Wedding Planning for the East Texas and the Golden Triangle
On today’s Southeast Texas Wedding Trends, we look at ideas for brides on a budget.
For Southeast Texas brides-to-be, the big day seems like it comes with a big price tag – but it doesn’t have to. The season’s top wedding trends pair elegance and affordability with options to make an event that is uniquely “you.”
To stay within your budget, follow these Southeast Texas wedding trends.
* Outdoor weddings offer romance at a reasonable price
Perhaps no other setting is more romantic than the outdoors. Mother Nature provides the best backdrop for your special occasion. Outdoor weddings can be more affordable as parks or gardens typically offer rental areas at a reasonable rate. Know a relative with a beautiful yard? Ask them if you can host your wedding there. Then all you have to do is rent the supplies, such as chairs, tents and archways from your chosen Southeast Texas wedding rental company. There are several great Southeast Texas outdoor wedding venues like The Brown Estate Orange and Clifton Event Complex in Beaumont.
* Create a fun reception environment for your SETX wedding reception for less than you think
The reception is often the largest cost of hosting a wedding. Budget-wise brides are choosing locations where you can provide your own food and drinks. Food stations, rather than a typical buffet, can be set up around the reception room offering different types of food, such as salad bar, pasta and desserts. You can rent everything you need to keep food fresh and serve it in style so you don’t have to worry.
Some Southeast Texas wedding venues, like The Brown Estate in Orange, have a great reputation for sharing ideas that help keep their brides on budget.

* Add personal SETX wedding accessories for a lasting look
The gown is an important part of being a beaming bride, but it can be a large expense.
Get a beautiful look with plenty of personality, without breaking the bank. Start with a simple gown and accessorize it to suit your tastes. Add a splash of color with a bright sash or flashy shoes. Hair accessories provide a fashionable option at little cost. Shorter veils are very popular and cost much less than longer options – or skip the veil altogether.
* Create homemade floral arrangements
Once you add up the bouquets, centerpieces, boutonnieres and more, your floral expense can be shocking. Brides are choosing to take a personal approach by gathering friends and family to create the flower pieces. Get together and create the masterpieces for the big day while enjoying food, drink and each other’s company. It’s a great way to bond and save money, while creating something beautiful and meaningful.
