Planning a wedding, or know someone who is? You're going to want to pay a visit to your local Sainsbury's store this March, as the supermarket is launching a stylish wedding collection, and it all costs under £16. Proving you don't need to spend a fortune to add the decorative finishing touches for your special day, the range includes everything from a commemorative guest book to a table plan, which are all a steal compared to similar designs available from stores such as The White Company and Not On The High Street.
The collection is launching just in time for the royal wedding, and has taken some inspiration from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's taste, following rumours that the wedding will be "white and classic" with a few "quirky elements". Think arrow shaped carnival lighting (£16), heart-shaped faux floral decorations (£12), and a floral arrangement of pretty pink peonies (£8) - Meghan's favourite flower.
Sainsbury's is launching a wedding collection
Sainsbury's is not the only retailer catering for brides on a budget; Primark has also launched a collection of wedding and hen do paraphernalia, such as a wedding cake topper (£5), a wedding fund money jar (£5) and Mr and Mrs embroidered wedding towels (£7).
