I'm think I'll have to take up a marriage loan for our grand wedding!

You don't have to give up on your dreams. I don't say that taking a loan is the best decision, but don't dismiss this option. However, I'd not suggest you to go for those quick money offers, because you'll have to pay off too much later. There are some strategies to increase you score. The https://bnlfinance.com/how-to-get-a-wedding-loan-with-bad-credit/ article states some of the tips you'll probably could apply.

We have to cut down some expenses, because I obtained a couple refusals due to a bad credit score. Now I think maybe it's even better. Nevertheless, there are some things I can't go without. It's one of the best days of our life, I'd like it to be perfect.

If you don't have to do it - better don't. I had a car loan and it took me 5 years to give back, Unpleasant experience.

I won't do this but good luck!

Hiring good wedding planners is yet another overhead cost

I second that, but you can opt for a package too. There are a lot of wedding planners who can execute plans under budget too!

Thanks guys! Both your ideas seem really helpful

Why don't you save some money by going digital? You can send e-invites. There are many platforms that allow you to create one for yourself. And Of course, it’s alright to have a few invitations printed keeping the elders in mind, but for the rest, it’s time to skimp because wedding invites can really cost a bomb!

Umm! You maybe can cut down on the guest list and also avoid marrying in the peak season because you won't be in a position to negotiate well then! This was you can save some penny and also maintain that grand level!
