If you're planning your wedding and want to make the most of Cyber Week, including Black Friday, Cyber Monday and all of the wedding deals that often come this time of year, this guide will show you how to take advantage of the savings while staying intentional and, of course, super stylish. From bridal accessories to honeymoon bookings and beyond, here’s how to make Cyber Week work for your wedding.
I may be known for making wedding garters here at The Garter Girl, but after nearly 20 years in the wedding industry, I’ve seen it all, and I’ve learned a lot about how to help brides save money and feel less overwhelmed during the planning process, which is exactly what I’m sharing with you.
These tips are for anyone who loves finding value, whether you're planning a high-end, ultra luxury wedding celebration or keeping a close eye on costs, because no matter your wedding budget, everyone appreciates a good deal.
From finding thoughtful gifts and stylish accessories to knowing what you should and shouldn’t ask your vendors, here are my favorite ways to make Cyber Week, including Black Friday, work for your wedding while keeping things calm and on track.
Let’s start with email lists, because they’re often the first place wedding brands share their Cyber Week sales.
Brands typically share Cyber Week discounts with their email subscribers first. If there’s a wedding brand or boutique you’ve been watching, get on their list now. You can unsubscribe later, but you can’t go back in time if you miss the sale. Think of this as your low-effort way to stay in the loop.
Next up is social media, where many wedding vendors post flash sales and last-minute Cyber Week updates.
Many wedding vendors and small brands post surprise discounts and time-sensitive offers to TikTok, Instagram and Facebook. If you’ve already booked your main vendors, keep an eye out anyway. You never know what limited-time extras they might be offering to current or new clients.
If you’re looking for handmade wedding finds or unique accessories, Etsy is a great place to search during Cyber Week.
Many Etsy sellers offer promotions on items like personalized gifts, veils, bridal party accessories, printable downloads, and wedding signage. Since many Etsy shops are small businesses, you’ll also be supporting creators who care about your big day.
When it comes to Cyber Week wedding shopping, don’t forget that there’s more to plan for than just the ceremony.
Your wedding wardrobe doesn’t start and end with your dress. Use this time to pick up outfits or accessories for your engagement photos, bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, bachelorette trip, or post-wedding brunch. Shopping during Cyber Week can help you save on all the moments when you want to feel amazing.
Cyber Week is also the perfect time to find thoughtful and meaningful gifts for your wedding party, family, and vendors.
Yes, Cyber Week overlaps with the holiday shopping season, but it’s also a smart time to grab meaningful gifts for your bridesmaids, parents, and even your vendors. Think personalized gifts, getting-ready robes, or even something sentimental for your partner.

You might not see Cyber Week discounts from service-based wedding vendors, but you can still ask about smaller packages or adjusted offerings.
Most wedding vendors provide a service, which means their product is their time. And time is not something that goes on sale. If you're hoping to save money, instead of asking for a discount, consider asking your vendor if they offer a smaller package or fewer hours. Many will be willing to work with you if you’re clear about your needs and respectful of their work.

Cyber Week is also a smart time to book or plan for your honeymoon, especially if you’re looking for travel or outfit deals.
Travel brands also tend to offer Cyber Week discounts. If you already know where you’re headed, it’s worth checking for flight and hotel deals. Or start with the honeymoon wardrobe and pick up a few outfits that will make your trip feel extra special.
Before you dive into those Cyber Week sales, keep in mind a few smart shopping reminders to avoid buyer’s regret.

It’s easy to get swept up in Cyber Week frenzy. But just because it’s on sale doesn’t mean you need it. Stay focused on what truly matters to you and what fits your wedding style. A good "deal" is only worth it if it’s something you’ll actually use and love.
Cyber Week can be a powerful time to shop for your wedding when you know where to look and what to expect. From signing up for email lists and checking vendor social media, to exploring handmade finds on Etsy and planning outfits for more than just the ceremony, there are so many thoughtful ways to take advantage of the deals without falling into overwhelm.
It’s also a great time to shop for meaningful gifts, plan your honeymoon, or explore tweaks to your vendor packages if you're looking to save. The key is to stay focused on what truly supports your vision and your values.
Here are some of the most common question that I get about Cyber Week, Black Friday, and your wedding.
Should I wait for Cyber Week to book my wedding vendors?
Not necessarily. Most vendors don’t offer discounts on their services because their work is based on time, not product. If you’re looking to save, ask about custom packages or fewer hours rather than waiting for a sale.
Is it too early to shop for honeymoon outfits?
Not at all. In fact, Cyber Week is a great time to buy things for your honeymoon wardrobe, especially if you already know where you’re going or what the vibe will be.
Can I return items I buy during Cyber Week?
Always check the return policy before you buy. Some Cyber Week deals are final sale or come with stricter return rules, especially from small or independent sellers.
Planning your wedding should feel thoughtful, not rushed. Cyber Week can be a helpful opportunity to check things off your list, save money where it makes sense, and stay on top of your style.
