If your budget is tight, the main thing is to choose the right venue. Look for a hall that already looks good on its own: with beautiful walls, good lighting, interesting architecture. Then you won't have to spend extra on decor. Cafes, mini-hotels, even outdoor summer venues work great - they're usually cheaper than traditional wedding palaces, but look just as stylish 😊
With decorations, go for minimalism, but do it with taste. Instead of expensive flower arrangements, use fresh flowers from a florist or even from the market - it'll be way more budget-friendly. Hang fabric (you can use regular pretty fabric, not special decor) on columns or part of a wall, put up candles, garlands. I'd also suggest asking friends to help with the decorating - when people do it with love, it always turns out more heartfelt and warm.
Don't forget that at a wedding, what matters most is the people and the atmosphere, not the amount of decorations. Good music, tasty food, and fun company will outshine any expensive decorations. I've noticed at my own place that the nicest evenings are when everything's simple but done from the heart 👍
Don't try to redo a completely trashed venue thinking you'll save money - the renovation will end up costing more than just finding a decent place to begin with. Another great trick is DIY arches and garlands made from cardboard or fabric - they look stylish and come down easily later if the venue does get rented out again. The key thing is not to go overboard with a ton of expensive floral arrangements; one beautiful installation at the newlyweds' table works way better than small bouquets scattered everywhere.
