Couples born in the 1990s DIY their own personalized wedding, which saves money and is romantic! Make your own wedding shoes, make your own wedding candy boxes and return gifts, and negotiate with your own ball company to decorate the wedding scene...
Getting married is a major event in life, but wedding company expenses that often cost tens of thousands of yuan make couples feel distressed. Yang Min and Wang Guoguo, a young couple born in the 1990s, wanted to hold a DIY wedding with the idea of ??"saving money".
They DIYed wedding shoes, gift boxes, return gifts, floral arrangements and other wedding supplies. This cost-effective and romantic approach has attracted the envy of many young couples.
Talking about the original intention of DIY wedding, Yang Min said: "The main reason is that our budget is limited and we think DIY is more fun." Yang Min, 24, works as a customer serviceWang Guoguo, who is the same age as him, is working as a taxi driver. Their monthly income is fairly stable, but because they don’t work long hours, they don’t have much savings.
"Nowadays, most young people choose wedding companies to hold weddings, but we think it is too expensive, ranging from at least 20,000 to 100,000 yuan." Yang Min said that the weddings held in this way have no personality, "We Both of us advocate individuality and creativity, and an expensive and uncreative wedding ceremony did not meet our requirements, so we decided to DIY a wedding."
Starting in early March this year, Yang Min began to collect DIY wedding information on the website, browse wedding supplies on Taobao, and on weekends, she shuttled to the small commodity wholesale market for "purchasing."
Although it is a DIY wedding, Yang Min also excludes some options that cannot be DIYed, such as wedding photos, restaurants, wedding dresses, etc. "Those that cannot be DIYed will cost close to 10,000 yuan, and others can be saved if possible. She started with wedding shoes. As she spoke, Yang Min took out a pair of high-heeled shoes studded with pearls from the shoe cabinet. "On the Internet, like this Shoes generally cost about 300 yuan. I made this pair of shoes myself for only 110 yuan: 30 yuan for white high heels, 80 yuan for pearls and rhinestone accessories. ”
"I bought a pair of ordinary white high-heeled shoes and some inlaid pearls and rhinestones." Yang Min said that the materials can be purchased online. Glass rhinestones come in heart-shaped, round, oval and other shapes. Prices range from a few cents to a dollar. "This pair of shoes took two days to complete, and it took a lot of thought. But you can wear the shoes you designed to get married, which is also very romantic." Yang Min said that this pair of wedding shoes is of great collection significance and is a substitute for other purchased shoes. Incomparable.
In addition to the wedding shoes, she also made the wedding candy box and return gifts herself. "These wedding accessories can be bought online." Yang Min said that she bought 120 boxes of semi-finished products, each costing only 1.2 yuan, which was half the price of finished products (3 yuan).
In addition, she also made a homemade return gift: a bunch of colorful hairpins. "There are various tutorials online, and the cost is only a few cents. After all, compared with issuing a card for four or five yuan each, I have saved nearly a hundred yuan."
But what makes Yang Min most proud is that she contacted a wedding ball company and directly saved 3,000 yuan in wedding decoration fees.
“The wedding company will charge at least 6,000 yuan for the decoration of a wedding site.” Yang Min and Wang Guoguo felt that the price was a bit expensive, so they decided to bypass the wedding company and negotiate directly with the lottery company. Soon, they found a suitable lottery company online. "The boss is a young man about our age. He listens toThey said we wanted to have a DIY wedding and they were very supportive. In the end, they only charged us 3,000 yuan. "Yang Min said that she and her husband were very excited to directly save 3,000 yuan. For this reason, the two of them also summed up an experience: Don't be afraid of not being able to do it, just be afraid of not being able to think of it.
Yang Min said that the next step is to consider how to DIY flower arrangements. "The wedding venue needs flowers to decorate, and bouquets, boutonnieres, wedding car bouquets, and roadside flowers are all indispensable. Buying flowers directly from a florist yourself will save a lot of money than providing them by a wedding company."
