More and more people are opting for trendy wedding options. One of the greatest options available now are breakfast or brunch weddings. Not only is it unique, but you can even save money if you plan properly. Here are some things to talk to your caterer about when considering a brunch wedding. 

Reasons to Opt for a Brunch Wedding

Breakfast weddings save save you money in a variety of different areas. They also allow for you to spend the entire day celebrating your big day with friends and family. Plus, bacon!

Breakfast foods are significantly cheaper. Why pay a baker for an elaborate wedding cake when you can create a tower of doughnuts or pastries? You can still serve breakfast appetizers and bagels. You also have plenty of beverage options. You can offer beautiful coffee, tea, and juice options. Don't leave out the liquor! You can offer mimosas, bloody marys, and maybe even spiked coffee, beer, or wine. You usually won't have to pay for a full bar, though! 

Morning weddings offer venues that are cheaper than other options simply because most people prefer evening weddings. You might even save money on lighting and flowers depending on the venue. 

Brunch weddings tend to run shorter than other weddings. You won't have to pay as much for staff who work by the hour. Plus, you get to enjoy the rest of your day. 

The best part of a brunch wedding is that you get more quality time with your spouse. Since you spent the day with friends and family, you get to spend the evening together! 

Things to Keep in Mind

You will have to prepare for a very early morning. Keep the rehearsal dinner festivities to a minimum so that you are well-rested. The morning may even feel a bit rushed. Most people know that even weddings at a later time can run late, so stick to a strict schedule. You should also know that a brunch wedding won't necessarily be less expensive. It offers opportunities for you to save money, but that depends on your taste. 

Stay Open-minded

You can have breakfast foods at any time of the day. Even if you do choose to have an afternoon or evening wedding, think about serving breakfast for your guests. You can also offer more traditional options with some breakfast treats at the beginning or end of the events. It's your day, and the options are limitless.
