Happy new year everyone! And an extra big happy new year to anyone getting married in 2020 like me, it's our year finally! Long time no speak, almost 3 months to be exact so I figured it was time for a little Thrifty Bride catch up.

A lot of planning goes into making a wedding happen. From making it your perfect day to organising the logistics of things, even a small and relaxed wedding like ours requires a little planning commitment. Wedding suppliers can be booked up years until advance so it pays to be on the ball and get things booked in, but when your booking things so far in advance doubt starts to creep in and we begin wondering if we’ve made the right choices. Here’s why it’s perfectly O.K. and totally normal to doubt all your wedding choices.

When it comes to wedding planning a lot of people are now choosing to go digital. From paperless invites and RSVP by text message to Pinterest mood boards and wedding websites. Going paper free is now the way to go. But if you're ditching the traditional paper wedding planners and invites how are you supposed to easily keep track of everything and keep your guests informed? That's where Bimble.com comes in!

It's so easy to get wrapped up in certain wedding trends when you start seeing them everywhere, from fellow brides on Instagram to Pinterest and even family and friends weddings. It easy to get a case of FOMO when it comes to weddings but there are definitely some trends out there that are completely unnecessary and if you're looking to have a budget wedding or cut back on costs these are the 10 trends you can definitely do with out.
