Got a tight budget for your wedding? Or maybe you’re not into big weddings. If you want to keep it short and sweet - and affordable - a cake and punch wedding reception could be perfect for you. You’ll have time to make an entrance, have a few toasts, then cut the wedding cake. If you’re into it, you can even toss the bouquet or garter and open the dance floor for an hour.

Most wedding experts say that 50% of your budget should go to your food and venue. But what if your budget is smaller than average? If you’re only spending ten thousand dollars - is five thousand enough to rent a venue and pay for a caterer? What if your budget is even smaller? Maybe your budget isn’t big enough for a traditional caterer. But don’t get discouraged - there’s lots of other options.
