So it's a good idea to cut costs where you can as every saving adds up.
Bride-to-be Bethany Youds, who lives near Edinburgh, is set to tie the knot on June 17 this year.
And she's already been bagging some wedding bargains with a huge Shein haul.
Bethany has ordered clothes from the budget retailer before so decided to give it a try for some wedding pieces.
And she wasn't disappointed, hailing her cheap purchases for their "amazing quality" and only spending £55 in total.
Sharing her haul on TikTok (), she said: "Last week I did an order on Shein for some wedding bits and it's just arrived so I want to show you what I got because some of it is actually so cute."
First up was a £3.50 clear bag with floral detailing for her little sister to use as flower girl.
Bethany said: "She will be six when she's my flower girl and I thought this was just so cute to make her a little kit thing for the day.

"It was super cheap and it's better than a gift bag. She can use it again and again."
She added: "Second thing I got was this little hair comb. It is quite small but it was only like £3.
"I'm one of those people who would rather have options on the day than be panicking on the morning of and deciding I don't like that, going total bridezilla.
"So I bought this because I thought it was cute and it's not the end of the world if I don't wear it."
The Scots bride also picked up gold metal dishes for table decor and a pair of rhinestone-embellished sunglasses (£5.75) to personalise with their wedding details for guests to pose in.
But the clear winner of the wedding haul was a selection of gold heart table number holders which cost just £4 each.
Bethany gushed: "I'm actually obsessed. It's like, again, the quality.
"They're so nice and shiny and cute. It's actually for pictures. I'm going to print out black and white pictures and use them as decor on tables.
"I got them in three different heights. I've ordered quite a lot of them to be honest, I don't know how many I got.
"But they were cheap and I just thought they would be super cute with black and white pictures all around.
"I'm all for that, making it so personal. I want loads of photos around and loads of personal touches."
Bethany urged her fellow brides to give Shein a chance if they're on the hunt for quality items at a reasonable price.
Speaking to the Scottish Sun Online, shey added: "The quality of it all is amazing and I got a lot for my money.
"With the current climate you’ve got to save money where you can especially when planning a wedding so I will definitely be having a look to see what else I can get."
And her fellow brides are already huge fans, with her video racking up more than 82,000 views.
One gushed: "I never even thought about what to get my niece and daughter for flower girls. Love that idea."
Another wrote: "Cute wedding bits."
