake is a tradition, you have to pay a lot for it. An alternative is muffins arranged in an impressive way. Such a variant will allow you to save a good amount of money, and at the same time you will gain an original accent to the decor! You can also order a small wedding cake for you and your parents to symbolically cut it, and treat your guests to delicious muffins.

A wedding cake costs from £85 to over £1,000/kg

The standard assumption is 10 kilograms per 100 people, or 100 grams per person, so even the cheapest cake for 50 guests will cost about $425.

DIY wedding invitations

If you make them yourself, or enlist the help of witnesses, family or friends, it is certain that your wedding invitation will be absolutely unique and personal. This is a value in itself, and certainly, even if they are not perfect, they will evoke warm feelings in the recipients. The second thing is to save money. Of course, making the invitations yourself, you will have to invest your time and buy the materials, but it is worth remembering that on average one wedding invitation costs about 4 zlotys.

The average price of wedding invitations ranges from 3 to 12 zlotys

The condition for such a price is to choose an available design. You usually have to pay extra for an individual design.

The wedding planner is an essential tool for organizers

With our best wishes for your new journey, we present to you a wedding planner that will help you organize your dream wedding step by step, while keeping your budget in mind. It’s time to create a list of wedding expenses, calculate the costs using our calculator, and think about how to save smartly.

So, let’s get started!

Wedding planner - wedding expense list

The best answer is that you should allocate exactly as much as you want for their organization. We admit this is a somewhat vague response, but it’s important to adopt a strategy that aligns the costs of the wedding with your budget, rather than the other way around.

Wedding rings

Wedding rings are the most important element of your wedding day—after all, they symbolize marriage and serve as a lifelong keepsake. We’d be happy to help you check this item off your list!

Wedding planner - what is it?

A wedding planner is essentially an organizer designed to help couples plan their wedding. Everyone wants their special day, when they say the most important "YES" to be unforgettable. This can lead to a lot of stress, and amidst the many organizational tasks, it’s easy to overlook important details. That’s why a wedding planner is such a helpful tool!

Wedding organizer - do you need one?

As the name suggests, a wedding organizer is meant to assist with the planning of the wedding and reception, and it's well-known that support can be invaluable during these events. But how do you know if you need one? It’s quite simple! Consider what kind of person you are. Are you organized or scatterbrained? Do you remember everything, or do you often forget even the most important details? Do you always know where essential documents are, or do they tend to get lost around the house?

If you only selected the first responses, congratulations to you, the perfect bride! However, even someone as organized as you should consider getting a wedding organizer. We’re only human, and it’s easy to forget something, especially when facing the important and sometimes stressful task of planning your own wedding. There's no need to risk even more nerves—it's better to gather everything important in one special notebook: a wedding organizer.

Wedding planner - appearance

Buying a paper wedding planner is a great idea, as the tips it contains, along with pages for your notes, will certainly help you organize your dream wedding. If the planner is also aesthetically pleasing and beautifully crafted, it will be a joy to look at during the months of anticipation leading up to your big day! You’ll find plenty of useful tables, lists, and schedules inside. Check out the SAVICKI wedding planner, where you can jot down all your important decisions and details—we would be honored to assist you in organizing your special wedding.

Wedding planner vs. Dreambook - what are the differences?

Now that you know what a wedding planner is, what exactly is a dream book? Literally translated, it means "book of dreams," and it serves as a collection of inspirations. What can you record in it? Essentially, anything that catches your eye—designs of wedding dresses, suits, venue decorations, or ring styles. Of course, a wedding planner can also function as a dream book, but some couples prefer to keep them separate. Once again, we see that organizing a wedding is a matter of individual preferences for the couple. This just confirms that there are as many opinions as there are people, so don’t worry about them. Ultimately, the most important thing on your wedding day is the happiness of the couple.

Wedding planner - which one to choose?

There are many types of wedding planners available—both paper and online. So, which one should you choose? Well, both options have their pros and cons.
A physical planner allows you to keep all important documents—contracts, permits, payment confirmations—in one place. Additionally, the couple can personalize it, making it a beautiful keepsake. However, it can be bulky and usually doesn’t fit in a handbag. It’s also at risk of being damaged or lost.
On the other hand, an online wedding planner can help with all necessary calculations and is always accessible. You can easily make backups to ensure your notes aren’t lost. However, creative couples might see the lack of personalization and decoration as a downside.

Wedding planner - what is it for?

The wedding planner is designed to make organizing the wedding and reception as easy as possible. The couple should write down as much information as they can related to their day. It’s important to include their expectations and establish priorities—what's more important, the entertainment for guests or the car that will take you to the venue? How much do you want to allocate for the wedding rings? These are personal matters, which is why it’s so important for the couple to create their wedding planner together.
