2. Try to negotiate a deal

January and February are not typical months for holding a wedding party, so most of the dates are usually off-peak. That means that they are also cheaper than the dates during summer. You are more likely to choose the better place, better caterers and suppliers, as they are not too busy during winter. The fact that most of the restaurants are free during the winter season, gives you a chance to negotiate a deal. In other words, you can get some money off offer, or “to get more for the same price” offer. You can even get a further discount on guest accommodation. Just, consider that the dates that are close to Christmas can be very expensive, so try to avoid them.
