The 5 biggest cost drivers in Savannah
- Guest count. Every guest is ~$150–$250 in catering, bar, rentals, and stationery. Trimming the list 20 guests saves $3–$5K instantly.
- Day of week. A Friday or Sunday wedding in Savannah can be 20–30% cheaper than a Saturday.
- Season. Peak (Mar–May, Oct–Nov) is the most expensive. Off-season (Jul–Aug, Jan) is the cheapest. Late spring (Apr–May) is peak. Summer is heat-and-humidity territory.
- Bar style. Full open bar vs. beer + wine + signature is a $5–$10K swing for 150 guests.
- Florals. Heavy installations (arches, ceiling, aisle) easily double a flower budget.
How to save 20%+ on a Savannah wedding
- Marry in the Jul–Aug, Jan off-season.
- Pick a Friday or Sunday in any month.
- Use the venue's preferred vendor list — most negotiate discounts.
- Beer + wine + one signature cocktail instead of full bar.
- One real bouquet for photos, dried/silk for everything else.
- Skip the favors (~95% are left on tables).
