Poundland launch a wedding range… and offer top tips to have YOUR dream big day on a budget
The cheap and cheerful retailer will release the purse friendly collection on June 12
POUNDLAND is launching a wedding range targeting brides who are on a budget.
The cheap and cheerful retailer will release the purse friendly collection on June 12 – and the range includes everything from bouquets to invites all priced at £1.
The line has the bride-to-be covered in the run-up to the big day and for the honeymoon – with handy wedding planning journals and “Mr and Mrs” luggage tags also part of the collection.
Poundland has appointed its first ever wedding planner to tie in with the launch.
Sophie Bladen has landed the role, and she's provided a list of tips for savvy couples looking to save money.
Sophie will hold a live Facebook Q&A when the range launches next month.
Couples are being asked to send questions to her at Poundland's headquarters in Wolverhampton.
Sophie’s top tips for a bargain wedding
1. Make sure you’ve got everything in check before the big day
There is no better way to organise yourself then writing down a to-do list. Use a wedding planner book with individual sections to keep things clear.
2. Seating plan sorted
The seating plan is a tough one, but once its sorted decorate plain place cards to fit in with your theme.
3. Save on signs
On the big day itself ensure you make it clear where your guests should be heading throughout.
Putting up signs mean you don't need someone pointing them in the right direction.
4. Beautiful bouquet on a budget
Nothing says bride like a beautiful bouquet of flowers - but they can be pricey.
Ditching real blooms for faux flowers helps reduce cost dramatically.

5. Frugal finishing touches
The finishing touches are really important when it comes to table settings.
Crystal scatter gems and silver speckled tea light holderswith fairy lights inside make a real impact without breaking the bank.
6. Set off (and save) in style
The final part to a wedding is the honeymoon.
Well, with everything you've saved on your big day you should have enough to treat yourself.
Poundland's wedding range launches on June 12, items in the collection are all priced at £1.
