If you're on a relatively tight budget, cheap wedding decorations may be just what you need to get the party started. Not everyone has a lot of money to spend on wedding hall decorations and other decorations. Luckily, not everything costs a fortune. All you need is a hint of creativity and some clever ideas to spice up the event.

First of all, you must define what your definition of 'cheap' really is. To some, cheap wedding decorations shouldn't cost any more than $5.00 to $25.00 each. To others who bring home more money, an overall budget of $2,000.00 may seem like chump change.

In any event, there are plenty of ways you can make sure that your wedding is just as memorable, regardless of what you spend to make it that way.

Food: Decorating your tables with fruits and baked goods will add a touch of fun and excitement to the entire area. You might consider placing bowls of fruit in the center of each table. If your wedding is around the holidays, consider placing a plate of decorative sugar cookies and gingerbread men in the center of each table. Chocolates may also be used at any time of year, especially around Valentine's Day when love is in the air more than ever.

Flowers : Cheap wedding decorations don't get any more inexpensive than this. To make things easier, purchase artificial flowers from a local department store. If you have any flowers in your home, you may use those as well. Depending on the size of the area and the amount of tables you plan to decorate, the price you pay will vary. However regardless of how many decorations you use, you certainly won't go broke with this idea.

Balloons: Balloons can definitely add a touch of elegance if done the right way. It's all about color and size. Make sure that you choose colors that accent the theme of your wedding. White's, silver's, pink's, blue's, and yellow's are always a winner. The ribbon you choose will also go a long way. All in all, this idea won't cost you anymore than around $10.00 to $15.00 tops.

Your Cake - A cake is always a nice distraction. For a really beautiful reception, consider placing your cake in the middle of the room to act as a centerpiece.

Table Cloths: Table cloths in general are inexpensive and can contribute wonderfully to the look and feel of any wedding. These particular cheap wedding decorations are even cheaper when you make them on your own.
