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.

 Poundland will offer a 50 pack of place setting cards for just £1

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.

 The new wedding range also offers pretty finishing touches, such as these crystal scatter gems

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.

Last week, we showed you Poundland's new homeware collection and it was recently revealed that the budget chain sells 5,000 sex toys A WEEK.
