Saving up

Scrimping and saving to get the wedding you want is normally high on the agenda, check out our cheap 'n' cheerful saving ideas to increase your wedding budget.

Just for a change

• Relax and forget everything for an hour or two by booking a restorative massage or alternative treatment. Training schools often offer them cheaply or ask around -- novices have to practice on others, even if they're nearly qualified. Or ring the governing body of a therapy for your cheapest option.
• Take up a short evening class to learn a new language -- particularly if you're taking a honeymoon abroad and want to impress the locals (or simply your new spouse). Or you could try a short course in anything from upholstery classes to candle-making.
• Cancel or sell your gym membership on to a friend and take up jogging. It's cheap, you can buy some trendy sports gear to impress the neighbours, and it'll help tone you up for the wedding and after. Best of all, it's a great stress-buster...
• Be a tourist for the day. Travel on the open-top bus around town and snuggle-up on deck, take a cruise down the local canal or river or visit the nearest fairground or amusement park and run about trying the most hair-raising rides.
