The first, and the most difficult step. For a desi wedding, cutting down the guest list can lead to a battle that may last for generations. However, you need to do that.

Cut down your list 20% at a time, until you achieved a balanced guest list that you can be happy with. Your wedding will not suffer in the absence of your mamu ki saali ka beta & bahu.
You don’t need Irfan Ahson to cover your wedding, just ask your photographer friend with a DSLR camera to take clicks. Anyone with a decent sense of design harmony will be able to take great pictures. This could be their wedding present to you. You can have them made into album by a professional editor later. It will get your photography costs down. Your family and friends will have some skills or contacts that can help you minimize the wedding costs.
If your guests are under a hundred, you can manage catering expenses easily. You can get ready-made food boxes at very affordable prices. You can also contract some understated, small-scale caterer to prepare the wedding food. If you go for the boxes route, the waste will be minimal, and you won’t have to arrange for crockery. Look for a family owned restaurant, and ask them to cater your wedding. They are usually accommodating to the budget needs. You can also purchase the ingredients yourself from the farmer’s market, or put a reliable cousin to do the task.
You don’t have to fill every visible space of the venue with flowers. Let some creative friend handle things. Or being a bride or groom, you can do some DIY projects to decorate your wedding. Switch real flowers with fabric swaths or fake flowers. It’s a careful task that requires an expert eye for flawless execution, so do your research well. Buy used décor, or just used tallow candles for cozy décor in winter season.
You can have your invites printed yourself. Just design a card online, and have them printed. Buy some envelopes and voila! You are good to go. Add some personal touches to these cards, and everyone will love them. You can also just send the invitation through email. They will not cost a thing, and you can get RSVPs quick. Sure, you might have to call people to ensure they check their email invite, but that’s a small price to pay right?
One of the people you know must have a great music sense, and equipment to prove it. So, hire them to DJ your wedding. You can also have a playlist made in advance and give it to your friend. It will both personalize the event, and you will get compliments for your taste in songs. You can pick the entrance songs that explain your feelings, and the nature of your relationship.

You can get the fabric you like, and have it made in any way you want. Yes, it’s risky, which is why you need a vendor you can really trust. Go for prints instead of embellishments, they are trending these days and look fantastic.
