May 2025 Wedding Tips Archive – Budget, Cake, Rings & More

If you’re scrolling through May 2025 on Bristol Wedding News Hub, you’ll see a mix of real‑world advice that cuts through the fluff. From stretching a tight budget to picking the perfect ring, each post is built for couples who want to plan smarter, not harder.

Budget‑Friendly Ideas

We kicked off the month with a guide on low‑budget wedding decorations that still look pricey. The piece walks you through where to splurge (like lighting) and where to save (cheap ribbons, DIY centerpieces). It even shares where to rent décor instead of buying it outright.

Feeding a crowd on a shoestring is another hot topic. The “Cheapest Way to Feed 100 People” article breaks down cheap menu choices, bulk buying tricks, and which catering services are worth the extra bucks. Real numbers help you compare options without guessing.

Flowers can drain a budget fast, so we added a “Realistic Wedding Budget 2024: What to Expect for Flowers” guide. It lists average costs, seasonal savings, and creative swaps like greenery‑heavy arrangements that still wow guests.

Thinking about DIY invitations? Our post on “Is It Cheaper to Do Your Own Wedding Invites?” lays out hidden costs of paper, printing, and postage, then offers tips to avoid common money traps.

Style & Etiquette Guides

Cake lovers got two deep dives. The “Best Wedding Cake: How to Choose the Perfect One” article covers flavor trends, design options, and how to match cake size to your guest count. Meanwhile, “Traditional Wedding Cake Flavor” revisits classic fruitcake and why it still matters.

Ring spenders aren’t left out. We compared $10,000 and $20,000 rings, explaining what you actually get at each price point and how to decide if the cost matches your priorities.

Suit decisions sparked two posts. One answers the age‑old question “Does the Groom Buy the Ties?” and the other looks at who really picks the groom’s outfit, clearing up family pressure and budgeting tips.

Etiquette gets its spotlight with a clear answer to the save‑the‑date dilemma: “Is It Rude to Send One Without the Other?” This piece gives you a step‑by‑step plan for handling changing guest lists without awkward moments.

All these posts share a common thread: practical, no‑fluff advice that you can act on today. Whether you’re hunting for a cheap cake supplier, figuring out how many tiers feed 150 guests, or wondering how much of a $100k salary should go toward a ring, the May archive has you covered.

Bookmark the articles that fit your timeline, take notes, and start budgeting with confidence. Bristol weddings are already buzzing with ideas – now it’s your turn to turn them into reality.
