Top 10 Ways to Save on Your Outdoor Wedding at King Street Orchard

Planning your dream wedding should not mean starting your marriage buried in debt. In the Top 10 Ways To Save On Your Wedding, King Street Orchard, located in Redlands is being used as an example.

If you are searching for affordable outdoor wedding venues in Redlands, King Street Orchard offers a rare combination of elegance, flexibility, and value. Nestled in the heart of Redlands, our restored 1906 farmhouse, surrounded by lush citrus groves, delivers that coveted rustic-chic atmosphere without the luxury-resort price tag.

Here are ten smart ways to maximize your wedding budget while still creating a stunning celebration:

1. Embrace the Natural Scenery

With over 400 citrus trees and breathtaking views of the San Bernardino Mountains, nature becomes your décor. The vibrant greenery and golden sunsets reduce the need for excessive florals and rentals.

2. Book a Hybrid Package

Our Reception Package starts at just $3,100 for up to 60 guests and includes tables, chairs, and linens. Bundled essentials eliminate surprise rental costs.

3. Choose a Micro Wedding

A smaller guest list equals major savings. Our micro wedding venue option for 40 guests creates an intimate event space that feels meaningful, not minimal.

4. Lean into DIY Wedding Decor

Rustic settings pair beautifully with simple, handmade touches. Candles, greenery, and personal signage go further in an orchard than in a ballroom.

5. Schedule Off-Peak Dates

Friday evenings or Sunday afternoons often offer additional flexibility and savings.

6. Simplify the Menu

Consider curated buffet options or food trucks. Fewer guests also mean reduced catering expenses.

7. Skip Excess Lighting

Golden hour in the orchard is nature’s spotlight. Use it to your advantage for photos and ambiance.

8. Repurpose Ceremony Décor

Move florals and arches directly to the reception area to maximize every dollar.

9. Keep Entertainment Streamlined

A talented DJ can replace a large band while still filling the dance floor.

10. Focus on Experience Over Extras

Guests remember warmth, laughter, and connection — not chair upgrades.

Your wedding should reflect your love story, not financial stress. At King Street Orchard, affordability and beauty truly go hand-in-hand.
