Marriage savings x 2

Good Afternoon!
Very new here so be gentle.
I got engaged in September 2013, having discussed with my wife to be we agreed 2016 would be the most feasible year to get married.
Low and behold, she has found the 'perfect' venue for our wedding and the price is just about affordable. The only problem is its June 2015.
In order to meet my high level budget we are having to save 1/3 of our current wage from now until the date, the saving doesn't impact on our day to day costs, but does on our misc items like eating out etc.
I am really after some advice on where to save money ON the wedding and how better to save money FOR the wedding.
As a side not I refuse to lend money
Cheers,
Andy

Come on over to the weddings/anniversaries board - there are many of us over there scrimping and saving and cutting corners where we can.
And congratulations on your engagement!Officially saved enough to cover the cost of our wedding! :A0 -
