How to Save on Wedding Decor

May 7, 2026

Decor can be a major line item. Follow these tips for a beautiful space without the high price.

You can save on decor. Choose a venue that is already beautiful. A garden, a historic building, or a loft needs little decor. Use candles. A candle centerpiece is cheap and romantic. Use pillar candles in glass hurricanes for safety. Use greenery. A eucalyptus garland is cheap and full. Use for centerpieces or to line the aisle. Use high-impact, low-cost items. A balloon arch, a backdrop of fabric, or a large sign can be a focal point. Borrow decor from friends who have married. Hit up Facebook Marketplace. Use a table runner instead of a full tablecloth if the table underneath is beautiful. Use flowers from a grocery store in small bud vases grouped together. Use potted plants from a garden center. They are cheap and guests can take them home.
